Years earlier, she had asked a boss if he would let his children fly on a plane with the litany of flaws and non-conformances he was urging her to “pencil-whip”: “Cindy, none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas,” he retorted, much to her horror.
I am genuinely curious why on Earth airline companies are still buying Boeing planes. The last 5-10 crashes all included their planes and it is a mystery why their shares didn’t tank more.
Organisational inertia. Planes are expensive, and getting them and qualified personnel to fly and maintain them is a long and complicated process for the airline companies (and the governments supporting the airlines).
They get the news about Boeing being crap, but they can’t just reverse a decision in one day, because the decision to go with Boeing was made years or decades ago.
Because what are you gonna do? Not fly?
Introducing Space X expedited flights from Florida to anywhere in the world… Remote pickup not included in conflict regions.
Use an airbus
Eventually
Because the stock market is a fucking scam.
I mean, yes, but what does that have to do with their question?
I’m dumb
It’s gambling for the rich and people who want to be rich.
It’s gambling for the people who want to be rich. It’s a bank and tax haven for those who are already rich.
they probably already bought too many of Boeing planes before these accidents happened. So what are they gonna do, put a bunch of Boeing planes in the back room and use Airbus? Still when i fly, I avoid Boeing like a plague. The problem is there are very limited Airbus flights for my route.
