BOEING *USED* to be a crown jewel.

Now it's a barely functioning cordyceps zombie company.

(Note, arguing with me about *this* topic is "unwise". I was making and vetting blueprints in a part of my career, and when their engineers cant obey ASME 14.5Y, or factor tolerance zones correctly, *there is a problem*)

That's when you get abominations like the 737 MAX that require numerous failures, incidents and deaths before they do revisions that DO comply.
