I agree.
I'm proud of being an American and a human for many reasons. (rational or irrational) I feel pride in Yosemite, the constitution, and our air safety establishments. It's truly amazing that (still) in the US we've gone so long without a truly catastrophic commercial passenger aviation accident (something like a billion flights!).
This whole saga really leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth and leaves me with a lot less pride in the US air safety institutions. I hope the truth of what happens comes out and the establishment fixes what was wrong.
-How did the design limits of MCAS get changed without updating the safety requirements for MCAS?
-Why didn't Boeing/FAA take the issue seriously between Lion and Ethiopian?
-After Ethiopian, why did Boeing, the FAA, US Airlines and US Pilots unions not ground/request to ground the MAXs, while foreign counterparts (including the Canadian pilots union) did?
There's a chance the FAA was acting on its best data and actually didn't think there was any significant danger.
- thecleaner 8y agoI hope that if theres a process problem it is quickly found and solved. The FAA has done a fantastic job with air safety. We can only hope that no such accidents occur in the future.
