Well yeah we learned with the MCAS crashes that when they bought McDonnell Douglas they actually bought the toxic profits over everything else culture too.

This is not news. Boeing needs a microscope shoved down it's throat if we're to continue letting them make planes.

McDonnell bought Boeing with Boeing's money.
