Last boost: I've been hearing people in the aviation industry and just plane fan types saying they wouldn't fly on a 737 Max for at least two years now. It's kind of distressing how long this danger has been known within the community of experts and enthuisasts without being communicated to a wider audience.
This is bigger than just a Boeing or Alaska Airlines problem, though they're at fault for sure. IMO this is due to corruption a the FAA level
Like it's basically a systemic problem which people aren't detecting because it's systemic
The 737 maxes were grounded globally because like 350 people died
None of the underlying engineering flaws that led to this happening were ever addressed. They just slapped in a software solution that compensated the steering. Pilots hate them.
Most programmers I've told this to run screaming from the concept and I'm like. That is a totally rational response.
No airline that was run by pilots would operate the 737 Max. They're fundamentally unsafe. There is a shortage of pilots due to covid but also bc some quit over this.
No factory that was run by engineers and mechanics would produce them. They're not designed and built right. People have quit Boeing over this.
Rich managers are pushing this and corrupt government bureaucrats are enabling them. 737 Max enshittification is a direct result of workers being removed from decisionmaking processes.
