Boeing Whistleblower Slams 787 as 'Electrical Monster' After Air India Crash, Blames Flaws

  • Boeing whistleblower Ed Pierson calls the 787 Dreamliner an 'electrical monster,' blaming manufacturing and systems failures for the Air India crash, not pilot error.
  • Pierson criticizes the preliminary investigation report for overlooking deep-rooted flaws and omitting crucial data like sensor info, full CVR, Acars, and AHM.
  • He highlights immense pressure on Boeing factory workers, leading to quality control issues across flight controls, electrical, hydraulic, and pressurization systems.
  • Pierson alleges a pattern of blaming pilots post-accident and criticizes the NTSB's 'deterioration' and the FAA's 'out of touch' leadership.
  • He argues the current accident investigation system is outdated for modern aircraft, urging a focus on systemic issues over pilot error.

Why It Matters: Whistleblower insists Air India crash points to Boeing 787's systemic flaws, not pilot error.
