Boeing and the FAA. Feels like an old couple that has to live under the same roof, so it is broken dishes and shouting all day long.


FAA was the battered spouse until Boeing had those two very public crashes. Thanks regulatory capture.


In a way, it's fortunate that the two MAX crashes happened overseas. If they had happened in the US, Boeing could have used its regulatory leverage to cover up the problem for a few more crashes.


Hmm I wonder how true that is (I have no personal experience/knowledge). I feel like two large crashes would get a very hard look by the NTSB.
