"Boeing Whistleblower Alleges 787 Planes at Risk of Mid-Air Breakup, CEO Testifies Before Congress"

TL;DR
Boeing engineer Sam Salehpour alleges that the company took "shortcuts" in the production of the 787 Dreamliner, potentially compromising its safety, and faced retaliation for speaking up. This adds to a growing list of current and former employees who claim Boeing ignored their concerns and retaliated against them. The company denies the allegations, but experts and whistleblowers say there's a disconnect between Boeing's management and the factory floor. Salehpour is scheduled to testify before a Senate subcommittee next week.
