Looks like a trim tab. Not really that big a deal.


Regardless of how big of a deal it is Boeing doesn't need any more bad press. Even if this comes out to be a likely maintenance issue the fact that it happened on a Boeing has to have Boeing officials wanting to sodomize and set puppies on fire.....

Maybe to the general public that will forget it by tomorrow but I can assure you internally it is a big deal with a lot of people in and outside the organization involved.

Ate at a sushi place the other night and I tried the "Atlanta roll". The older Japanese guy making the rolls said, "At-ranta?" It was so clichéd and stereotypical I almost laughed.

Can you tell me when where and who lost a wheel on take off last year? Ask 10 people and if you are lucky maybe 8 boarding that airline today could answer any part of the question.

I can tell you that I have people calling me all the time asking if the plane they are flying is safe because it's a Boeing.
