Boeing's delivery decreased in September to the worst level over the past two years. Consecutive challenges have hit the company. The latest problem happened to its bestselling 737s, essentially part of its sale. Misdrilled holes in the airframe were found in the summer. Yet, Boeing management has expressed an optimistic forecast that they could live up to this year's goal, though deliveries would be delayed.

Deliveries of 737 MAX jets to customers fell in September to the lowest level in more than two years. Consecutive challenges have hit the company. The latest problem happened to its bestselling 737s, essentially part of its sale. Misdrilled holes in the airframe were found in the summer. Yet, Boeing management has expressed an optimistic forecast that they could live up to this year's goal, though deliveries would be delayed.

1. This is much more understandable.
Boeing has something of a chequered history, including some fatal crashes as a result of software faults. What's your feeling about them?

My family members are stakeholders. MAX caused the crashes you mentioned. Federal regulators and lawmakers closely investigated the accidents, and a senator criticized the air safety regulator, arguing that it was slow to investigate against an indication that Boeing employees tried to underestimate MCAS, a flight-control system. That was equipped with MAX and resulted in fatal crashes.

1. Use the noun, complaint, which means a statement that a situation is unsatisfactory or unacceptable.
Your family's stake in Boeing's situation must be concerning. Safety issues and regulatory concerns are crucial in aviation. What steps do you think should be taken to ensure safety and accountability in such cases?

To ensure safety, the defects found in August in the rear of 737 fuselages have delayed the deliveries. Spirit AeroSystems supplied the components. Rooting and repairing misdrilled holes have been done. The process is complicated and needs X-ray inspections of the planes. The delays have interrupted the company, travelers, and airlines, as travel shows a rebound sign.
