Boeing received a sharp rebuke from the National Transportation Safety Board for violating rules during an investigation into the Alaska Airlines Flight 1282 accident. The company held a media event revealing unauthorized investigative information, leading to the NTSB taking action by restricting Boeing's access to the investigation and coordinating with the Department of Justice. This is the second time Boeing has violated party rules in the investigation, prompting NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy to criticize the company's conduct. The NTSB is determined to ensure the investigation integrity and protect it from interference. Boeing's actions have raised concerns about its compliance with investigation protocol and cooperation with authorities. The NTSB remains focused on uncovering the truth behind the accident and ensuring accountability in the aerospace industry.
