  1. Don't believe him. Boeing is committed to a massive amount of contractual agreements. An employee told me everything.

  2. Okay thanks al international and community my family all brothers and sisters my family all also and all international and community my family all USA the government my family all freedom and Democratic policies my family all palatine the government my family all west bank and Gaza all the government my family all also and all from Gaza and jeursalem and all al Aqsa and all company and all airlines and all also export and import my family all brothers and sisters my family all also and all Humanity and all food policies and gas and all trucks and all car and bus and borders and immigration and hotel and food policies and my family all brothers and sisters my family all freedom and Democratic policies my family all peace OK thanks

  3. That plug door was probably fixed to the airplane with some duct tape or something.

  4. The boeing 747 engine incident and the Boeing 757 nose wheel incident, is in no way connected to the Boeing 737 Max 9 Plug Door incidents, they are all separate incidents.

  5. Don't be naive. No one cares After MBA James McNerney killed the culture of engineering. They only care for stock that appease the wall street.

  6. Boeing CEO made $21 million while Boeing lost $12 billion and got rid of 30,000 employees. Looks like the CEO is getting rich while the company fails.

  7. It's not difficult to find out what type of aircraft a particular airline operates, and while it's true that the flying public generally doesn't pay attention to it it's also true that high-profile incidents can change that. The Comet and the DC-10 both suffered from high-profile accidents, and sales never truly recovered.

  8. The airplane loosin a wheel is 31 years old. Had no relevance to the case

  9. Words only Calhoun. They dont mean anything.

  10. I say just slash the price on the seats near those places where the door could fly off. I guarantee you, people would buy those seats like crazy. They would not care, because people are not that bright

  11. Exactly what I thought. The conservative establishment thinking a "regulated state"
    is a bad thing (NOT!!) means more doors will blow off, more trains will crash,
    more people will get sick and die of bad water and dodgy doctors. And we will have
    Lenard Leo and his stacked Supreme Court and his billionaire backers to thank for it.

  12. Calhoun has been well trained by board members on how to act and say about Boeing to prevent leaking information about how poorly the planes are put together. To find the truth about quality control, the media needs to talk to the employees without managers being around to hear precisely what Calhoun is not telling the customers about safety. These planes leave the factory with many safety issues kept from the public. Multiple non-conformance problems are being recorded under one entry to prevent issues of transparency to the airline clients and to look good in the books for profitability. Calhoun should follow the same steps as the previous CEO, Dennis Muilenburg, took, which is to "say you are sorry" and take early retirement with 200M in the bank, full benefits, millions in shares, and lay low until the air clears. This is the Boeing's way! The only way to fix this company is by removing the dead wood and putting people in place who know what they are doing. Unfortunately, the employees who knew how to build these aircraft correctly left the company, and others retired sooner than expected for the same issues being discussed today. Who is the next CEO of Boeing going to be? Stay tuned!

  13. The media love all this!😂

  14. Does not reflect well on the FAA's "oversight." If the bureaucracy fails at its job, its time to change out the bureaucrats.

  15. So I'm going to show you guys the greed of the United States just watch this video when do these corporate CEOs fit your life first and say we're going to take this plane out the air because people's lives are more important

  16. DEI hires they don’t hire on merit and qualifications they hire on Diversity in color. This is Bidenomics 😊 soon you’ll have blind pilots good luck America. Alaskan Airlines has a DEI lawsuit 😮

  17. Washington State is going to turn into a homeless camp .

  18. I worked for Boeing on the 737 Max. When I think of Boeing, all I can think of is lies. They put $ first and safety last. I worked there for 13 years. They need to shut that place down.

  19. 100 percent confident. then what you call the door fall out.

  20. Boeing CEO wouldn’t fly on a Boeing

  21. Boeing CEO wouldn’t fly on a Boeing

  22. Boeing is a disgrace and at this rate will be needing a tax payer bailout

  23. maybe stop the dei wokie hiring this isnt costco

  24. Nothing going to change….CEO says crap like…"We'll take a hard look at ourselves and make changes…"….nothing happens….time goes by…..another incident with Boeing happens again…..endless cycle with this company….

  25. They have cert safe for plane finish with the company and there no third party checking on their safe plane.

  26. instead of focusing on quality control, Boeing is spending time on rubbing politicians' elbows…

  27. How does a wheel fall off a plane! No saftey and quality control?

  28. Thats what happens when you hire from a temp agency .

  29. Just this month 4 incidents of planes falling apart: door plug falls off, engine catches on fire, screws on wing missing, wheel tire falls off right before take off

  30. This plane has already killed 350+ people and it's nothing short of a miracle that it hasn't killed more. Boeing circumvented any governmental oversight during the design and testng of this plane – were allowed to do it all themselves (do some research) – because corporations own this country. The US isn't really even a country – it's one big corporation. What matters is the stock market, shareholder earnings, and CEO pay. This whole freaking mess boils down to the rich trying to get richer and building, of all things, commercial airliners on the cheap. Between 2019 and 2021 Boeing got rid of 900 quality control people to save money. This all stems from a wildy out-of-control culture of greed in this country – period. If it's gonna cost enough to do it right, obviously, they'd rather kill you and your family. We have the proof – it isn't debatable. This CEO is a bag of wind.

  31. What will it take for Boeing to get it's priorities properly aligned?

  32. lol… did he fly on 737 MAX 9 to Capitol Hill?
