Deciding that you don't intend to maintain a project is labor. This sort of decision is hard to make and extremely hard to undo. Much easier to keep thinking, "I'll get to it next month."

Not many people would dispute that. From the article: "In 1996, Boeing took approximately 60% of the industry’s new commercial aircraft orders. Airbus, the European consortium, lingered far behind it, at 35%. McDonnell Douglas took the

Calling for? No. Don't shoot the messenger. In the first year of flying their most important new airplane, they managed to kill 350 passengers. This is unprecedented in modern air travel, worse than all others combined (including DC-9,

Have you tried notmuch? https://notmuchmail.org/ It uses a Xapian index, not an RDBMS, but it's impressive. RDBMSes aren't known for producing good natural language search results.

> [we] will do everything in or power to protect their data. Cambridge Analytica and other recent events show this statement to be meaningless. Facebook could have done a lot more to protect customer data but chose not to.

That doesn't even register compared to the Fukushima and Chernobyl cleanups. That link seems to support the OP's point.

"Amazingly good MCAS recoveries" are a crew success, yes, but they are even more a sign of aircraft and regulatory failure. You aren't acknolwedging that the MAX-8 has serious issues no matter where the pilot learned to fly.

by bronson 7y ago
You hype up reliance on US pilot training, but ignore Boeing's intent to NOT train pilots on MCAS (and especially its differences from existing behavior). Plenty of US pilots have gone on record saying that their US-based MAX-8 trainin

By US-based mentality, you mean one where it's OK to design an automation system that takes input from a single sensor? And this is somehow OK for American pilots, but not for foreigners? I think evidence will show you're wrong. T

"fact remain that the number of crash so far is 0" makes zero sense. And you even got an answer to your question. The number of deliveries is different. What's your point?

And how long can you hold it at max effort? Should MAX-8 training include a physical fitness component?

The fact is, Greece also has 0 crashes. Your statement doesn't make any sense. What is different about the US? (Other than we had fewer MAX-8 deliveries than the rest of the world)
