Default FAA Buffoons continue their stupidity

Why does this NOT surprise me???


NEW YORK (Reuters) - Three former Boeing Co. (NYSE:BA

employees have alleged that the top U.S. plane maker installed
improperly fitting parts in hundreds of Boeing 737 commercial jets, the
Washington Post reported on Monday. They claim that Boeing allowed
thousands of parts to be installed on the planes even though the
aerospace company knew they *did not meet specifications*. Boeing also
*retaliated against people who raised questions* about the parts, the
whistle-blowers claim. The whistle-blowers initially made the claims in
2002, the newspaper said. A review by the U.S. Federal Aviation
Administration said the allegations had no merit.


:-P However, the Washington Post said it had reviewed the *FAA's probe
and found that the agency failed to visit any airplanes to inspect the
200 types of parts questioned by the whistle-blowers*.The FAA declined
to comment on the allegations, beyond referring to their previous
findings the allegations had no merit, the Post said.


Previous findings through long distance osmosis perhaps? Unbelievable.

Remember, Gay Pride and unqualified black females now run the
politically correct
but out of control FAA. It appears Air Safety is way down on the
priority list.
But they do celebrate Gay pride week with vigor.

The FAA has always inspected paperwork, rather than
airplanes. Boeing union workers often use such threats as
part of the negotiation process. If union workers "knew"
the parts were wrong, they should not have installed them in
the first place.
