Boeing announces the departure of the program manager of its 737 MAX program. Ed Clark was fired after 18 years of dedicated service to Boeing.
Katie Ringgold, currently vice president in charge of 737 delivery operations, will succeed Clark. The company is still suffering from the incident that occurred in January when a door came off the cabin of a 737 MAX 9 during an Alaska Airlines flight. The 737 MAX had been grounded for almost two years after the crashes of two aircraft, the first of Indonesian company Lion Air, the second of Ethiopian Airlines.
