Yeah, Boeing is ****ed. If they're lucky they'll get to refly their OFT and perform an IFA this year. The only reason they got to skip doing an IFA was because of they're "certified processes" and simulations. Add the last OFT failure and the parachute anomoly during launch pad abort (also a failure to adhere to processes) and I'm betting the upcoming NASA culture/process audit at Boeing recommends no human flight for a while.
