Considering that you cite complaints filed by pilots, then perhaps you would offer an explanation as to why the Pilots Union would hold a viewpoint contrary to your own?

From the CNN story you linked:

“Southwest Airlines’ pilots union is standing by the airline’s decision to continue to fly the Max. Southwest has 34 737 Max 8s — the largest fleet in the US. American operates 24 Max 8s and United flies 14 Max 9s.”

I note also that story cited “pilots” but provided no number as to how many complaints were actually lodged. I also note it strange that you source CNN, an outlet not recognized for its “factual” content, and usually quite handy with exaggeration and outright lies.

As to your story sourced from the Star Telegram, the link does not work.

Truth of the matter is I don’t like using up my handful of free looks at the Dallas News, but since you apparently don’t know how to use Google:

“The News found five complaints about the Boeing model in a federal database” https://www.dallasnews.com/business/airlines/2019/03/12/boeing-737-max-8-pilots-complained-feds-months-suspected-safety-flaw

Fox via Youtube “NASA had a list of complaints from Boeing 737 Max 8 pilots”

You also might try Russia Today via Youtube

The girl on RT will read some of the database posts to you if that would help your comprehension and seems to have the more comprehensive report.

And, by the way, the Startle-gram link works for me. Problem must be at your end. Here it is again.
