User ID: 77288913 United States 07/28/2019 10:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If this is true, Dennis Muilenburg, Boeing CEO, should hang for this! And whomever signed off on this at the FAA should be on the gallows right along with him. I can see some sort of excuse if he had just joined the company while the MAX was being developed or something. But no, he's been with Boeing since 1985. He knew exactly where corners were being cut. The blood of 346 people are on his hands (plus the millions he put at risk) all for profit and stock prices. |

User ID: 77310734 Sweden 07/28/2019 11:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So we paid people to do a job that never did a job that got other people killed. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72677194 Pretty much. That's what H1-B visas are for, paying people to not do the job because it's cheaper. Same shit in Europe. Hiring unqualified Indian (and other tard world nations) street shitters to mess shit up, with the hope they won't mess it up. Wait for them to realize they can just stop hiring. Why do you think they're all so gung-ho about getting AI, it's so they can fire basically all staff. The AI will do the work. Their AIs unfortunately is programmed by people that don't know what the hell they are doing so the AI will be broken and fuck up in the end. It will not self correct it's code. AltSwede |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 76646175 United States 07/28/2019 12:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Speaking as an aerospace engineer, not employed by Boeing... You all are making a mountain out of a mole hill. All aerospace companies around the world do this. It’s normal. That being said, someone screwed up. But bottom line, the airline who operated the ill fated aircraft should have trained their crew properly. They were cutting more dangerous corners than the Boeing DER’s. They chose not to pay for a safety feature that would have allowed the pilots to avoid the failure they experienced and did not properly train the crews on the aircraft. I think I read somewhere they had basically completed some iPad training app and a handful of simulator hours. Should Boeing have made that safety feature mandatory? Probably. |

It wasn't so much the aerospace company it was the REGULATOR who did not do their job of doing inspections. They are supposed to be an objective neutral party and they failed to do so. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77129501 United States 07/28/2019 02:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Let me guess. Not enough qualified engineers because most hiring was for non-jobs for SJW grads. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77081041 No. The problem was too many H1Bs. They hired cheap foreign labor that didn't know what they fuck they were doing. The myth of the East Indian "genius" engineers is about as fuckin' played as dot-dot Indians being the best doctors on the planet. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77272669 United States 07/28/2019 02:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "Thanks to a 'broken regulatory process,' the Federal Aviation Administration has been passing off routine oversight tasks to manufacturers for years. In the case of the beleagured 737 Max, however, the plane was so advanced that the regulator 'handed nearly complete control to Boeing,' which was able to sign off on its own safety certificates, according to the New York Times. Quoting: Weyoun The lack of regulatory oversight meant that the FAA had no clue how Boeing's automated anti-stall system, known as MCAS, worked. In fact, 'regulators had never independently assessed the risks of the dangerous software' when they issued a 2017 approval for the plane."
