If a car has automatic steering that fights the driver for control and crashes into bridge abutments at full speed, why not? Those 346 deaths were entirely preventable by responsible design decisions. There was no study performed by Boeing that uncovered the inherent fatal behavior. How do I know? I was on the program progress review board where these decisions were made, and the MCAS was waved away as a trivial software edit. So, I put you with the complacent ones.
The design requirement on airliners is that the statistical probability of a fatal event on any given flight should be no greater than on in ten million. The 737 MAX was a flunk.
I am definitely not complacent. I will not get on an airplane right now, or since the pandemic started, or until the storm is over. Vaxxed pilots dropping dead or otherwise having their heads stuck up their own or someone else's ass is enough for me.
Boeing is deep state, in case you hadn't pieced that together. At the end of the day, you have a choice to get on a plane or drive on the freeway or take a shot. If someone is going to try to force me to do any of those things against my will, well, they're going to find out.
The shuttle program was retired because it could be used against the deep state by white hats should it have been operational during Trump's term. You are just parroting the cover story.
So your arguments and accusations don't make any sense. And based on how you've been ratioed in this conversation, I think most here agree w me.
That would make you a majority of the ignorant. I won't debate whether the post-merger Board of Boeing was "Deep State." Some of them individually were (ex-military or government office holders), but it is enough that they were partners. I would certainly hesitate to fly on any 737 MAX aircraft. Who knows what other flaw was allowed to slide on past any review process? 787s built in the Pacific Northwest are probably safe enough (mostly 787-9 models). All earlier models have an exemplary track record.
As for the Shuttle, you are out of your mind. NASA had permitted a long-standing flight anomaly to be "normalized," and it wound up killing the Columbia. The system flaw was so serious, there was no possibility of "fixing" it in either a timely or economical way. So, to prevent further loss of life, the system was retired. It would have had little operational significance under Trump. Obama was also "good" with canceling any government operational abilities, just as he canceled F-22 production. I thought so at the time.
This is funny. I am someone who knows Boeing from the inside and was familiar with all these systems. And somehow, you guys who don't know anything, are able to say things without any substantiation. Don't lecture me about making sense. Make good on your allegations.
