The US agency harshly criticised Boeing’s safety culture as well as ineffective oversight by the FAA.
The US National Transportation Safety Board criticized Boeing for inadequate training and oversight after a midair cabin panel blowout of a 737 MAX 9 in January 2024, highlighting failures in safety culture and FAA oversight. The incident led to a criminal investigation, a two-week grounding of the MAX 9, and a production cap, while Boeing’s new CEO faces significant challenges to restore safety and reputation.
