And here we go again, another bOING 737 Max.
I’m not comfortable flying on new Boeing planes.

This is the result of corporate America not holding its executives personally accountable for gross negligence, and the unregulated monopolistic nature of a bunch of markets. It is well known in the industry that the whole fiasco regarding the 737 Max is caused by the acquisition of McDonnell-Douglas, and its shitty management that integrated with Boeing.
Who was held responsible for those 300 people dying? Who would have been for these guys? Who will be for the next accident?
Weird that the company used to have a safety culture before the acquisition - I just can’t imagine an aircraft company wanting to throw that away when it’s so valuable to customer trust.
It’s because the finance chucklefucks ran the numbers, saw data that indicated simply paying out injury and wrongful death settlements and safety penalties appeared to be cheaper than designing a new airframe, and went that route. It’s very literally all a numbers game, and the only numbers that really matter to these idiots are the ones with $ in the front.
I just watched Fight Club again, and this was literally Ed Norton’s character’s job.
a x b x c
If the number for the recall or redesign is higher than the lawsuits, they don’t do it. They let people die.
The only way to fight it is to have an automatic adjustment to all unit and wrongful death payouts times 10, hell 1000. There should be no cost on a human life.
lol I gotta watch that again
