Pretty damning article if true. . . If I read this correctly .someone fixed cable bundles with plastic fasteners instead or the prescribed rivets that were there to ensure grounding , and id this on his own without supervision. Is this usual ?
and then this :
in a previously unreported problem, Boeing recently found a potential defect in a batch of 20 to 40 motors that move the horizontal stabilizer on all 737s, including the MAX and earlier models.
I realize that today Boeing is checking everything twice and is being 100% transparent, and that everything MAX related makes the news today , but it really cannot continue for too long before the flying public vote with their feet...
