Boeing executives called DGCA ‘fools’, ‘stupid’ during 737 Max plane’s approval process in 2017: Documents
During the approval process for 737Max planes in India in 2017, executives used terms such as “fools” and “stupid” for the Indian aviation regulator DGCA, according to internal documents released by Boeing.
In early 2019, regulators across the world banned flying 737Max planes after two fatal accidents involving the aircraft that killed 346 people. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) also ordered grounding of these planes in March last year.
The latest batch of internal Boeing documents were provided to the US aviation regulator FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) and US Congress last month and released on Thursday.
