"Boeing's Quality Crisis: CEO Visits Supplier Amid Scrutiny"

Boeing is implementing new quality inspections and allowing airline customers to send their own inspectors to its factories in an effort to restore confidence in its grounded 737 Max 9 planes, following a door plug failure incident. However, the move comes amid sharp criticism from the FAA, which has grounded 171 of the planes and is considering adding an independent third-party inspector. The company's troubled history, including the flawed automated control system linked to previous crashes, has raised concerns about its commitment to safety and quality.
