We don't know, if the manuals has a checklist to look at points for fatigue, and a bolt there is not listed for the right intervals, or the part was changed and a spare part was bad, then it's still Boeings fault.
I'm not saying it is, we don't know. I just would not blankly wave this away as "This is clearly not Boeings fault".
- KingOfCoders 3y agoSorry, you might know, I don't know you and didn't want to belittle you, so with "we" I've meant me and the clueless public.
- yawpitch 3y agoI never said anything like “this is clearly not Boeing’s fault”, I said it likely isn’t the fault of their recent QA issues, as in I’d bet money on this being someone failing to inspect and replace a part on schedule over it being a poorly made part of recent manufacture, or for that matter a badly specified maintenance schedule. Of course I could be wrong, but my guess is that when the full report comes back the onus will be on whomever didn’t follow the schedule rather than on the OEM.
