Boeing will give $1 million to Joe Biden’s inauguration after president-elect chooses to take corporate contributions
The Boeing 737 MAX, grounded in March 2019 after two MAX accidents killed 346 people, will soon fly again in commercial traffic.
The once glorious company Boeing, the creator of the majestic 747, has been ruined by a management that neglected safety and quality to maximize shareholder value.
This creates a somewhat false impression of the real situation regarding the 737. The main issues with the 737 was the MCAS, a system designed to help the 737 Max have similar flight characteristics to earlier versions of the 737 in spite of having the engines located slightly higher and more forward than earlier versions and having more thrust, all of which affected the planes tendency to pitch up when thrust was applied in near stall conditions causing a stall. There was also an issue with the motor that moved the horizontal stabilizer. It was always planned for the 737-Max to be re-certified after these issues were resolved, even prior to Joes campaign contribution.
