New Boeing CEO gets $7million bonus to get Max flying
Boeing's new CEO, Dave Calhoun, has a daunting to-do list when he takes the reins at the company's Chicago headquarters on Monday: improving the plane-maker's strained relationships with regulators and airline customers, winning back public trust and getting the 737 Max — grounded for almost a year after two deadly crashes — flying again.

Well, what do you expect from an investment manager? Perhaps if you required all board members to obtain at least a Private Pilot Certificate, so they they have some appreciation for what keeps a plane in the air! Nah, the bottom line is always about money, not the point where AGL = 0.
They should cancel the MAX, and retool for the New 757! I still can't understand why the hell the myopic management had the stupid idea of milking the 737 so hard.
Its called the A-320...
$7 million to do your job? He should have to pay Boeing $7 million if doesn't get the Max flying.
The previous putz walks away with $62 million after screwing the pooch, now the guy coming through the door gets a $7 million inducement to violate the poor doggie again. Talk about not learning from the past.
Oh, they learned. They likely decided the problem was they didn't spend enough money trying to cover up the Frankenstein mess the MAX turned into...
