And how they got there

The important thing was not to get “overly focused on the box,” Hopkins said in a 2000 interview with Bloomberg. “The box”—the plane itself—“is obviously important, but customers are assuming the box is of great quality.” Boeing went down the same road revamping the 777 (about to come out as the 777X) and tried to recycle the electrical load management system from an older 777 variant. The engineer who said that was not possible without compromising safety was terminated. Boeing then tried to pawn the whole implementation off on GE but folks there came to the same conclusion as the hapless engineer. Not sure where Boeing ran next with it.

(Some 'thanks' to Boeing nevertheless, for giving us'ns another opportunity to test our earlier chops re 'deductive-Reasoning') even though their entire Clusterfuck derives from their own $$$-over-ride of morality or just plain Consciousness. This Fact just may (yet?) prove illuminating to a gaggle of persons who See just what corruption looks-like and does to all. Shirley a soupçon of Hope there, eh? ..So then, next: 1) Ya goes with Fly by un-Disconnectable-transistors, Airbus {{suspense.. ...}} 2) Ya stays with poorly-Flyable/too-Heavy engines/wrong C.G.
