People need to chill with the attacks on Boeing.

Boeing has been around for decades and has created some of the greatest pieces of machinery known to mankind.

And it will continue to exist and manufacture aircraft. :ufdup:

However, folks need to understand…there is a difference between a system related issue like MCAS versus an engine or landing gear failure issue.

The former is a manufacturer issue and the latter can be due to external factors (ie. bird strike) or maintenance issues.

So this is NOT a Boeing issue. :beli:

Seen another video of the same aircraft before landing that showed it having an engine flameout on climb out.

Pilot error could also be at play here too.

Safe travels breh....

I don't fly boeing.....ever

If you fly overseas, every major carrier operates Boeing aircraft out of YYZ.

Cathay Pacific, Philippines Airlines, KLM, BA, Ethiopian, Air France, Air Canada, Etihad & Emirates. Just to name a few.

These are some airlines that use a variation of Airbus and Boeing aircraft. Just depends on the season and passenger load.

Air Canada primarily fly the 787-8/9 and 777-300ER to most destinations across the atlantic and pacific with some routes occasionally getting the A330-300.

For Americans, UA, Delta and American primarily fly Boeing overseas. However, Delta and American utilize the A330 on some international routes but United has no widebody airbus aircraft. All Boeing for United on international flights.

Emirates uses the airbus 380 in many overseas flights

You work for Boeing? Got shares in their stocks? Got a family member working for them?

Your post reeks of a strong bias talking about "pilot error" with factual data to supporting the opposite. Once they get a hold of the black box we will find out if it was pilot error or manufacturer engineering defect. Blaming a pilot error is the easy cop out.

Look two posts above my post and let me know if that was "pilot error". Boeing needs to be held accountable.

I'm always very meticulous when travelling, from checking out the best routes, flight times and yes, aircraft.

I almost always typically will opt for a wide-body vs a narrow-body jet, even if it means taking a longer route because they handle turbulence better. Will go for an airline with the better track record usually as well even if it means paying a bit extra.

Some of these newer model Airbus aircraft have never even been involved in any major incidents i.e A380, A350, A330 neo etc. Neither have some older models like their A340. I will still take newer model Boeings like the 787s for long haul flights as they have excellent track records and super advanced systems, even down to turbulence dampening. I've taken the MAX as well on Ethiopian at that, and can't like lie was a bit nervous at first, but it's probably one of the safest aircrafts in sky now after it was grounded and had all of their issues addressed. Will typically avoid the older 737s if I can. Would take the newer CRJs before I take them, even though they are smaller. All in all modern aviation travel is extremely safe and the newer aircraft models are equipped with so many redundancy systems, they basically fly themselves while they are in the air.

You can look up FlightAware if you want more details about different flights. It's a really good resource.

R.I.P to those that perished in this accident. For anyone willing to read, I posted this before on a discussion involving another incident with Boeing.

From what I've read, there were 2 survivors in this accident - both flight attendants who were found unconscious in the back of the plane.

Boeing opened 2024 with a door popping off one of these planes just 5 days in...we're 4 days away from 2025 and they're back in the news with some more fukkery...and lobbists want to keep vying for further deregulation...

I'm convinced these greedy b*stards need to have American lives taken on American soil (or just perhaps white lives in a white nation) to be motivated to truly do anything, but I hope I'm wrong. Korea is a developed nation, though, so I can't see them trying to run the same racist rhetoric they did when these planes crashed in Indonesia and Ethiopia.
That muhfukka has an awful way of sending new year greetings :what:

How did those 2 survivors make it? Looking like they’re the only survivors.
