- Boeing Co’s legal troubles grew on Tuesday as a new lawsuit accused the company of defrauding shareholders by concealing safety deficiencies in its 737 MAX planes before two fatal crashes led to their worldwide grounding.

Chief Executive Dennis Muilenburg and Chief Financial Officer Gregory Smith were also named as defendants.According to the complaint, Boeing “effectively put profitability and growth ahead of airplane safety and honesty” by rushing the 737 MAX to market to compete with Airbus SE, while leaving out “extra” or “optional” features designed to prevent the Ethiopian Airlines and Lion Air crashes.

Seeks said he bought 300 Boeing shares in early March, and sold them at a loss within the last two weeks. The lawsuit seeks damages for Boeing stock investors from Jan. 8 to March 21.

Does anyone really believe that a high tech company of Boeing’s historic standard would turn a blind eye to safety? LitigationUSA 🙄 Safety is their business.

Union Carbide carried out chemical experiments, termed leakages, in Bhopal. The tests caused more than 2000 deaths. Stunted, deformed life for generations.

Who wants to fly these days anyhow?!? These religions are setting the word on fire because their “logic” is very defective...

Wow, I’m shocked. 🙄🙄

I’m surprised there has been no class action yet 😅 Is there enough evidence suggesting the MCAS system is at fault, pilots were following instructions, albeit in vain, as instructed to respond to the sensor reading discrepancies?
