The civil aviation standards need reassign and airline componies need to be audited more regularly for non compliance At the moment Boeing stock is up 2.06% - they’re taking a beating to their reputation right new, but in the U.S. they are quite literally too big to fail. They’re basically a part of the DoD but listed on the stock exchange. The best thing that can happen from this is Boeing being forced to rid itself of the managers and executives that were loaded onto it when they merged with McDonnell Douglas. What’s happened to Boeing is executives ignoring and silencing engineers while Boeing gotten an easier ride from regulators based off their history of success from their past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,612 Posted March 20 Subscriber Share Posted March 20 Their ties to DoD sums it all up really. They used to be the gold standard for safety not just in the aviation industry but across manufacturing as well. Then they merged with McDonnell and it all went south from there. They can still fix this but the I am surprised the FAA hasn't grounded more of their aircrafts to make the message more clear. The worst part of it all is that they also have a history of some of the worst aviation disasters we've ever seen as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad reality that war sells. I don't think all the blame is on Boeing but they do take a lot of it due to the design shortcuts taken to save money. Airline companies are sadly magnifying the situation by failing to upkeep their planes due to economic issues. United Airlines is one company that failed to do maintenance on time, that is frightening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the recent United incidents appear to be United just not doing proper maintenance. Big takeaways are don’t get on a 737-Supermax if you can avoid it & don’t fly United Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
