The batch of astronauts on the first trip to the ISS of the Boeing capsule barely made it and they were supposed to stay for 4 days to fix the recycling system. Now it's been 26 days and they are still working on the capsule. I would never stepped into that thing to begin with.

I would never stepped into that thing to begin with. Boeing was aware of at least one persistent helium leak before launch; that number has supposedly increased to five leaks, to go along with the five faulty thrusters.

Yeah, they have been having problems operating in our atmosphere, I sure would not want to travel on one of their birds outside of it.

Sure. Let's pretend that's what did it.

Anything related to such an operation should be done on strictly merit and ability.
I would fail that test, but I would understand.

I worked for Boeing for 10 years. The problem at Boeing is they put financial guys instead of engineering guys in the top management positions. The culture became cut costs instead of do good work. It's no more complicated than that.

My friend and his wife both worked for Boeing in the 80s and early 90s. My friend worked on converting the drafting file formats between incompatible systems and she worked in accounting. There was a lot of serious quality control back then.

Boeing is a classic case of something I've mentioned from time to time: a company ceasing to be about the product it makes and becoming just about a quarterly financial report.
As soon as the finance guys get the top positions at a company, you can kiss quality and innovation goodbye. The company has been financialized. Finance is all it's about, now, not product.

Just found out there are multiple issues with the Boeing capsule other than the helium leaks. There's a big question about whether the soft links that attach the parachute will hold the weight. The navigation thrusters over heat and stick. And more. I would have never got on it to begin with and I sure would be begging for a spot on the SpaceX capsule to come down. I can't believe NASA let it launch.
