New Boeing 737 MAX documents show 'very disturbing' employee concerns

Boeing shares, which have dropped more than 20% over the past nine months, closed down 1.3% to $333 on Tuesday.

WASHINGTON: Boeing Co documents under review by a U.S. congressional panel appear to point to a "very disturbing" picture of commentary from the planemaker's employees over the grounded 737 MAX aircraft, a congressional aide said on Tuesday.

The documents were submitted to the House of Representatives transportation infrastructure committee and the Federal Aviation Administration on Monday, the same day Boeing announced the firing of chief executive Dennis Muilenburg amid a crisis over the handling of the aftermath of two fatal crashes.
