'What other "misses" are being baked into this now due to management pressures that will turn up later. I have no trust in Boeing in this regard after their botched MAX development.'
Hear, hear!

On the other hand, Boeing's predictive model has been validated by that failure at 99% of goal. That's the most important point for certification, so that a small reinforcement should be enough.

Have just read this after posting on the Max grounding today about another shocking revelation concerning external administrative control. This is totally consistent with a need for acute, active scrutiny of the whole company before something even more disastrous happens. Look at the recent Starliner fiasco. Yes, mistakes can happen but so recurrently across company divisions? That points only one way to the fault - upwards.
It must be hellish for the guys/gals there who could get it right and should have carte blanche to do so but are being suppressed for the bottom line. Quit I would say rather than self-harm.

A large part of the problem seems to be a difficulty, in that large organisation, to coordinate the operation of different units. That is management's main role, but at Boeing the results seem to be sub-par.
This is difficult to correct. Boeing may need new approaches : perhaps hiring some engineers from other companies and appointing them to management positions at Boeing would help.
As regards supplier selection, cost-cutting efforts and tight schedules, I don't think there is any way to change that in general, but there could be some improvements on a case by case basis

That would be a tad on the late side. Airlines had hoped for this year, next year looked likely but 2022 is a surprise.
