Especially since the FCC is busy killing net neutrality. ;-)

What plane was that? Lots of planes don't even have them and fly fine.

What we need to do is go back to the DC-3
But seriously it's more dangerous driving to the airport then getting on an airplane. |

Canada’s transportation minister grounded all Boeing 737 Max 8 and Max 9 jets on Wednesday morning, in the wake of a second deadly crash involving the jet. The move, he said was based on a review of newly available satellite tracking data that suggested similarities to last year’s crash of one of the planes. |

The only way out of this for Boeing would be to prove the pilots on both flights did not know to disable the auto systems. And also prove that faulty sensors couldn’t cause software issues. Good luck with that... I wouldn’t want to be someone on their software/systems development team right now.

The fact that Boeing is scrambling to push out a software update suggests that the rest of the world is justified in their concern.

Warren Buffet just bought a bunch of Delta, they don't have any 737 Max B in their fleet.

If Ford sells cars that lock up the front and rear right side wheels when a yaw sensor fails, do we let them off the hook because the drivers couldn't figure out how to disable the traction control in the limited amount of time before they spin into opposing traffic?

All the experts here need to contact the FAA and NTSB immediately with these accurate hypotheses. I’m sure nobody there, or at Boeing, thought of these things before.
Let’s wait for some more facts before we light the torches and get the pitchforks. |

At this point grounding would be a temporary embarrassment for the short term. Might delay delivery and payment if some planes are scheduled for immediate delivery, but stock price and orders will rebound quickly. A competent CEO and BOD are thinking in those terms and would make decisions accordingly. Based on reported domestic take-offs/landings (20,000+), there must be at least 100,000+ successful cycles worldwide. There are 2 crashes and a handful of pilots expressing concerns. Two crashes and loss of life is unacceptable, but there is no clear picture if the issue is product design, pilot error, a combination of both, or some environmental set of parameters that triggered the crashes and reported concerns. Would I board a 737Max8 tomorrow - yes. Do I understand other's reluctance - yes. |
