The shakeup comes weeks after the head of the Federal Aviation Administration said that Boeing is not paying enough attention to safety. ARLINGTON, Va. — Boeing said Wednesday that the head of its 737 program is leaving the company in an executive shake-up weeks after a door panel blew out on a flight over Oregon, renewing questions about safety at the company. Katie Ringgold will succeed him as vice president and general manager of the 737 program, and the company's Renton, Washington site. “Our customers demand, and deserve, nothing less.”In January, an emergency door panel blew off a Boeing 737 Max 9 over Oregon. Bolts that helped secure a panel to the frame of the 737 Max 9 were missing before the panel blew off the Alaska Airlines plane last month, according to accident investigators.
