"FAA Report Reveals Inadequate Safety Culture at Boeing"
TL;DR
A report for the US government has highlighted a "disconnect" in Boeing's safety management systems, with concerns about the implementation of safety-related messages and behaviors across the company. This comes after crashes involving Boeing planes in 2018 and 2019, and a recent incident where a section of one of its passenger jets blew off in mid-air. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) will review the findings, and has barred Boeing from expanding production of its popular 737 Max planes while investigating the company's manufacturing processes. The issues at Boeing are expected to lead to delays in delivering new planes to airlines, potentially causing ticket prices to rise.
