Boeing Creates Special Website to Defend 787 Dreamliner Against New Whistleblower Safety Claims
Boeing faces heightened scrutiny as it admits to falsifying records regarding the inspection of its 787 Dreamliner aircraft. Amid ongoing federal investigations, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is now probing whether Boeing employees misrepresented inspection records. The company confirmed irregularities at its assembly plant in North Charleston, South Carolina. Boeing’s 787 vice president acknowledged the incident, emphasizing the importance of reporting discrepancies. While Boeing asserts the misconduct didn’t pose immediate flight safety risks, it faces repercussions for violating company policies. The broader context reveals Boeing’s persistent challenges; it’s been under intense scrutiny since an Alaska Airlines flight experienced a structural issue in January. The company’s safety practices and integrity have been questioned, leading to multiple federal investigations and Congressional attention. Additionally, the unfortunate deaths of whistleblowers like John Barnett and Joshua Dean have added to Boeing’s public relations crisis, fueling speculation and concern about the company’s practices and culture.
