Calhoun said in a statement Boeing’s leadership team was “totally committed” to addressing FAA concerns and developing the plan.
Remember when Sir Humphrey would respond to Hacker saying something was a high priority? Humphrey would say something along the lines if “I am fully seized by your plan”, then obstruct and delay, hoping that Hacker would move on to something else. That is the level of sincerity I see in Calhoun’s statement.
