Hah! That’s Babylon Bee level sarcasm!

Good grief. So Airbus is even worse. They need Boeing to attach the engines to their airplanes!

Guess United farmed out aircraft maintenance to Pep Boys.

A couple of years ago, United started bragging about developing the most “diverse” group of pilots ever. They didn’t say so, but I suspect they apply the same mentality to their maintenance personnel.

“Everyone always wants blame any plane issue on Boeing when Airbus still has problems.”
Exactly, and if you fly on a Boeing or an Airbus, it is safer today than ever.
To: Round Earther
You are correct. It is absolutely absurd at the criticism Boeing is getting.

Boeing?Sorry to disappoint you, it was an Airbus A320.
Should have know, it didn't say Airbus in the headline. If it was Boeing it would be all over the place.
