"FAA Sets 90-Day Deadline for Boeing to Address 737 Max Quality Control"

TL;DR Summary
The FAA has given Boeing 90 days to address its quality control issues, following concerns raised by critics about deep-seated problems with the 737 Max jets. This ultimatum comes after a series of issues, including a design flaw in the engine anti-icing system and missing bolts on a plane door. Critics argue that the problems extend beyond isolated incidents, pointing to rushed development and production processes. Boeing has pledged to slow down and focus on addressing these issues, while the FAA is taking a harder line, capping production and demanding a comprehensive plan for improvement.
