The flying public doesn’t know jack shite. They read misinformation on places like this and form “expert” opinion.

Boeing and Airbus both suck. Building airplanes should be a public sector activity.
Ha. This will surely improve quality.

By and large they shop price, no one gives a shite what they’re riding on unless it’s within hours or days of a crash. Which, btw has all but been eliminated in the US. It will happen again, but we’ve got a pretty impressive streak going on.

Was actually going to respond with “many thanks!”

That was my first thought as well. Airbus starts getting their arse handed to them and a European airline starts publicly bitching.

Boeing will get it worked out. Not an excuse but they’re a little hamstrung because they have to tailor their business model almost as almost reactionary to the gross buffoonery of the idiots that run the airlines. Not to mention that their chief competitor has significant subsidized assistance.

Ain't that the truth.

They’re not. I’ll trust a Boeing product before anything.

just more clickbait. Saw this crap on the homepage of a site that's notorious for clickbait.

I was thinking about this on my flight a few weeks ago to Los Angeles. It quite remarkable what aerospace engineers have made possible in terms of air travel. The last fatal crash in the U.S. was a decade ago and that was due to pilot fatigue. It's mind blowing that we defy all laws of physics with one of the most complex pieces of mechanical equipment known to man and we can go over a decade without a single catastrophic crash. The engineers, pilots and aircraft mechanics don't get enough recognition for what they do.
