They should at least revoke financial liability protection for the members of the board.

Where are the competent people taking the job now?

Airbus? The death penalty would apply to them too, presumably.

Prison and even the death penalty should absolutely be considered for the bean-counting Boeing execs that deliberately drove safety into the ground for profit. The blood of innocents is on their hands, and yet they get to cheerfully cash in their stock options.

Airbus execs seem fine[1], so they'd have nothing to fear here.

Lol nothing to fear except the death penalty if employees you never heard of 5 reporting lines below you screw up badly enough?

Where do people come up with this stuff. If you want a mass exodus from airline management and sudden collapse of the entire industry that would be a fast way to do it.

> if employees you never heard of 5 reporting lines below you screw up badly enough?

Sounds like a good way to encourage execs to prioritize safety systemically.

In either case, of course negligent decisions on part of the C-suite would be considered.

Compensations would increase accordingly. The industry would be fine.

There is no level of compensation you can give someone to compensate for the risk of sudden execution because they tried, but didn't succeed.
