Airlines Defend Dormant 737 Max Jets from Corrosion, Insects and Time
- BitwiseFool 7y agoEven after they re-certify the aircraft, stories like this make me want to totally avoid flying on a 737-Max. Despite the checklists and procedures outlined by Boeing, I can't help but think something minor will be overlooked. Even during short periods of downtime neglecting procedures can be fatal. Just look at Birgenair Flight 301. The pilot tubes were left uncovered for only two days. In that time a wasp built a nest inside of it and that lead to the loss of the entire plane. There were no survivors.
