      No way, in aerospace manufacturing assholes start to pucker when shit like this happens because everyone knows SOMEONE is going to jail. You’re just watching the natural consequences of American executives not giving a fuck so long as the money keeps rolling. Not you, not your family, not the environment, nothing but the almighty dollar. American aeronautics is a joke now and unfortunately that means fucked up planes on the runway. I’m not getting in a plane for the foreseeable future to tell you the truth.

      The safest form of transport is elevators, the next safest is planes. There's just a media furor around plane shit now because of Boeing. Same as when there was a bunch of derailment news following East Palestine
