The Crash of Two Airplanes and the Crisis at Boeing
FLYING BLIND The 737 Max Tragedy and the Fall of Boeing By Peter Robison (www.nytimes.com) Más...Same CEO and board mindset at the Big Three automakers that mostly caused their downfall. If it could be removed,including engineers and highest paid blue collar workers. Managers were rewarded for getting rid of people, not improving the process or the product.
Same Perp that led Boeing went to Ford Motor Co. Same results.
Very well written article... Everyone should read it. - Thanks for Sharing.
It will be an interesting read because it is not agreement with what my father's cousin told me. He began with Boeing out of University in 1940's and was terminated in 1974 with the SST program. He then bounced around west coast ending up as partner in contract engineering on B2 for Northrup. He said none of the companies had respect for engineers - they were commodity. I followed in his path as an engineer but his advice to my generation was go into something else - his son in business. He had little respect for Boeing and how they felt about engineers - 50 years ago.
