Boeing has appointed retired Navy admiral Kirkland Donald as a special advisor to improve the quality oversight of work done by suppliers. This decision comes in response to a midflight blowout incident and aims to enhance the company's factories and those of its suppliers. The appointment follows increased quality inspections on Boeing 737 Max 9 planes, prompted by an accident involving an Alaska Airlines jet. Federal regulators have grounded most Max 9 jets, highlighting significant shortcomings in quality assurance and controls. Boeing continues to face manufacturing problems and delivery delays.
