Ah so just the fact that Boeing has been around for half a century doesn't absolve them from being subject to safety reviews? Nice to see some sense.

It's McDonnell-Douglas with a Boeing name -- beancounters run the show now.
You put a very disappointing feeling into words. Such a shame.
Well, their CEO also doesn’t go on podcasts and smoke pot. Not that I think that’s necessarily a better or worse sign that SpaceX is or is not safe than a CEO drinking moderately in public, but we are prudish about these things in the States.
