The CEO is not supposed to micro-manage his individual company staff. That is the responsibility of the operations and division management team. Additionally, he must rely on his team of experts, to provide him with the accurate updates. He is not an aerospace engineer by profession mind you. Looking at the Strat himself, how would he know what was really "done" without seeing the thing in the air himself like the rest of us?
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
