Boeing's new legal czar
Mr. Luttig was appointed at age 37 to the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, after working as assistant counsel to former president Ronald Reagan and as a law clerk to Antonin Scalia before he joined the U.S. Supreme Court. He also served as a clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger.
Among those who served as clerk for Mr. Luttig were Ted Cruz, who is now a U.S. Senator from Texas, and Joel Kaplan, now Facebook Inc.’s vice president of global public policy.

Sounds like a good, conservative, laissez faire airplane safety guy.

I just wanted to add some of what I think is very good, even too pro-aviation, journalism coming from the center-right Seattle Times on the newish CEO's possibly fatal errors. https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/as-the-max-crisis-drags-on-boeings-ceo-faces-questions-about-his-own-future/
This would go to the heart of whether capitalism must also be understood as a particular set of sociological and cultural norms, not simply an economic force decoupled from identity. That little problem may have killed 500 people in the two recent Boeing crashes.
