Credibility once lost is very hard to rebuild. I won’t fly a 737 Max because I just don’t trust Boeing, or even the FAA, anymore. Luckily for me the pandemic has effectively killed off what little flight loyalty points I once had, giving me an ample opportunity to switch over to airlines that only fly Airbus.
- mlindner 6y agoI'll fly on a 737 Max anytime. Heck I'd have flown on a 737 Max the day they stopped flying them. The problems have been fixed quite a long time ago.
- hedora 6y agoThe accounts of cheating on tests suggest that Boeing isn’t confident the problems haven’t even been fixed in simulation, let alone on the actual planes.
- ashtonkem 6y agoYou're literally commenting on an article that is asserting that Boeing cheated to get their plane re-certified. That does not imply that it was actually fixed correctly. If you want to fly alone on a 737 Max, fine. Don't do it above my house. But allowing members of the general public do it is another matter. It's the FAA's job to ensure that the plane is safe, and it sure looks like they're valuing Boeing's profits above that.
