A second Boeing whistleblower, Joshua Dean, has died suddenly after raising concerns about manufacturing defects in Boeing’s 737 MAX. Dean, 45, was a former quality auditor at Spirit AeroSystems, a Boeing supplier. His death is part of a chain of strange mishaps that have plagued Boeing. Following a door plug panel coming off an Alaska Airlines plane, the FAA grounded 171 Boeing MAX 9 aircrafts, leading to a federal investigation and the resignation of the Boeing CEO. Dean’s death is the second of whistleblowers revealing safety issues in the aviation industry.
