Boeing says the head of its 737 jetliner program is leaving the company immediately, paving the way for the aircraft maker to appoint new leadership at the troubled division.
The company said Wednesday that Ed Clark had been with Boeing for 18 years.
Katie Ringgold will succeed him as vice president and general manager of the 737 program, and the company’s Renton, Washington site.
If I were in charge of Boeing I’d ditch the 737 and just make a new plane that pilots have to retrain for. Trying to make this new plane fly like the old 737 via translation has caused many of the problems.
People got huge paydays while making these other planes. It was never about fixing problems, but taking out money for investors and then asking for bailouts.
