How did it get approved by the FAA? The same way the 737 Max 8 got all bunged up. The FAA allowed Swift to likely copy the training syllabus from some other freight dog carrier and then Swift never actually implemented it. Looked good on paper.
The FAA allowed Boeing incredible self oversight also because of under funding and lack of manpower.
The FAA actually knows what goes on at Swift and others like it, but rarely take the time to really do anything about it until there is an accident or incident.
