The consequences of affirmative action job hires are starting to become more apparent. I guess the fart-left liberals would say they need another twenty dollar wage increase.

How many Boeing whistleblowers have to be murdered before this disaster stops?!

Let's stop the Boeing bashing. From the article:

The aircraft involved is a 23-year-old Boeing 777 plane, according to Airfleets Aviation.

This is getting old.

I’ve been one of Boeing’s - and the industry itself - greatest critics for years.

But unless the so-called ‘media’ chooses to report equally on ALL mechanical issues with ALL manufacturers & airlines, this is just clickbait, likely ranked by AI for number of clicks.

Thanks for keeping us informed about the latest Boeing “disaster”. I heard recently that one of the tires on a Boeing aircraft had low pressure that was caught right before it was scheduled to depart. If this had not been caught in time who knows what could have happened. The resulting tread wear could have caused the tire to have to be replaced weeks before its projected life had been reached.

Few details.

About half of all commercial jets flying are Boeing. Millions of parts flying in formation at hundreds of thousands of flight hours a year, things are going to break. It is a statistical certainty.

All of the handwringers need to get a grip and realize what news manipulation is..

“”Few details.””

That’s for sure. WHERE was the plane headed? If it was going to LAX anyway, why is it reported as an emergency landing. An emergency landing would have been somewhere other than their planned destination, wouldn’t it?

If it’s Boeing, don’t be going.

OMG!!!! It even arrived 9 minutes ahead of schedule. The horror! Maybe one of the aft galley coffee makers quit.

BTW - American Airlines had 5926 flights yesterday. There were a total of 99,920 flights yesterday. https://www.flightera.net/en/

Yet another example of the effect of Biden-Obama deliberate misdirection of America’s economy. Cost-cutting and personnel shortages, I suspect, are behind these incidents.

Next a catastrophic failure in flight.

Biden will have left the airline industry in tatters.

The elite ruling classes are waging a war on common air carrier (Part 121 operations) air travel for the masses. They don’t want you flying anymore. They can smell your Walmart stink all the way at the other side of the airport reserved for part 135 operations enjoyed by the elite class and government fleets of aircraft for their exclusive use.

This is likely a maintenance issue due to a lack of skilled technicians. The problem goes beyond the airline industry and is only going to get worse. The Millennial Slump.

Wow, this is starting to look a lot like the end of Atlas Shrugged.

Well, the left wants people not to be free to travel, to stay put.

Since they cannot legislate or regulate it, they can make it so dangerous that people give it up willingly.

At any moment, there are thousands of airplanes from different manufacturers in the sky. Thousands. And as soon as they are delivered - just like the cars we drive - things start deteriorating. Fortunately, very, very few people die in airplane accidents (compare that to deaths in auto accidents). Why? Because airplanes are rigorously tested during certification. Cars do not come even close to the rigor applied to airplanes during the certification process. So instead of going all paranoid, folks should keep in mind that things wear out on airplanes also. And that is normal.

The news is concentrating on Boeing mechanical failure returns. How many Airbus returns have there been over the same period over the same number of flights? More, less, the same? What were the return numbers 5 years ago and 10 years for Boeing and Airbus for comparison’s sake. Just trying to determine how much of this is attributable to modern day Boeing production flaws and how these incidents relate to the historical norms and compare to the other airline manufacturer
