    DAE remember that the OceanGate CEO bragged that Boeing helped them manufacture the sub?

    At the time Boeing disavowed, but who you gonna believe?

      Stockton Rush got a bargain on the carbon fiber he bought from Boeing because It was approaching the end of its shelf life and it was no longer acceptable for use in aircraft, let alone submarines.

      Rush also made a number of claims about the involvement of Boeing and other companies, claiming they were “involved in both the design and construction” of his submarine. Those claims were not true. Boeing made it clear that they had NO involvement in any part of the sub’s design or construction and they had simply sold Rush the carbon fiber.
