Boeing is about to fly NASA astronauts to the International Space Station for the first time.
Still, the FAA, NASA, and other aerospace experts have questioned Boeing's overall safety culture.

This Crew Flight Test mission is over a decade in the making.
He added that those calculations are for a full 210-day mission, while Whilmore's and Williams's test flight lasts just one week.
