Was it yesterday that a FedEx Boeing’s front landing gear didn’t deploy?

How can a company get this bad this fast?

You’d think Biden was the CEO.

Fired the aerospace engineers running the company and replaced them with MBAs.

That FedEx plane was about 10 years old. Can't blame that on Boeing, but on FedEx maintenance.

This 737-300 is at least 15 years old and maybe older. The 737-300 was built from 1979 to 1990. Again, a maintenance issue, not a design flaw.

The plane is ten years old. Boeing does not do maintenance.

I am no fan of Boeing, but how did things get this bad at FR in such a short time. Blaming Boeing for everything even when there is no proof they did anything wrong in these instances. Knowing that it is very likely that someone or something else is to blame. And yet we have a Zombie chorus here just chanting a narrative like puppets on a string. Some of it apparently due to a loss of reasoning. Some of it is due to intentional disruption. But it is so hard to watch the decline.
