If they don't, and pilots have to cover for their failures manually, that's one more avoidable point of failure.
Adding one more avoidable point of failure is NOT acceptable.
- Dalewyn 2y agoThat this has to be an either-or crusade against Boeing instead of blaming all the relevant parties speaks volumes about how much fucking damage "journalism" like this does. Once again: Both Boeing and the pilots along with whoever else is involved in this are all to blame equally. If you're going to let pilots who don't properly check their engine gauges off the hook because you are far more interested in crapping on Boeing specifically, planes are eventually going to come down regardless of Boeing.
