Pitchforks and torches first. Facts later. It's the American way.

Didn't the investigations, (or at least the preliminary) into the two previous crashes reveal the same issue? It's gotta be only a matter of time before Congress steps in and once again, rebukes this president's ill-informed guidance to Boeing and grounds these things pending more detailed investigations.
And guess what, if it isn't done the right way through regulation like, you know, what we have a government for in the first place, then people will stop boarding the things or even buying a ticket from an airline that can't promise them they won't be flying on one, and the flights will be grounded anyhow. |

Absolutely not. It shouldn’t be a scenario in the first place. Quote:
Yes, this was my thought when I found out that they had been working on software updates after the Lion Air crash, but it was prevented from being rolled out due to push back from the FAA and then the govt shutdown came along shortly after. And then now this. I work in software. From experience, if a behavior is sometimes reproducible, there is definitely something there. Sorry to say, but people’s lives are in play here. Not just an inconvenience of an app on your phone not loading. |

"This AD was prompted by analysis performed by the manufacturer showing that if an erroneously high single angle of attack (AOA) sensor input is received by the flight control system, there is a potential for repeated nose-down trim commands of the horizontal stabilizer. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products."

Anyway, it’s moot now. They’re going to be grounded and that’s probably a good thing. It will force some light onto the design and could save Boeing’s hide in the long run. As with all aviation tragedies, I hope we can learn from these and prevent more from happening. Btw, I’m not in the least bit opposed to this grounding. It’s a reasonable precaution in light of two terrible accidents. I only asked for folks to get more facts before coming to conclusions. Last edited by saab2000; 03-13-2019 at 12:52 PM. |

makes sense. let's get the RCA done and any corrective actions implemented while the planes are on the ground, not in the air.

To be honest despite being skeptical of the "jump to conclustions" aspect of all this I think POTUS did a good thing here... he's actually stepped up and taken responsibility for this.
Now.. can we get some hysteria to get numerous models of car "grounded" or something? Cars have gotten way safer the last 10 years but they are still something like 200X more dangerous than flying airlines. |
