1. Little doubt, with uncovered evidence, that (IMO) Boeing is responsible and that some Boeing execs should be personally prosecuted. Internal Boeing design data on the 737Max uncovered that Engineers estimated about 13 fatal crashes for the 737MAX over its lifetime. (OMG - and STILL built it with these known problems).

2. I am an "America First" person, and it would be devastating if Boeing goes Chapter 11, or worse. The 737MAX is critical to Boeing's future. AirBus would increase their worldwide lead in airframe mfr.

Boeing and FAA is betting that the MAX re-designs will correct the issues.

Would YOU or YOUR FAMILY go into a 737MAX for a flight?

I do agree senior executives who were responsible should be in prison
STU ... What is being referred to is that in your original post you left out a NOT.

You meant not had additional events but you omitted the NOT .. lol

I definitely would. I would say it’s probably one of the safest aircrafts. I’m sure they went over that plane with a fine tooth comb

I once flew Burma Air. They bought their planes used from India. Half way through the flight a couple of guys came down the aisle with a toolbox. They pulled up floor boards and worked on something. So yeah, I would fly the 737MAX,

Planes are safe, no matter the model, until the next one crashes. With many businesses having productive meetings online, instead in person, business may continue practice. I no longer travel for work so it’s not as big a deal for me.

Question is you may not know what plane you are flying until pre boarding. Then what do you do? Fly, or refuse

Question Why

Why fly on a plane that has had a history of problems without waiting for a reasonable length of time to ensure it is safe. I use to fly to Paris and London on a regular basis. Knew about the plane I was on and took the appropriate action to avoid potential exposures, (e.g. at the time Icelandic Airline was the safest airline so used it even though it added an hour or more to Paris via Luxembourg, etc.) A good website to see airline/airplane history is FCC.Org. Had a lot of experience on flying as once was on an attempted hijacking on flight to Vienna, another where there was a major mechanical problem, etc. My opinion is if you can reduce risk then do. I still believe the 737 Mask is a risk and would not fly on it without a year or more proving itself!!

Apparently you didn’t see 20/20 the other night. It wasn’t a safe aircraft and the top guy at Boeing knew it.
