The proof is in Hilary's emails, I am sure. Either that, or on Hunter's laptop. Maybe Biden shouod be impeached over that, what do you think?

Well, it actually does at up. Don't forget, the software was initially insufficient as well.

We have to go by some standard, if we don't we fave full anarchy. In a democratic society, that ultimately comes down to the laws and courts at the bitter end. If we ignore that, we can just forget about anything, can't we? And ye

Can we please stopping the cringe-meme of blaming MBAs? I assure you, engineers are just as prone to fall for greed and being unethical and sycophantic as MBAs, doctors, journalists or software engineers.

No, the FAA didn't cut corners, Boeing did. The FAA did a bad job catching it. And being certified by both means that orgs and aircraft are certified by both. Decades of cooperation and alignment of regulations and requirements mean th

The process you decribe is what I would call non-comliant and a major finding in and of itself. Also, none of those instruction live in some opaque system. Don't know where got that idea from.

It is certified by both, with EASA nasically accepting the FAA certication at face value (oversimplified a bit). That means trusting the other agency. It was this trust that was hurt by the initial B737 MAX scandle and the handling of it by

That is, lets be generous, an interesting take. Fact is, VW engines had a mode recognizing a test and adopted AdBlue and fuel mixture to meet emission standards. On the road, these engines ran dirty. That was explicitely stated to be ille

Now I could do my own digging, or I could trust Murrays lawyers doing that for their law suite against LWT (no idea why I kept adding a N...). A law suite they lost. If LWT reporting were factually wrong, I assume it would have been brought

No idea. When it comes to bad quality controls and processes, the model doesn't matter much so. Also, I have no idea how Airbusbis surveilling and working with Spirit Aerospace compared to Boeing.

Yes, the tendency is not great. Besides the Boeing issues, there is a tendency in pilot training and flight operations I don't like, e.g. more flight hours, tough shift planning, training to be paid for the junior pilots. That being sa

Those cherry picked facts came from actual law suites in which Murray and his company was found liable, if I remember correctly.
73.
by hef19898 3y ago
Yes, it is. And 20-30 years ago it was saver than, say, 50 years ago. Like in medcine, people don't always see those incrementle improvements over time.

by hef19898 3y ago
Similar, but not the same. Fox News is repeatily caught lying, and paying through the nose for it, while factually LWTN, so far, never did that. Also, if I remeber correctly, Murray didnnot attack them on the reportes facts, did he?

by hef19898 3y ago
Almost 30 years after the fact? I don't think so.

by hef19898 3y ago
Not sure I can actually agree with that, at least in such broad strokes. And no, I know that it is not just a dog and pony show. "It" is the reason air travel is as safe as it is today, and that is way saver than 20 or 30 years

Well, Airbus is a customer of Spirit Aerospace. And Premium Aerotec, well, they were very, very close to spin it out completely. Bavk the day, it was part of what today is Defence and Space. And Premium Aerotec is subsiediary of Airbus, i

It kind ofnmade sense so: Tier one aerostructure suppliers are doing the easiest work, not like avionics and engine OEMs. By having those activities in-house, you have a cost center. Having that as a third-party turns it into a profit cente

You are pinting to a very serious issue. Up until the 737 MAX, if someone or something had FAA or EASA certification, getting the other one was more or less just a formality. And this helped everyone a lot , and in fact made things saver a

by hef19898 3y ago
And you are absolutely right. To some details, for anyone interested (from an EASA point of view, working in Europe I never had to bother directly with the FAA): - regulators provide general rules to be followed - companies define theirbway

Agree, nobody should base their opinions on a single source of news. As someone who stopped taking certain news outlets on my side of the political spectrum serious after running into Gell-Mann once to often, I have to say, with decent ba

As a half-engineer myself, I have to say this: people need to be reminded that it was engineers that were at the highest levels, CEO and down, behind Dieselgate and, yes, the issues at Boeing as well. Engineers are not per-se better at bu

That would be the starting point, by now it looks like an endemic issue at Boeing.

As I wrote elsewhere, under EASA rules high ranking people at an organization holding design and / or production organisation approvals, are personally responsible, and liable incl. criminal liability, to make sure their organisation w

Damn, I missed that, "Broken Dreams" I mean. Have to track that one down!

Man, you started all of this by pointing to the interviews in the particular show about Boeing, and you wonder why people keep coming back to that particular show? You did point out those "interviews", which weren't even in

Thanks! This whole Trumps hand size thing was started by Trump himself.

As I said, their reporting has been scrutinzed a lot . Including a multi-million dollar defamition suite brought by this coal magnate. Guess what, the show didn't get it wrong. You don'z have to like the humor or bias of the show

The main execs still stand trial in Germany so.

Wow, Richelieu. You know what, this changes if whatever was written is backed up by actual facts, like recorded quality issues being left unmittigated that let to hull losses and serious incidents as it did in the case of Boeing. That is th
