What does this have to do with Boeing?
Click to expand...

United Airlines Flight 35, an Oska-bound Boeing 777-200 with 249 souls on board, experienced a landing gear malfunction that caused a tire to separate from the widebody jet.

On Wednesday, Flight 1118, a Boeing 737 flying from Houston to Fort Myers, encountered an engine fire mid-flight.

That last one maybe be on United, but…..

Copied from Phantombullet:

"Last month a 737 Max landing in Newark, NJ experienced stuck rudder pedals upon touching down. This one skidded off the runway in Houston today after attempting a turn onto the taxiway and got stuck in the grass - a situation that could also involve stuck rudder pedals. No one injured, but damn...Boeing has got to come up with a way to fix that jet or the Airlines are going to start cancelling orders."

You guys are crazy.

Boeing built the plane but it’s up to the airline to train their own guys on maintenance and train their own pilots on handling incidents.

And then the engine has nothing to do with Boeing other than it bolts to the same pylon. Engine fires are the results of parts failures by the engine manufacturer or shit maintenance by airlines. Engine manufacturers are RR, P&W, GE, etc.

Put the blame where it should go not where it shouldn’t.

Like blaming Chevrolet if you don’t maintain your own car. WTH.

There's some credence in that, especially on the engine side, but landing gear malfunction and doors flying off mid-flight?

I'm no expert here, but I don't see the same problems being reported about AirBus and the recent order data is reflecting that.

Airbus Pulls Further Ahead of Boeing in Global Plane Rivalry

The European aerospace giant said it would deliver 800 planes this year, including its A320neo, which competes with Boeing’s troubled 737 Max. Airbus also announced progress on a new, more fuel-efficient aircraft.

Ahhh...so it's like when a ball joint on a toyota 4runner breaks after 250K miles and the car winds up in a ditch.... "FUCK TOYOTA AND THEIR SHITTY CARS"!

Am I on the right track?

do you know the maint. history on this airframe? If not, then assigning blame, or implied blame, is kinda fucking stupid. Ready-Fire-Aim. Calm down Plankton....

Ok for the Boeing fan club, please lets stop pretending Boeing has not had manufacturing and quality control issues for the past say 5 years.
So to say Boeing has not earned extra scrutiny is a little short sighted. Yes we know pilots, mechanics and all the others who contact and control flight can be contributing factors but the one common factor is the Boeing product.

For years you post every negative story on here about Boeing.
You sound like a MSNBC talking head Parroting the media when you do this.
Did somebody at Boeing upset you at some point?
Anytime something goes wrong it’s automatically Boeing’s fault in your mind.
Plane goes off the run way:Boeings fault
Engine explodes mid flight:Boeings fault
Tire comes off landing gear:Boeings fault

If you don’t like the company. Go fly Airbus.
You must prefer the French over America with the amount of bitching you do.

Here's where the plane went into the grass....after landing and rolling to the end of the runway. Still Boeings fault or are you just a dumbass?

I have zero against Boeing, but you Boeing honk’s continual denial of the quality issues of them, IS entertaining.

They’ve turned a once great company into a mediocre one at this point.

Boeing fully signed onto woke DEI program. However, this latest round of incidents, unless the planes are newly delivered, lean toward lax maintenance by the owners, not Boeing. It’ll be interesting to see what the NTSB report says.

McDonnell Douglas was a great company.

Boeing never really cared about putting out a great product.

I would say they both were. Much of my extended family had great careers at Boeing. My Uncle said when they switched leadership from Engineers to profit seeking CEO's is when the whole culture changed there.

That’s nothing. I have bought and sold BA a few times. I was expecting a much bigger dip than that.

That was kind of my point. I think it may still be a little beat up over the door bolt debacle. Anytime something happens to Boeing The media starts crying The sky is falling. Family is in Boeing hard. Like 40 years.

United's Boeing 737 Max Jet Veers Off Runway In Houston, Marking Third Incident In Week​

What the hell is happening with Boeing jets this week?

FRI MAR 8, AT 8:51 AM


Go woke, go...................diversity is our strength!!!!!! 🤪

Boeing wasn't sitting up front, it was United pilots.

You know what? Airliners have engine failures. They shred tires on takeoffs and landings. They are driven into the mud. And who's responsible? The airline that operates them.

Airlines have two choices in airframes. It's either Boeing or Airbus. American carriers fly mostly Boeing aircraft. So it shouldn't come as a big fucking surprise when a Boeing product has a maintenance issue or a pilot shits the bed.

The Alaska Airlines door plug failure was 100% Boeing's fault. But all these other incidents are just clickbait bullshit.

Well here are the latest Pilot scholarship winners awarded by Boeing. I guess different dresses counts as diversity?

LOL look at the show "props" lined up in the back. The guy in the middle is the scholarship administrator at Boeing. What's on either side of him is unclear :)
