could have been catastrophic if it happened a few seconds later

What a coincidence...not too long ago they came out with a new policy that fatties don't have to pay for an extra seat...now this shite.

This one isn't Boeing's fault.

Boeing used to be a reputable company when it was ran by engineers… now it’s run by Wall Street investors who prioritize profit over safety. The airline industry needs to eliminate DEI altogether or we’re bound to have another major airline catastrophe.

The labor pool is shite right now. Youll see the results play out.

Man, I am 100% committed to NOT flying anymore unless for some kind of emergency i can't foresee. Had a trip planned to Orlando with airfare, and nowwwwwwwww i'm gonna be driving after all these absurd changes.

if i can select my pilot or see them before I buy a ticket? fine. but there's a LOT more than just pilots that make this shite so dangerous. the minimal bar is seeing my pilot prior to ticket purchase.

The last one of these planes came off the assembly line 20 years ago champ.

You can’t plug and chug the root cause for the Max issues onto everything.

Are they using the DEI process to hire mechanics?
