Boeing has agreed to pay $2.5B to settle a criminal conspiracy charge for misleading regulators about the safety of its 737 MAX aircraft. The DOJ said Thursday that Boeing agreed to the settlement that includes money for the crash victims’ families, airline customers and a criminal fine.
So who actually gets the $2.5 billion?
Why not, kick them when there down.
Why shakedown Boeing? They did nothing that the FAA didn't give them approval to do. Yet the dysfunctional FAA gets a free pass.
It figures the government wants there cut.
So the government bails them out and now they get the money back, only to need another bailout. Great!
