Not Boeing's fault after all?

This reminds me of the movie Fate Is The Hunter from back in 1964 when stewardesses were called just that.

Huh, so when are the airlines gonna ditch Boing boing Boeing and transition to Airbus or some other plane that is no doubt just as horrific, but we don't know about because they're not 'Murican?

Blame game.
"I locked the door".

Air travel is a risk.
I'll cover a few thousand miles this year, Lord willing.
Take care of yourself.

As I understand it, the major scheduled maintenance for the airlines is done overseas at "facilities" that have only one worker in 20 (to 50) that speak English. Which explains why some aircraft have door seals installed backwards and perhaps even cause the failure where the door blew out.

The magic words, again.

"Corporate Policy" (yuppy speak fer that old David Allen Coe jam..."We gonna screw the poop outta you....!")

Air Bus has had a variety of "issues"....

They all have. But hey - could be worse - could be a Russian plane where every part is hand-fit. Nothing possibly going wrong with a plane made by a bunch of Vodak-infused chain smoking swear-machines working for $1.25 an hour.

$1.25/hr? What's that in Rubles, 200k-250k/yr?

Still better than the odds of driving on Loop 610...

 

[Sasquatch]

THey need to make a sequal to Airplane! Except instead of asking for a doctor - "Do we have any mechanics on board?"

Have a look at a current You-Tube video regarding 'B' - It's scary a.f....glad I no longer fly to wherever as once I did...no thanks.

One of many reasons I no longer fly.

Biden will soon tell you it was Trumps fault.
