The Commission said on Monday after two recent crashes involving the Boeing 737 Max 8 that it doesn't see any reason to ground the planes in the U.S., even though the European Union today joined China and Ethiopia in doing so indefinitely. 157 people died from the crash of Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 on Sunday, which was a Boeing 737 Max.

I think it's fair to say that the FAA is no independent regulatory body, if they cannot see what is an obvious causality to others.

If one goes down it will be the largest lawsuit in world history. Huge gamble

Southwest canceled my flight to Phoenix during the middle of the night due to “mechanical problems”. I’m betting they pulled the aircraft. The pilot on my rebooked flight (standard 737) actually sort of acknowledged that something was up.

Southwest is having issues with their mechanics in the first place. Half of their fleet is out of service or some shit like that.

Who the fuck is the FAC?

AOC's cousin.

Just shut the fuck up and get on the plane. What's the worst that can happen, pussy?!

And article in the WSJ notes that a reason the corrective software fix isn't in place in part because, wait for it...the 5 week government shutdown prevented FAQ regulators to work with Boeing on it.

Yup. A noted socialist rag like the WSJ is chock full of fake news.

No, RR is correct. The FAA has to approve those types of changes. The NTSB couldn't get out and investigate things the way they normally would during the shutdown. The FDA couldn't approve drugs or implement new farming rules the way they normally would. the USDA could not conduct inspections of meat/food processing plants the way they normally would. The Gov't shutdown affected ALL of those things. These are facts, not "happy horseshit."

But if the FAA hadn’t signed off on the changes, wouldn’t the assumption be that Boeing can’t just go ahead and implement them anyway?

_________________

Yes, anyone with half a brain would understand the process. We are talking about RR and Frank, so common sense is not an option.

Explain the process to us all then, Mr Know It All. And don't use Google either.

_________________

Frank, you really think companies can do whatever they want because the government was shut down. So in your world, Tylenol could just add cyanide to their batch process and implement it into production because the government was shut down and the FDA couldn't sign off on it?

Still waiting for that explanation...

Clearly you don't.

You are the one who jumped in this thread to call me dumb, and you haven't posted anything of substance. Sticking to your inane Cubs posts and making fun of the Sox.

I was simply pointing out that noted commie rag WSJ raised the issue. With it's "happy horseshit".

And Frank raised a couple of issues that i fear will strike next.

Maybe it’s because I half less than a half of a brain but I don’t think that’s what Frank said or implied at all. In fact I took it to be the opposite.

Forget it, he's rolling.

And by rolling I mean "a fucking idiot." No wonder 312player found his comment so funny. smh.
