Five months later, following an eerily similar flight pattern, another 737 Max 8 went down in Ethiopia. Everyone on board the flights died. “Boeing’s Fatal Flaw,“ a FRONTLINE documentary in collaboration with The New York Times, tells the inside story of what led up to the crashes — revealing how intense market pressure and failed oversight contributed to tragic deaths and a catastrophic crisis for one of the world’s most iconic industrial names. “Boeing’s Fatal Flaw“ premieres Sept. 14, 2021 on FRONTLINE: #Documentary #BoeingsFatalFlaw #737Max For more reporting in connection with this investigation, visit FRONTLINE’s website: And read The New York Times’ coverage: “Boeing’s Fatal Flaw“ is a FRONTLINE production with The New York Times and Left/Right Docs.
