You're viewing a single thread.
In basic training our barracks would get "white glove" inspections, where the drill instructor would wear a literal white glove and run his finger over surfaces to detect anything that wasn't clean, dry, and serviceable. And I'm not talking about just the obvious places, but also things like under the benches in the showers, or up and in a wall locker ledge.
The ultimate goal wasn't to hand out demerits, it was to instill a sense of attention to detail in us. They asked us how could we be trusted to maintain nukes for example, when we failed to even find that stray clump of soap scum and pubes in the shower.
So that's all to say: If the boeing apparatus is so fucked that doors are falling off their aircraft mid-flight, what the fuck else have they missed?
what the fuck else have they missed?
If it's Boeing, I'm not going.
Even with the recent 737 max issues, it still remains safer to fly a Boeing than to drive wherever it is you're going. Unless you live in Japan, China, or certain parts of Europe and Asia with safe high speed rail, you're better off going with Boeing than almost anything else.
Yeah, but you can generally survive a car crash nowadays. Not on a Boeing plane deciding to commit sudoku and LARP as a IJN dive bomber.
Commit sudoku
Lol
Statistics can prove anything. 99% percent of everyone knows that. Be that as it may, I will walk before traveling on Starliner.
