Title: Boeing Chief Must Have Engineering Background, Emirates Boss Says

Link: https://tech.slashdot.org/story/24/03/27/0030...

The chief of Emirates, one of Boeing's largest clients, has said the crisis-
stricken US aircraft maker should ensure its new chief executive has
engineering experience to restore safety standards (non-paywalled link). From
a report: A day after Boeing chief executive Dave Calhoun announced he would
step down, Sir Tim Clark also said he backed efforts by the US group's
largest labour union to win a seat on the board. "To fix Boeing's issues the
company needs a strong engineering lead as its head coupled to a governance
model which prioritises safety and quality," Clark told the Financial Times
on Tuesday. "Some serious lateral thinking" was needed, the airline boss
added. Boeing on Monday unveiled a wide-ranging reshuffle of its leadership
in a bid to get to grips with an escalating reputational crisis after a 737
Max door panel blew off mid-flight in January. Calhoun, 66, is to leave at
the end of the year, while board chair Larry Kellner said he would depart in
May. Stan Deal, head of the commercial planes division since 2019, was
immediately replaced by chief operating officer Stephanie Pope.
