WTH is going on with Boeing????
Incident after incident after incident.....
With 1500 hours in a Lockheed C130, I can guarantee that Boeing doesn’t have the market cornered on inflight emergencies. Nearly 1 in 4 flights ended with an engine shutdown.
I’m leaning to heightened media attention.
But I wish Boeing would get back to the reliability I experienced in 1000 hours in a Boeing KC-135.
You must have been either a pilot or boom operator. Which one?!?!? Inquiring minds want to know. I used to work for a refueling squadron until early last year.
It is scary...Back in the ‘60’s when I was in the military, I flew (not a pilot or anything) to get from place to place quite a bit and never worried...
Today, I don’t think I’ll ever get on a plane again....
My GF works at Fairchild and I visit the base occasionally. And great airshow a couple years ago. Haven’t heard any plans for this year...
