Thankfully I don’t fly any more but if I did, I sure as he*l wouldn’t board a 737 MAX regardless how many assurances I got that the problems have been fixed.

“Thankfully I don’t fly any more but if I did, I sure as he*l wouldn’t board a 737 MAX regardless how many assurances I got that the problems have been fixed.”

the REAL problem is essentially unfixable: the plane can’t glide with total loss of power because the engines had to be mounted forward and high on the wings because Boeing didn’t want to use the higher landing gear required to properly mount the larger engines because that would essentially result in a new model that would require extensive testing, approval, new simulators, new manuals, and new training ...

I’d load my family on the original max, as long as it was a Ethical operator. The root cause wasn’t the airplane but the priorities of the operators, and CCP owned media.
