Not to mention oval holes drilled in the rear bulkhead...
Likewise not keen on going on a MAX, or anything.
Every thing like this suggests QC failings are being found by chance, not as a result of a thorough QC process review. Given how far down the QC cliff the company has fallen, and incidents like this demonstrating that they've not yet climbed back up, one wonders what other horrors are lurking. It's hard to believe that these QC failings affect only one model; and indeed 787 has had its share of QC problems of late too.
So, how long does one give the company before declaring them not competent to make any airframe? And if one did make such a declaration, how retrospective would that have to be?
