I've worked with the milspec components used in aircraft, be afraid. I HATE flying in the best of times. When is it going to sink in that there may be sleepers working at GE, Boeing etc.? Dude? Guess what the guys name was who set up a recent interview for GE? Muhamed Abbas. I won't fly unless it is an extreme nessessity and sympathize with anyone who feels the same.
Not only sleepers there, what about sleepers in maintenance positions at the airports? We can't stop any of these people if they're working on the planes.
That is the understatement of the year. These union mechanics are so lazy they start the day with nothing to do and end half finished. And nobody gives a damn, there is no accountability. I still think this was a mechanical failure and not a terrorist attack - my opinion only.
