Boeing CEO. Reality disconnect.....CHECK

Just read this on Flight Global:
https://www.flightglobal.com/air-tra...136438.article

Among the sea of nothingness and abbreviations (NMA, NSA, FSA), the phrase that caught my attention:
"I want to be sure I understand everything about the widebody, narrowbody world," says David Calhoun, the company's CEO.
The guy's been sitting on the Boeing's board of directors for ELEVEN YEARS, and he still "wants to be sure he understands" the only two segments his company works in!!! I'm sorry but I don't think Boeing has any time for the chief's soul searching. What it needs is someone at the helm who actually knows what he's doing. And then it needs to brace for what looks increasingly like a fight for survival.

Too harsh?
