Arthur Booker+FollowBoeing’s Starliner: Space Uber or Lemon?Here’s your coffee break scoop: Boeing’s Starliner was supposed to be NASA’s backup ride to the space station, but after years of delays and $2B in extra costs, its next trip will only haul cargo—no astronauts allowed. Think of it as a test drive before you trust it with your family. If this mission flops, Boeing’s space dreams could stall, leaving SpaceX as the only game in town. If you like options, root for a smooth flight! #Business #Industry #Boeing00Share
Vincent Perry+FollowBoeing’s warning signs missed in Louisville crashBoeing had known for years about a part on the MD-11 that could fail and cause an engine to break away, but didn’t consider it a major safety risk. That’s what the NTSB just revealed about the UPS cargo plane crash in Louisville that killed Albuquerque pilot Lee Truitt and 14 others. Even though the MD-11 hasn’t flown passengers in years, it’s still been used for cargo by UPS and FedEx—until now. All MD-11s are grounded after this tragedy. It’s a tough reminder: how much trust do we put in companies to act on early warning signs? #Business #Industry #Boeing00Share

Now, that same pilot is suing Boeing for $10 million, saying the company tried to pin the blame on him instead of owning up to their own mistakes. If you ever wondered how big companies handle crisis PR, here’s a real-life lesson: sometimes, it’s easier to blame the little guy than fix the real problem. Always read the fine print, folks! #Business #Industry #Boeing00Share

Always double-check who’s really at fault when things go sideways! #Business #Industry #Boeing00Share
Vincent Perry+FollowBoeing’s $931M Super Hornet Tune-Up: Why It MattersHere’s your coffee break scoop: Boeing just scored a $931 million deal to give the Navy’s Super Hornet jets a major refresh, keeping them flying into the 2030s. Why? The Navy’s next-gen planes aren’t ready yet, so they’re doubling down on what works. For Boeing, it’s like shifting from building new cars to running a top-tier auto shop—keeping jobs and skills alive while new tech is still in the garage. Smart move for both sides! #Business #Industry #Boeing10Share
