No, the bad news streak did not start this year - but when Boeing dismissed two international 737 Max airplanes crashes within months of each other back in 2018-19 resulting in the deaths of hundreds.

Dreamliner = Nightmare Liner

Boeing did not kill itself.

They had bird brains on the board of directors instead of aeronautical engineers.

Really wonder if Boeing is the target of industrial espionage and sabotage. China and the EU have made huge investments to design and build commercial airliners. They would love to knock Boeing off its lofty perch.

Boeing is 108 years old. They should know how to make airplanes.

Suddenly everything goes wrong.

Is this intentional, sabotage perhaps?

Going to be interesting to see what the Boeing social media team here is going to do to call this one ‘pilot error’:

“Boeing’s reason: Those records don’t actually exist”

[dfwgator]

If it’s Boeing, I ain’t going.

It will be years before they will recover, if they can recover. Their business is going to China.

It started when Rockwell took over, fired the engineers and outsourced most of production. They just started being an assembler of sub components.

This put the financial burden on suppliers.

They are now starting to reverse this for example they are buying back Spirit Aerosystems in Tulsa.

I’m afraid WWII’s hero, Rosie the Riveter, has now become Stephanie Pope the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer and a few screws are loose somewhere

[PGR88]

Boeing, for sure, is a highly political company. Its probably being pulled in a dozen different directions by Government, wokeism, Pentagon demands, deep-state insider cronyism

That is what will destroy it.

Boeing Affirmative Action Airlines. Our motto: Shit may fall off our aircraft midflight, but we'll get your pronouns right.

A former Boeing quality control manager who was cooperating with the investigation was found dead -- supposedly suicide.

Boeing whistleblower found dead of a 'self-inflicted wound'

[JustaTech]

It’s interesting that two of the aircraft exhibited flight control anomalies while landing.

There are possibilities for airport equipment to interfere with flight control electronics.

Looks like Elon is going to have to start making airplanes too,

[SuperLuminal]

Hmmm...

First, we had large forest fires...

Second, we had many chemical & petroleum plant fires...

Third, we had food-processing plant fires...

Fourth, we had an explosion & acceptance of looting and shoplifting...

Fifth, we had a massive escalation of the invasion across the southern border...

Sixth, we had an explosion of rape, murder, and drunk driving...

Seventh, we have accepted that election processes are as corrupt as those of the mangiest 3rd world countries...

Eighth, we have commercial airplanes falling to pieces...

If someone suffered from paranoia, they might detect some sort of suspicious pattern in recent history...

Maybe they ought to headhunt some Airbus engineers for help with their fly0by-wire technology. Yep, I said it. Airbus doesn’t have those problems.

"Technical Event" = Hit air pocket while on Autopilot and aircraft attitude changed to non-nominal (nose down)

And it took a minute for crew to recover control.

[SkyDancer]

A lot of equipment and parts are outsourced and a program called JIT (Just In Time) for parts and equipment to show up on the production line as the aircraft is assembled.
