As someone who works in aircraft maintenance, I am actually shocked by this. Forget the video footage, that’s just a cheap-assed commercial camera somewhere in the rafters. But the paperwork?

As a repair station, we have to document every single step of every single task. If a mechanic does it, he signs that he has done it and an inspector checks and countersigns that he has done it correctly. For a single aircraft input, this is upwards of 50,000 signed task steps. We have to hand all that data to the customer when it is complete, and also keep it for a minimum of 7 years for most stuff, some things in perpetuity.

If Boeing couldn’t provide the exact names and dates involved within a 5 minute search, then someone has already found it and destroyed it.
