Comment on Boeing 737 MAX suffers landing gear failure, rolls off runwayparent

Comments

I don’t mean to give a free pass to Boeing’s ineptitude but it’s not like people are dying or even injured during these recent failures. Grounding them all permanently would be an overreaction.

Kind of Iceberg Effect.

All these safety issues, might be 'minor'. What we can see.

But having a big up-tick, and you wonder about the 'big-one' about to happen, that is still the submerged part of ice-berg.

I think the company culture itself should require approval. Producing safe planes or achieving a type rating is not sufficient evidence of that. A pilot can land perfectly a hundred times and still be dangerous if they are not behaving properly.
