The fact that Boeing didn't widely publish the necessary information after the Lion Air crash is, IMO, more unconscionable than their initial decision to sell the 737-Max. I suspect Boeing's engineers were spending those weeks/months looking for a way to patch the software yet again to avoid being honest.
Well, it's too late now.
Boeing will very likely pay a higher price than if they'd just admitted it up front - much like VW and their dirty diesel.
Agree completely and why the CEOs comment about Safety first is so disingenuous and my prediction he or some other senior executive will need to fall on their respective sword to get this behind BA. Time for the board of directors to step in!
Look into past issues of this and always in the end come clean and admit your sins always HAS to happen , and the sooner the better. The charade playing simply doesn't work in this modern twitter / internet age
