Just heard a quick blurb on BBC that another panel fell off a Boeing mid-flight which landed in the US. No harm done… wasn’t noticed until after they landed.
I think it’s important for these stories to continue getting attention because there are Boeing patrons who think “they’ll fix that problem and get it sorted”. They seem to have a lot of loyalty as they proudly claim Boeing is safe to fly on.
Or maybe I should ban myself from posting about Boeing here. My rationale is that Boeing is extra harmful for the environment because amid their #greenwashing they are an #ALEC member who finances #climateDenial. And bashing ecocidal travel is fair game for a sustainable travel community. And I guess this community is low volume enough that it’s good to have a heartbeat of sorts to give a sign of life here.
it should be news when boeing doesn’t have problems.
Yeah but we wouldn’t want positive news that promotes them… so the headline would need to be “A full week passed without a Boeing problem… could this be a turning point?”
more like “what are they covering up?”
indeed… even better!
