If God had meant for me to fly ... He wouldn’t have let me read articles like this one.

How about the cockpit is capable of maintaining its own, separate pressurization so the pilots don’t have to do their best impression of Darth Vader while landing a crippled plane?

Too bad but Boing has pushed the design too far for too long. It is a low to the ground airplane and a stretched fuselage makes it more prone to tail strikes. So it needs higher landing speeds. Just one not good at all factor. All good things come to an end.

Ummm. I thought the cockpit doors were supposed to be locked during flight, courtesy of our mooslim friends after 9-11. Are they saying the locks didn’t work? That’s pretty comforting, no?

Yes, the cabin door is suppose to be reinforced and secure. The depressurization opening it is a huge deal.

Boeing gets a bad rap for the auto-pilot software that allegedly caused two mass fatality crashes.

That same software was used for 18 months in Europe, North America, Aus-NZ, Japan, and the Persian Gulf.

Not one incident report was filed in those countries in regard to the software after more than 60,000 flights.

The two fatal crashes involved four Muslim pilots flying for two lesser developed countries.

Civil aviation safety is not a priority at Boeing any more.

Blancolirio has some new information.

This aircraft was logging multiple fail overs of the cabin pressurization system, suggesting the door plug was leaking prior to the event.

Airlines build their own manuals and train a majority of their own pilots. The do this based on OEM supplied data. MCAS was covered in the 2017 Boeing manual.
