**Discussion begins at 5:30**
Since 1916, Boeing has been synonymous with safety and reliability. The company was responsible for the production of 100,000 airplanes for allied forces in WW2, the production of Air Force One, and revolutionizing air travel. The slogan was, “If it’s not Boeing, I’m not going”. Following a merger with McDonnell Douglas, experts agree that the company had a culture shift, in which perhaps finances were prioritized over safety. This all came to a head when Boeing did a rapid roll out of the 737 Max, in an attempt to keep up with their only competition, Airbus. Following a slew of poor decisions, there were two plane crashes, with 346 deaths. Since that time, a number of employees have come forward to report safety issues with Boeing and its contractor, Spirit Aerosystems. Things had been relatively quiet for Boeing, until this year when there have been a number of safety issues that have brought them back into the news. Following a 2.5 billion dollar loss, 50,000 lay offs, and a drop in stocks by 26% in the first quarter, two of the Boeing whistleblowers died under mysterious circumstances within 2 months of each other. Were these just unfortunate tragedies? Or was Boeing behind the mysterious deaths?
