@1gbo+1gQSpPMA,

Exactly. You won't find a single person in the Boeing executive or management ranks that holds a Professional Engineering License. You will find many with MBAs.

Boeing’s Farcical Fighter
Read the specs and compare to its pear and you will see this
Fraudulent Fighter is a farce too.

Just like the
CST-100 Scгapitliner. - This is another tragedy primed and ready to happen.
Kc-46 Tanker Boondoggle
737 Max Fraud
787 Nightmareliner

The military and the government do not want to go with a single source supplier. They want contracts to be awarded on a competition. Obviously SpaceX will win the competition but Boeing was funded purely to make it a competition. That’s how Boeing Defense gets the majority of their work. Competing in competitions that they ultimately will lose.

For the uninitiated it’s called math, we use it to count, add, subtract and multiply

Boeing’s CST-100 Cгapliner costs $90 million per seat
The SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule costs $55 million per seat
That’s a 61% higher cost per seat.

In mathematics, a Percentage or percent is a number or ratio expressed as a
fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%".

So 10 times more expensive would be a 1000% increase in cost.
It should be understood that this level of math is far beyond the capacity
Of well over 98% of all Boeing employees
Math provides no safe spaces, so it’s not taught to Millennials,

The level of corruption in this country had gotten unfathomable. Write Congress and tell them it is unacceptable to pay Boeing ten times what SpaceX charges for a seat ride to ISS. People need to be held accountable for this endless corrupt Boeing welfare scam that wastes much our tax payer treasure.

Yup, Starliner project was similar to 737Max project in many ways. Boeing spent a fortune and took forever to accomplish minor enhancements of long outdated and obsolete products. Boeing looks like an old lame horse being led to the glue factory with a loud band playing their praise. Pathetic.

Boeing would most likely be doing a lot better if Moe, Larry and Curly were running things

Boeing has spent more more energy and money paying stock hawks than on R&D and basic engineering enhancement. These stock hawks write endless Boeing good news stuff and scour these sort of forums. Just ignore votes, lies and obvious good news spin. Read the Boeing quarterly reports and compare Boeing airplane backlog to Airbus and COMAC.

Unfortunately it's quite easy to exploit the voting system here with a simple script. The majority of the big numbers there came from a single person

Expensive, non-reusable, obsolete launch system that relies on Russian RD180 engines. Somehow I don't think SpaceX is very concerned...except perhaps for the endless Boeing/Government corruption they have had to contend with since they were founded.

Watching that Starliner launch was like watching an old 1960s Apollo launch. Like a 100 people manually looking at data, making decisions and calling go or no go. Such an obsolete approach compared to the fully autonomous, computer monitored, streamlined and efficient SpaceX approach. Boeing will fry astronauts before this saga is done.
