Burgess COMMENTARY
It seems that there is a dangerous disconnect between the many levels of corporate management or governance. It is apparent that profit is the dominant goal of the capitalist enterprise and the primacy of profit means that everything else, no matter how important, gets pushed away, no matter what the consequences. Frankly, many of the procedures that have been intended to ensure that safety is more important than profit in the airline industry seem to have been systematically avoided by the Boeing company and its regulators. This is not an easy problem to solve, but it is not at all clear than anyone is trying!

What did Boeing know about the potential for disaster with its 737 Max airplane — and when did the company know it? FRONTLINE and The New York Times investigate the crashes that killed 346 people.

In October 2018, a Boeing 737 Max passenger jet crashed shortly after takeoff off the coast of Indonesia. Five months later, following an eerily similar flight pattern, another 737 Max 8 went down in Ethiopia. Everyone on board the flights died.

'Boeing's Fatal Flaw,' a FRONTLINE documentary in collaboration with The New York Times, tells the inside story of what led up to the crashes — revealing how intense market pressure and failed oversight contributed to tragic deaths and a catastrophic crisis for one of the world’s most iconic industrial names.
