They’re doing it because it’s Boeing. The planes are safe.
If it ain’t Boeing, I ain’t going.
And you know this how??
Until they figure it out, if it’s Boeing I ain’t going.
Reminds me of when the first 737 Models had the Rudder issues with two Fatal Crashes and a couple of near crashes before they figured out the problem.

The two planes that went down certainly weren’t safe. Investigators need to determine why and correct the problem(s) whether mechanical, systems, and/or pilot related. It’s actually wise to temporarily stand them down.
Something to think about before jumping to any conclusion.
Indonesian investigators said on Wednesday a Lion Air Boeing 737 jet that plunged into the sea, killing 189 people onboard, was not airworthy on a flight the day before it crashed on Oct. 29.
The Oct. 28 flight from Bali to Jakarta had experienced similar technical issues to the doomed flight the next day from Jakarta to Pangkal Pinang, said Nurcahyo Utomo, head of Indonesia’s national transport safety committee (KNKT).
The pilot of the Oct. 28 flight chose to press on to Jakarta after shutting down the plane’s anti-stall system, Utomo said.
“This is the basis of our recommendation to Lion Air. In our view, the plane was not airworthy,” he told a news conference in Jakarta.
I will skip it for the moment. Two similar crashes are suspicious. I am bothered that Boeing deployed functionality that was not documented and thus no one was trained, warned, etc. very damning oversight.
Two crashes of BRAND NEW planes, a few months apart, both in the climb-out phase, both suffered rapid increases and decreases of altitude. Both in tropical / equatorial regions. Too many similarities between the crashes.
You call that SAFE?
Thank you for proving there are many FReepers who are ignorant, but still post.
At one time, FR was a place where those knowledgeable on a subject would help others understand events.
Today, on this subject, there is rampant ignorance, elitism and mindless platitudes.
Stupid post.
