WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A U.S. senator overseeing aviation points on Monday urged the pinnacle of the Federal Aviation Administration to require transparency and accountability in Boeing (NYSE:)’s high quality turnaround effort.
Senator Tammy Duckworth, a Democrat who chairs a subcommittee on aviation, mentioned “Boeing’s security and high quality assurances can be meaningless with out acceptable transparency and accountability.” Boeing on Thursday submitted a complete high quality enchancment plan after FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker in late February gave Boeing 90 days to develop a complete plan to handle “systemic quality-control points.”
