 Boeing faces Congressional probe following whistleblower charges: Report
==========

Boeing is facing a Congressional probe after a whistleblower, identified as Boeing engineer Sam Salehpour, raised concerns about safety and quality standards in the production of Boeing's 787 and 777 jets. Salehpour alleges that the company ignored safety concerns and employed shortcuts in the assembly process that could compromise the structural integrity of the aircraft. The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has launched an investigation into the allegations. Boeing responded by expressing confidence in the safety of the 787 Dreamliner and dismissing Salehpour's claims as inaccurate. A Senate subcommittee has called Boeing CEO David Calhoun to testify regarding the safety of the company's aircraft in response to the whistleblower allegations. Boeing has offered to cooperate with the inquiry and address the concerns raised by Salehpour.
