Boeing and FAA put the US Freedom of Information Act in Danger

Two Boeing 737 Max crashes shed light on how Boeing and the FAA works. Flyers Rights had been trying to find out the full truth.

Paul Huson, the founder and head of Flyers Rights, a US consumer rights movement for the aviation industry, had been instrumental in fighting Boeing and the US Government in telling the truth, releasing secret documents, and going to court.

eTurboNews reported about this lawsuit in March since experts could not determine if the Boeing 737 MAX, whose original certification is alleged by the DOJ to be a product of a criminal conspiracy, and is safe to fly.

Flyers Rights want FAA and Boeing to be transparent, and the latest case at the US Appeals court in Washington, DC, shows this.

This case began before the last crash of the Boeing Max in 2019.

In a press conference today, Paul Hudson shared some background of where he was coming from, why he called for the press conference, and where he was going with the case.

My name is Paul Hudson. I’m the president of Flyers Rights. Paul is also designated to the FAA safety advisory committees.

Today Flyers Rights told journalists:

I was unaware of the max problems until after the first crash.

No one else was either.

Associates at the FAA certainly knew some things, and Boeing knew a lot about how defective their plane was.

The first crash in October of 2019 was far away in Indonesia.

There were no Americans on board.

I was paying attention to it. But then I got a phone call from a frequent traveler. He told me there was a real problem here.

I contacted the Boeing representative with whom I’ve been acquainted for many years.

The fact that the plane had a haywire flight control system that had taken over caused many ups and downs and then crashed, killing everyone on this brand-new aircraft.

I asked him why Boeing hadn’t grounded this plane.

This was the first week in December of 2018.

He answered: Well, it’s under investigation with the NTSB, but we can’t tell you anything. It’s all secret.

I waited a few weeks. I wait a little longer, but I shouldn’t have done that.

In March, the second plane went down. Now we had 346 lives lost.
