If I were him, I would keep away from parking garages
And 787 hangers
That’s a lot.
If you were a Boeing whistleblower, I salute you for your service. 🫡
Thanks for the free English lesson, I’m still learning
After watching the documentary about Boeing’s South Carolina production site, no thanks. I do not want to fall from the sky like a bucket of juice. Airbus is more appealing to me.
Before all of the stuff I used to not pay any attention what planes were part of my route. Now it’s definitely a factor I consider.
I think airbus is going to own the market after this
Do we have any sort of reassurance that airbus hasn’t also suffered an erosion of safety culture in favor of cost cutting and faster production?
Nope! But the other option is proven to be so, what choice do you really have if you want to fly?
Not American.
Being 25% government owned?
No they cant manufacture fast enough and dont have the capacity, top it off covid lay waste to the industry
Airbus will share the market with Comac. Boeing will slowly sink into irrelevance.
Makes you wonder how many planes are in the sky with a door that has almost fallen off, but not quite yet.
If it’s Boeing I’m not going.
Honest question: Do Boeings have stricter inspection in the EU, or is it the same everywhere in the world?
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has the authority to act independently of FAA, but they used to mostly follow FAA since they have direct access and oversight of Boeing, them being a US company. But that started to change in 2019 with 373 MAX groundings. It exposed how FAA were incompetent and believed Boeing lies about MCAS. EASA didn’t follow FAA directive to unground them and required some additional procedural changes, combined with relevant training modifications, before ungrounding.
Thank you very much for the concise answer.
