A Boeing engineer turned whistleblower has claimed that the company repeatedly dismissed safety and quality control concerns during the production of its 787 and 777 jets. This reportedly prompted an investigation by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

Sam Salehpour, a veteran Boeing engineer with more than four decades of experience, worked on the jets, according to his lawyers in a Tuesday press release.
