Boeing and Nasa teams work around the Starliner spacecraft after it landed uncrewed in New Mexico on Friday

The latest mission should have been the final test before Nasa could certify Starliner for routine flights.If it were down to Richard Aboulafia, an aviation industry analyst at AeroDynamic Advisory, Mr Ortberg should get rid of it as soon as possible. “I would argue for selling their space business if they can,” he said.and losing $1 billion refitting Air Force One, there have been so many scandals the public is in danger of becoming immunised to them.

“The idea of taking an engineering company and having non-engineers running it with a complete ignorance of technical challenges is a recipe for trouble. Space industry analyst Laura Forczyk said that capsules were a “very well-tested type of technology”.
