    I look forward to the investigation results on this one. I’m not afraid of flying but this would terrify me.

    How the heck did a relatively new plane get a compromised fuselage like this??

    This is the company that got us to the Moon. A great example of how quarterly thinking and refusing to invest in engineering can destroy any business.

    This has to be corrupt as fuck.

    You have to believe if this wasn’t an American company then they wouldn’t be able to fly again.

    Thing is, the max8 and max9 planes are horrible.

    I’m okay if they’re grounded for good. Or, fuck that; let us choose the airplane we want/will fly in. Tickets on the max8/max9 will go through the floor, and ideally then the airline will have to offload that trash.
