The FAA is currently considering whether or not it will do its job
Spoiler: they won’t
Sorry but this would be bad for “The Economy” so it’s a no go.
Since 2000, the FAA has levied about $163m in fines to Boeing for various safety and settlement violations, in some cases for failure to honor settlement agreements reached previously. This amounts to an average of $744,000 per year from 2000 through 2023. It’s peanuts for Boeing, the cost of doing business.
Warnings, threats, and deadlines followed by the tiniest of tiny slaps on the wrist. So what if a few planes full of peasants drop from the sky?
