The Federal Aviation Administration said Monday, May 6, 2024, that it has opened an investigation into Boeing after the beleaguered company reported that workers at a South Carolina plant falsified inspection records on certain 787 planes. Boeing said its engineers have determined that misconduct did not create “an immediate safety of flight issue.”

    Seriously, I worked on a construction project in Charleston close to the Boeing plant that used some of the same contractors. More than one told me they won’t fly after what they saw (and this was pre-scandal).

      I believe you! Several years back, I had friends at LM and their stories were off the chain. You don’t want to know what goes on in the food production plants. You can look up some stories of chicken processing, if you never want to eat it again.
