Good job. Unbelievable, there are still people out there (on a Pro-pilot rumour forum), denying what happened with the MAX and its whole saga at Boeing. :ugh:

Am I correct, you want to introduce a kind of "just-culture" around this subject ?

If so, in principle, this sounds a good idea, though looking a little further into the Boeing case, I don't...

Apologies for the misunderstanding.

Let me elaborate.

When one wants (at engineering) to create the best results, going "beyond" the current state of technology, one needs to take care, the...

The current Dominion vs. Foxnews case is a good starting point. Dominion is obviously not interested in the money, but in pulling Fox-fake-news with all its lies over the table, in court. Getting the...

This was clear to me, right from the beginning. People don't communicate in a way Forkner did, when they happily agree with the way they need to operate, on the contrary. Around the time, the Forkner...

Yes, I think, you are 100% right about that.

The issue is, why did this happen ? Were the engineers "just dumb", or were the engineers creating the spec just not allow to "discuss" these items...

Actually, arms serve a "higher" goal, even for the dictators, who want to expand their territory (Hitler, Putin, Xi).

Actually, my understanding is, MCAS-1 were 2 independent systems L/R, which did not communicate, but with only some kind of logic to switch-over on airplane boot-up. With MCAS-2, these systems now...

Ehhh, yes, it is not without reason, many people here write that the MAX should never have been designed and a clean-sheet restart should have been taken by Boeing. But, alas, that takes retraining,...

The bold part is the problem. As long as one is dealing with honest people, things are fine. The moment greed sets in, we get what happened to the MAX. Have less vague certification specifications...

I agree, it's not 100% avoidable to have some vagueness, in the end, flying is (for the foreseeable time) a human driven process.

However, striving to minimize the amount of vagueness could be...
