    Boeing going Boring again. 737 MAX is already in scrutiny.

    I’m glad there were no deaths.

      Agree, good on the crew for not trying to push through and turning it around. But these planes seriously should not be flying.

    Why are these planes still allowed to fly?

      Indeed, these should very obviously be grounded given that there are literally weekly disasters happening. At some point people are going to die.

        There have been, what? Two 737 MAX fatal crashes with hundreds killed? I think “at some point” already happened back in 2018.

          True, seems like more of that is just a matter of time.
