I'm sure if Boeing had correctly described the lack of these features as potentially crashing the airplane, these airlines would have bought them. As it is, hundreds of people had to die because Boeing wanted to make a little extra cash selling essential, potentially life saving features as add-ons. If that's not criminal, I don't know what is. Of course, I would bet money that no one is held responsible for this, as usual. We probably won't even get a canned apology. This airplane design should be grounded permanently. If Boeing is willing to let hundreds die by making critical systems optional, who knows what other issues the plane has that will kill even more people? There should also be an investigating into how this plane was certified, as clearly regulators failed to do their job and check Boeing's greed. The CEO and people at Boeing responsible for this plane should face criminal charges as well as anybody in the regulatory bodies who decided to certify this plane buying Boeing's claims that it was just another 737 when that is not the case. Without criminal charges, Boeing and other companies are going to continue to play with people's lives to make a few extra bucks.
