    Would never fly on anything Boeing makes at this point. It still amazes me that nobody went to jail over 737 max.

      I get the sentiment, but apparently this particular model is absurdly popular. Of all passenger planes in the world, 17% are Boeing 737-800’s. Crash a random plane and it has a good chance of being a Boeing 737-800.

        The sentiment comes from reading about how Boeing managers made a callous decision to push out 737 max despite the protests of engineers who knew these things were flying coffins. It’s a window into how decisions are made in these companies.

    This one is really strange… apparently there is a video of it crashing almost vertically in a strait line down.
