Airplane maker Boeing faces accusations today from three whistle-blowers, including parts buyer Jeannine Prewitt, that it knowingly allowed faulty airplane parts to make their way into hundreds of Boeing 737 jet airliners.Prewitt and two others are taking Boeing to the U.S. District Court in Wichita, Kansas. Boeing insists that the lawsuit is frivolous and that there is no cause for safety concerns. Boeing spokeswoman Cindy Wall said, "Our planes are safe."
The parts in question number in the thousands and were manufactured between 1994 and 2002. The Washington Post has more on this developing story.
