TL;DR

Boeing has ousted the head of its 737 Max program, Ed Clark, following quality control concerns after a door plug panel from a 737 Max 9 aircraft blew off during an Alaska Airlines flight. Elizabeth Lund has been appointed as the senior vice president of quality, while Katie Ringgold will take over as vice president and general manager of the 737 program and Renton, Wash. plant. This comes amid ongoing scrutiny of Boeing's quality control following the fatal crashes of 737 Max 8 aircraft in 2018 and 2019.
