The Boeing jet lost the slide shortly after takeoff last week at New York City’s JFK Airport.
An emergency slide that fell off of a Delta passenger jet shortly after take-off last week reportedly turned up two days later outside the home of a lawyer whose firm is coincidently suing the Boeing plane manufacturer over safety issues.
Jake Bissell-Linsk, whose firm filed suit against Boeing after one of its planes lost a door plug mid-air back in January, said he discovered the deflated slide washed up outside his oceanfront home near New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on Sunday.
“I didn’t want to touch it but I got close enough to get a close look at it,” he told The New York Post of the bizarre discovery along the shore of Belle Harbor, Queens.
While I know you're correct... And there is definitely going to be a media bias in reporting... There seems to have been a remarkably large number of issues with Boeing planes specifically lately.
Shitting on Boeing is getting clicks. So the news keeps reporting on every bit of anything they can find related to them. The incident rate isn't going up. At the same time there have been a few issues with Airbus planes but that's not getting engagement as much so the news isn't focusing on them.
None of them are particularly rich. Two of them have spent 2 of the last 3 years at the southern border doing immigration cases (I’d say pro bono, but they get paid a pittance by the Feds…. Basically enough to cover a hotel room.)
No. You are inversing every statement that follows your questions. Why would we outlaw boats if they are safer than cars as you claim? Did you instead mean to say cars are safer than boats or ask why we haven't outlawed cars? Rinse and repeat for the other pairings.
E: You do realize you're saying the exact opposite thing than the person you're trying to mock, right?
Not all Boeing planes are garbage, and they are the cornerstone of domestic air travel. If we suddenly stopped flying them, ticket prices would triple. We have a lot of airbuses and some aging McDonnell Douglas planes, but Boeing probably makes up about half of American passenger planes.
