This time, the problem was corroded valves, not software, a flaw that so dismayed NASA that they switched astronauts due to fly the Starliner to future SpaceX flights, reinforcing Musks dominance of the technology and deeply embarrassing Boeing. Every attempt to divine how Boeings culture went from exemplary to execrable tends to lead to a man who never laid his hands on Boeing, Jack Welch, the infamously bottom-line hatchet man, known as Neutron Jack for his ability to vaporize thousands of jobs at General Electric while its CEO from 1981 to 2001 before leaving with a $417 million exit payment. 130 E.

"His dedication to renewing the company's commitment to safety, quality and transparency has been critical in building regulator and customer confidence as Boeing returns the 737 MAX to service.

This month a lawsuit brought by shareholders alleging negligence by members of the board was settled when the directors insurers agreed to pay $237.5 million to Boeing, although the directors denied any wrongdoing and, bizarrely, some of that payment actually flows back to the directors as well as the stockholders who brought the suit.

This was added to the Air Forces prolonged travails with a replacement for its aging fleet of inflight refueling tankers, the Boeing KC-46, which should have been a straightforward conversion of a commercial jet, the 767, but has become a textbook case of a seriously mishandled Pentagon contract, making a mockery of the promised budget and deadlines: due to be in full production by 2017, it will not now reach that point until 2024, costing Boeing at least $551 million of its own money to fix. This gift is the latest in a storied partnership that has opened doors for WSUstudents and faculty to new opportunities to learn, innovate, and collaborate., No corporate partner has made a greater impact at WSU through philanthropic investment than The Boeing Company, said Mike Connell, vicepresident of WSUAdvancement and CEO, WSUFoundation.
