Remember Al Jazeera's 2010 report on critical defective and substandard structural parts from subcontractor Ducommun? The full scope of potential risk is ALL aircraft Boeing has designed, built, reengineered or maintained in the past 30 years. It's unknown what's hidden, poorly-designed, fragile or likely to fail because of lax self-certification up-and-down the full breadth and depth of equipment and subsystems. There's no way to prove a particular new/recently maintained Boeing plane is safe because the whole regulatory system is broken due to regulatory capture stemming from cozy, military-industrial complex corruption.

I do hope Ralph Nader sues the pants off Boeing for killing his goddaughter due to their cheapness and shoddy products.
