> - Downfall: Case Against Boeing -- all in the title

This is a good one. For context, it deals with the 737 Max 8 crashes, pre covid. Boeing was incentivized to release a flawed aircraft which killed 362 people, across 2 crashes. They knew after the first crash what was going on, but decide to do nothing.

Apart from the technical description of the failure it also explains how the corporate structure and the race for profits compromised Boeing's culture of safety.
