My reading of it was that while Barnett was there working on the airliner, a new leadership team who had overseen the military projects arrived. This NEW team put the pressure on the commercial project team to lower the standards of their work. It was the commercial project team that had the higher standards and were told to cut corners by the new military project team that was now in charge.

The stories coming out of Boeing are truly frightening for a "respectable" company. But then again when you see some of the things they have got up to historically, have they ever been "respectable"
