I’ll never fly with a Boeing plane again. What a fucking shit company, with shit attitude and values so poor even satan would despise them. It’s the perfect example of what’s wrong with capitalism.

Airbus: Wrr wrr wrr wrr wrr
Me: I feel safer already
The soothing sound of safety
I cannot, for the life of me, understand how you can kill 350 people and then just buy your way out of it.
This money isn't even for the victims families, it's a fucking bribe to get the gov to shield them from consequences.
This is wrong on so many levels - fucking executives need to go to jail over this!
If they're not going to be responsible for their fuck ups, Boeing airworthiness needs to be revoked around the world. When they come crashing down over US politicians heads, then maybe they'll learn.
This is part of why everything is so expensive.
So our abusers can use our money against us.
Let's stop being useful idiots.
Boeing planes are death traps.
Excluding ferry boats, commercial planes are the safest mode of transportation. By a lot. If Boeings are “death traps,” then cars are nuclear bombs lol
Why excluding ferry boats?
Because theyre fucking floating tanks that go a few miles and when they have mechanical issues you just send a tug out a mile to drag them back.
Greetings, fellow customer of BCFerries.org !
Sounds like Big Ferry Boat talking
Don't have the tail number yet and Air India has had 787s in service since 2012. At that point it's a maintenance issue or outside influence. 13 years is generally out of the build quality issue unless it was something like "we expect you need to re-wing every 20 years" and turns out it's 10 oooor like the picked fork issue which was caught early.
Really, anytime you get in ANY plane you're spitting in God's eye and hoping for the best. There's hundreds of thousands of parts in a plane made across the world and your hoping someone wasnt slacking on a Friday while Airlines are like, "Do we really need to maintenance them that much" while a mechanic is using deck screws to secure a window....
Your last paragraph is true for pretty much any piece of critical infrastructure.
Except those pieces of critical infrastructure are not 37,000 feet in the air. But, yeah.
If it's Boeing, I'm not going.
