    John Oliver's Last Week Tonight segment on Boeing, tracing how it went from a quality engineering company to one tied to crashes and 'quality escapes'. It covers the 737 MAX failures and employee concerns about safety.

    HN recommends it as an entertaining and thorough overview of Boeing's decline whenever the company's safety problems are in the news.

    1. @stevenwooMar 2024· in “U.S. is said to open criminal inquiry into Boeing”

      It’s aimed at entertainment but the latest Last Week Tonight covered this and is on YouTube. Hope this links works from my phone this video

    2. @cube2222Aug 2024· in “NASA announces Boeing Starliner crew will return on SpaceX Crew-9”

      There is a very nice episode of Last Week Tonight by John Oliver diving into it, accessible on YouTube[0]. [0]: this video

    3. @BenderMar 2024· in “Boeing whistleblower found dead in US”

      I hope the company had no involvement in this. It would be bit futile given such a large audience has seen their employees state they won't fly in the aircraft they build.

    4. @gigel82Mar 2024· in “U.S. sues Apple, accusing it of maintaining an iPhone monopoly”

      > Apple should be another Boeing, a company that exists to embody its regulation That is pretty funny because you're right, Apple is becoming another Boeing - a profit-above-all-else corporate asshole and just like Boeing what we need is a hell of a lot more regulation, not less: this video

    5. @belterApr 2024· in “Another Boeing whistleblower says he faced retaliation for reporting 'shortcuts'”

      Kayak let's you select: this video Also historical flight data like on [LINK] Will let you go back hundreds of flights, and find the airplane the airline uses most of the time, for that flight.
