The AST CASTcast: Episode 20: Airplane Safety and Scaled Agile
summary
History of the NNSA Program Management Information System Generation 2 (launched 2007) becomes a concrete case of scaling Agile from a six‑person team into a multi‑program tool, showing how testers act as user advocates, how distributed teams set up collaboration rituals, and what tradeoffs change over ten years. A separate story describes validating a Boeing 777 training simulator built like a glorified Nintendo: a system with 10–20 million lines of code and 1–2 million parts used to prove pilot training fidelity and legal safety for real flights.
