Yep, whenever someone would raise a safety concern that would upset the Mike Teal 737Max certification countdown clock that was always on display in his meetings, the $800K per person loss always made it go away along with the person who raised it. Reckon it all worked out well for Mike as he got his retirement severance package.
There are more lawyers on Boeing payroll dealing with endless lawsuits these days then there are competent and experienced engineers.
Boeing put a 800K/person for accident loss of life and deferred fixing MCAS on strictly financial. What the MBAs didn't count on was all the publicity the lengthy global regulatory grounding of 737Max.
Maybe enough law suits will give us the deserved door closing permanently at Boeing.
Boeing has been sued numerous times for age discrimination among other things. Usually it gets thrown out, even though everyone knows Bieing is guilty as he-l.

The new lawsuit filed Thursday last week by Ribbeck Law Chartered last week
on behalf of Liu Chandra, a businessman who was a passenger on board the
Lion Air’s Boeing 737 Max 8 that crashed in Indonesia is accusing the
firm's staff of negligence.
The plaintiff is specifically pointing an accusing finger at Dennis Muilenburg,
Boeing‘s former CEO, the current chief executive David Calhoun and
Mark Forkner, the company's former chief technical pilot.
Suit documents show that prior to the crashes,
Boeing called Indonesian pilots ‘Id--ts’ for wanting more training.
"This Is An Act of Negligence.
Training of those pilots could have averted the tragedy,''
the court papers read in part.
The firm's internal documents attached in the suit show employees discussing
the requests for more training on the airplane’s systems which was scoffed
at by the then Boeing technical pilot Mark Forkner.
“Lion Air might need a sim to fly the MAX,
and maybe because of their own stսpidity. I’m scrambling trying to figure out
how to unscrew this now! Id--ts,'' the document quotes Forkner.
The complaint also alleges that Dennis Muilenburg, Boeing’s former CEO,
Concealed the Boeing Max 8’s problems and instead blamed
the airline’s pilots and maintenance practices.
In addition, Ribbeck Law’s complaint blames David Calhoun,
Boeing’s newest CEO, for failing to prioritize safety issues,
even after the crash in Indonesia, while serving as leader of
Boeing’s board of scгew-ball miss-directors.
It is alleged that Calhoun knew immediately after the first Max 8 crash
in Indonesia that there was a mechanical problem with the entire fleet of
Boeing 737 Max 8 planes.
"Calhoun and the Board of Directors under his leadership
knew that the planes had to be grounded,
and they chose to keep flying them.“Our clients deserve their day in court,''
Ribbeck Law Chartered Partner Manuel von Ribbeck said in a statement.
