Whistleblower: Parts sent to Boeing had 'serious defects'
Fuselages made by Boeing's largest supplier often had serious defects, a former quality inspector at the firm claims.
A former employee of Boeing's biggest supplier has claimed that sections of 737 Max aircraft regularly left its factory with serious defects.
Spirit Aerosystems builds fuselages for the 737 Max, which are then shipped to Boeing鈥檚 own plant for final assembly.
Speaking publicly for the first time, former quality inspector Santiago Peredes told the 成人快手 that some managers actively tried to discourage him from flagging up flaws in half-finished planes.
Also, Rahul Tandon, finds out why there are a lot of concerns about whether the plan to use Russian assets for weapons is legal and why not everyone was keen to see the Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Hungary.
