Hmmm.
Are they ever going to put the 737-800 Max back up in the air?
And what will it take for their to be some firings at the corporate level at Boeing?

Boeing has a big problem on their hands; that company has very little to be bullish about.

Was the whole design process flawed? It seems like it was. And if so, what other systems are critically compromised?

Most flights I'm on, are longer in the air than on the ground, so probably a higher percentage.

Airbus had cracked vertical stabilizer issues on the A330 series and the A380 had cracked wings. A recent mandatory inspection of the A380 engines was recently announced to look for cracked titanium engine parts.
A380 engine explosion
The 737 crack is only in the news because the 737 is in the news.
Issues are always found during inspections. It is why they do inspections.

Sounds like it's in the news because it's pretty important for the wings to stay attached to the fuselage while flying.

You are so incorrect it isn't even worth the time to correct this statement.
Trust me

It is also important that engines do not disentragate at 39,000 feet.

Interesting piece of information I learned recently in a training course. The instructor for the course also does training for Boeing managers. I asked him a question pertaining to Boeing and he told us that Boeing requires all of their vendors to supply parts with payment terms that they receive no payment until the aircraft is rolled out.
Being a vendor for Boeing has to be a nightmare.

Ehh, maybe it's just me but gun to my head, I'd pick engine disintegrate over wing falling off.

highly, extremely, unlikely, in fact I call bullshite, unless we're talking about paperclips, or maybe he, as a vendor, doesn't get paid until services are performed, couldn't operate that way

I guess all those quality control problems being publicized the last few years are starting to show. Damn I'd be nervous flying any newer Boeings nowadays.
Seem to all be with the 737 Max.

I had no reason to doubt the guy's claims. He's an independent instructor. I don't see how vendors can afford to work for Boeing if what he says is true.

No this has nothing to do w/ the Max. This was found on the NG.
