Boeing CEO David Calhoun said the messages released earlier this month, in which employees boasted about bullying regulators, were 'unacceptable.'
executive, said the messages should have been disclosed within the company "a long time ago."
"We found out way too late," he added. "There was only one moment in time that if we had found out, we all would have done something. That is the day it was written."In one of the messages, from April 2017, one Boeing employee told another, "This airplane is designed by clowns who in turn are supervised by monkeys."
Another showed a Boeing employee hopeful they could "gang up" on regulators and steer them "in the direction we want." Boeing, earlier this month, said the messages "do not reflect the company we are and need to be, and they are completely unacceptable."
