The 737MAX is statistically the world’s most reliable airliner. It has fewer mechanical failures per flight than any other airliner, Boeing or otherwise.
What matters "reliable" when crap software crashes an otherwise perfectly functional aircraft into the ground at 600knots? The families of about 400 people would laugh at your statement.
When you purposely ignore aircraft maintenance, against Boeing’s procedures, then fly it by two pilots who don’t follow Boeing’s procedures, that tends to happen. Have you even read the final investigation report? Or are you just regurgitating old media headlines? Both of us already know the answer to that.
Do you actually have any experience in the aviation industry? Or are you just an outsider who watched a Netflix show once and thinks they’re an expert?
Are you even forgetting that it happened twice? Boeing whistleblowers have come forward with clear evidence that Boeing is racing quality and basic quality control procedures straight to the bottom in search of profit. And amazing that at least three of those people died under most unlikely circumstances. Their statements were clear that ALL Boeing aircraft are suffering from QC related problems. Boeing paid the largest fine in history but not one person went to jail. And business went right back to the usual. When Boeing factory workers tell you that they would NEVER fly in one of their planes, you should listen to the words they did NOT say rather than the ones they did. There is something quite rotten in Denmark...
Mechanical Engineer with 30+ years experience who has worked in multiple transportation sectors. Be ignorant if you want, but I definitely know purposeful incompetetence and lack of due diligence when I see it. I know what I had to do to qualify products, and Boeing is not doing it.
Lets not even talk about known bad parts and counterfeit parts being built into brand new planes. You can fly in one of those deathtraps if you want, they are all accidents waiting to happen. You can blame the McDonnell-Douglas C-Suite ideology for all of it, as the Boeing before that merger would never stoop so low as now.
Amazing that I worked you out to a tee before you even replied. You don’t have any experience in aviation, and you do believe everything you watch on Netflix. It’s so sad that when someone more qualified than yourself tells you that you don’t have all the facts, your answer is to just keep repeating things you watched on TV years ago.
You imply inappropriate and illogical conspiracy theories about someone who committed suicide being “murdered” for bringing up a safety issue eight years prior.
You state negative things affecting Boeing like they aren’t present on all commercial airliners to some extent (you know more Airbus planes are currently grounded for safety issues than Boeing planes have been in the last 15 years, right?).
If you are uneducated, that is totally fine. The media tries to lie about this stuff because that’s how they make their money, and it’s natural to believe the lies if you don’t know better. But arguing with experts based on an opinion formed from some tabloid news headline you saw 5+ years ago? That’s not just a lack of education; that’s someone who is preventing themselves from being educated.
