Jeju Air 737-800 gear up landing slams into wall

Deserved or not, they brought the attention on themselves. This is just the fallout.

That’s what you get when you listen to the stock market for your engineering advice.

True. But MCAS was still flyable.


I’m far more POed about the plug door blowout (and not because it’s shop). The door plug blowing out is 100% on Boeing. Nothing any airline could have done in the first 12 months of ownership to catch that mistake. When you buy a car, you don’t rip panels off to inspect the sheet metal behind.

I agree that it is the penance for sins committed years ago now, but at this point, it is starting to just get irritating. In the way that a guy saying he saw a HAL jet with an engine fire leave Seattle, called POS, and let them know, and fortunately the POS contacted ATC who contacted the pilots and they turned around, thanks to this dude. People have no idea how anything works in any segment of the world, let alone aviation. But they all think they do because they can google and reddit. They are • morons. I'll say to all of them, with respect to Air India, and this mishap......told ya so, dumb a**es. But I guess we can also continue to intentionally try to undermine the #51st (or so) US corporation for altruistic purposes. Because they are of course all idiots who built this weird unexpected fuel kill switch into software for no reason. The only solution is of course alphabet tech. They don't ever f*** everything around them up every single time.

You’re describing JC here, just as much as many others in this country. A large Land of Google instant experts, on any subject at hand.
