      The ceo of Boeing was the ceo of my bosses last company. He cut every corner possible, took his paycheck and ran right before the company nose dived into the ground.

      Now that he’s CEO of Boeing he did the one thing he set out to do. Get the Max series in the air so he can get his fat paycheck. Hopefully nothing literally nose dives this time.

        The term is “GE flunkie.” Literally a fucking accountant without a moral compass.

            Holy cow, that whole tower of people has no sense of humor whatsoever.

            GE gets spookier the more I learn about it.

        Is that the guy who called Trump personally after the 2nd 737 Max crash crying to not allow the FAA to ground the plane?

        Meanwhile the rest of the world was like “fuck that shit” so basically for a few hours the Max could only fly in US airspace and finally Trump got the memo & told Boeing guy “sorry fam”.
