Another day, another Boeing whistleblower. Richard Cuevas , described by his lawyers as an experienced mechanic and a 40-year veteran of the airline industry, used to work for Strom , a contractor with Spirit, which is Boeing ’s primary parts supplier. Cuevas says that during his time with the company, he saw “critical drilling and sealant issues” on some of the 787 Dreamliner aircraft that he worked on.
” “Our client witnessed critical issues with the forward pressure bulkhead assembly on multiple planes that deviated from Boeing’s specifications,” said Cuevas’ attorneys. “He recognized the substandard work and expressed concern about his safety concerns, but Spirit and Boeing failed to stop the faulty manufacturing processes.
