Those planes are still flying and hundreds of millions of ppl have survived the ride. I’m sorry 350 ppl died, but that’s the price we pay to have air travel.
uh huh. so if you were witness to any lapses in safety or ethics, you would just shove it under the rug ?

Boeing’s Dead Whistleblowers: Who Were Joshua Dean and John Barnett?

Boeing faces new FAA probe over 787 Dreamliner inspections, falsified record

Though the ChiCom’s COMAC is making some strides, the commercial passenger jet market has been a duopoly of Airbus and Boeing for quite a while. Obviously BA has to pay fair damages for any past negligence, but the hard truth is that it doesn’t make a lot of sense to try to put the U.S.’s only player out of business and turn Europe’s Airbus into a monopoly. But if you don’t like Boeing or are afraid of their planes, book a flight on an Airbus. They’re not hard to find.
Hmmmm…. January 2025?
Article above more all encompassing of the context.
From November 2025: these families may never get see any recourse or justice this side of eternity. Deep State Boeing is untouchable.
“Boeing will not face a criminal conspiracy charge over two 737 Max jetliner crashes that killed 346 people after a federal judge in Texas on Thursday granted the government’s request to dismiss the case.”
Airbus is not as embedded in the American Deep State this is true. And the 737 MAX was actually Boeing’s rushed attempt to copy Airbus’ latest and greatest, leading to the poor engine placement that requires cumbersome software to offset! 🤦🏻♀️
Boeing - with its blatant control of the courts and our government through lobbying and payouts — is the reason capitalism gets a bad rap and more and more people are voting for outright socialists. So I blame them for the rise of the extreme Left.
A good many of us us left after
the McDoD takeover of Boeing. We could not stand putting profit over safety.
I was twenty years of experimental Flight test. I helped certify every Boeing A/C up to the 777-300 ER.
Went to Keck Observatory in Hawaii and watched as the “Bean counters” destroyed Boeing.
Let’s not even mention Boeing’s Starliner manned space capsule ... billions and billions spent on failure.
A new legacy of DEI. Not kidding. They illegally and racistly pass up white men for black anything.
Ted Colbert, disgraced CEO of Boeing space who resigned, was promoted beyond his means to perform based on being black.
When he was promoted to CEO of Boeing Global Services, his entire first 20 minutes of his introductory speech and the first page of his presentation stated, “I AM AFRICAN!!! I AM DIVERSITY!!!”, even though he was born in Boston to American parents.
He certainly was DEI, and he destroyed much of Beoing.
I hope the 787 Dreamliner is OK. My husband and are supposed to fly on it to and from Australia in February.
The merger with McDonnell Douglas was the kiss of death.
Retread “news”. Why is this even posted?
When Mr. GG2 worked the line at Boeing in Everett he said they never let any aircraft go for delivery that wasn’t 101% checked out.
“X” recently revealed the geographical country of origin of its posting “influencers”, starkly illustrating the foreign interests involved.
I think we very much need the same thing to happen here on Free Republic.
~Easy
Wow thanks for sharing. Yes I keep hearing the shift from to darkness happened after the McDonnell Douglas merger…and also moving base.
Are you one of those Russia Russia Russia hoaxers? 🙄
See what I mean, folks?
