A Senate subcommittee has called on Boeing CEO David Calhoun to testify regarding safety-related charges brought forth by a whistleblower. The inquiry, prompted by a quality engineer at Boeing, Sam Salehpour, is set to address safety concerns related to the manufacture and assembly of the 787 Dreamliner. The subcommittee has expressed worries about potential safety risks resulting from these issues.
Boeing has been cooperative with the subcommittee's inquiry, offering to provide documents, testimony, and technical briefings. However, it remains unclear whether Calhoun will attend the hearing scheduled for April 17.
