John Oliver discusses how Boeing went from being a company known for quality craftsmanship to one synonymous with crashes, mishaps, and “quality escape.” Whatever that means.

I worked for Boeing for nearly 40 years. Retired in 2019. The problems all started when McDonnell Douglas “merged” with us. The whole business model changed from producing quality products to making more money. Period. Just as depicted in this piece. I saw it with my own eyes and lived it every day. So sad. I loved my company and it was like watching someone you love die from a slow and painful death.

"Started by the spirit of innovation, killed by greed." is pretty much a tagline for our modern society.

this is even scarier now that two boeing whistle blowers mysteriously died shortly after one another

The amount of footage from “Downfall: The Case Against Boeing” just shows how definitive it is on Boeing’s issues. Absolute masterpiece of a documentary in my opinion. I think everyone watching this episode should watch it

So what I'm understanding is.... Boeing stopped being Boeing, and became McDonell Douglas with a Boeing halloween costume. RIP Boeing 1916-1997

I'm an engineering student in Seattle, and took a class this quarter that brought in a bunch of Boeing employees as mentors for us. The midterm for the class was a presentation in front of about a dozen Boeing engineers. One group was presenting on fasteners, and got to the topic of torque wrenches, which tell you how tight a bolt is when you tighten it. This dude, standing in front of all these Boeing engineers, says "torque wrenches are important because if the bolt is too tight, then it will put stress on the bolt, and if it's too loose, then you could lose a part... like a door." The reactions from the mentors were priceless.

That CEO's statement of a "quality escape" reminds me of the parody interview of a shipbuilder saying that normally ship's fronts don't fall off.

"We went to Business school, get on our plane!" Wow that was scarily accurate.

My dad has a degree in chemistry and worked as a manager. He always said: "It is much easier to teach an engineer some accounting than to teach an MBA science."

"The employees feared retaliation for raising safety related concerns." -> Boeing whisteblower was just found dead today. I wonder if John needs to do a follow up video.

I had a great uncle that worked for McDonnell-Douglas (now BOEING) until he retired in the 1980/90’s. He is long passed away. He would not fly, even though he could do so for free, sighting he saw what happened on the assembly line. He would drive back to Saskatchewan, Canada from Seattle. More than 1200miles (1800km).

My uncle is an engineer at Boeing. I remember, about a decade ago, having a conversation with him about how the old board, who were mostly other engineers, were all gone. They were replaced by the usual corporate types who didn’t seem to understand that you can’t cut corners in aviation.

Xerox also dived when the corporate office left Rochester NY manufacturing to relocate in upscale Connecticut. There was a medieval poem lamenting ' the Lord and his Lady no longer join us in the great hall, but take their dinners in private alone". It's one of the saddest and truest statements of what happens when management leaves the ordinary workers

the skit at the end was hilarious. The one guy stealing all the missing bolts for his bolt addiction is genius
