Boeing had another weak month for aircraft sales in May, taking orders for just four new planes
Wish that this somehow translated to the people in charge of the shitshow being replaced, but I'm pretty sure it's the workers who will suffer instead. This failure is 1000% on an executive culture of "cut corners so line goes up", not the thousands of people who actually build the darn things.
It’s always the workers that suffer, even when things aren’t going horribly wrong. Corporations don’t care about people, they care about money. Making money, saving money, in that order. Employees are just numbers to them.
Employees are just numbers to them.
But unlike other numbers, those numbers must go down.
I hope the max dies.
Not because of the risks. The issues with it are important and any plane with those problems needs to go.
Specifically the max8 and max9, though. The option for that plane to make it the most cramped, uncomfortable, unhealthy plane in existence - the only option seemingly chosen by purchasers - means it has to go.
For Christ's sake, I needed to use the rear loo and the separation between my shoes in the loo and the Stew's shoes in the galley was ... A restroom partition with no bottom. No shit; well, full disclosure, much data was released. And they had to suffer it and then deliver snacks to passengers. It was embarrassing, horrible, unsafe; it was barbaric because I wasn't well. I could see their shoes not a foot from mine, and there was no visual or audio barrier between us; certainly no air barrier.
Those planes need to go. The person who dreamt up that configuration and offered it must be humiliated by the Hague.
Okay. Rant over.
Wait, there are planes where the toilets are not fully enclosed?? In a tightly sealed cabin??? This is beyond disgusting.
I mean, I too would not be real interested in a vehicle where parts have been known to fall off or small safety issues like oh I don't know PLOWING INTO THE GROUND SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF
Why aren't you buying our planes?
Umm, because planes are supposed to fly and remain intact?
:o
Boeing, based in Arlington, Virginia, delivered 24 jetliners in May, including 19 Max jets. Ireland's Ryanair got four and Alaska Airlines took three.
the Alaska Airlines jokes just write themselves.😂😂😂
