US aeronautics giant Boeing, facing increased scrutiny after a series of safety incidents and manufacturing issues, is directing employees to take “immediate actions” to improve operations, according to a message the company sent to its workforce Tuesday.
The guidance, from Boeing’s head of commercial aviation Stan Deal, comes after an audit by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) — undertaken after a close call on an Alaska Airlines flight in January — found instances of non-compliance at the manufacturer.
