It’s gotta be the same trolls that visit every Boeing thread claiming accidents are the fault of the airport not the manufacturer. They are fucking relentless.
First off fuck Boeing. Second off. When a part falls off of a 30 year old plane it's typically because the airline that owns it fucked up in the maintenance of the plane, sometimes it's the manufacturer not stating a correct procedure, or having the stated intervals too long, but just as many aviation accidents have been caused by fuckups during maintenance.
Or sometimes manufacturers simply send a wrong manual which doesn't apply to your aircraft at all. And it turns out you have to order one from across the ocean because the whole continent got the wrong manuals. Don't ask how I know.
And there it is.
I read this whole comment thread but somehow missed that one? What prompted this?
Any post with the name ‘boeing’ usually comes with the ‘actually’ bots. Just give this one some time for them to recalibrate
Probably, but I can’t help but feel you are what you accuse here, leveling an accusation at a target which doesn’t exist yet.
Ok Boeing.
Fuck Boeing, but your comment was still a nonsense hammer in search of a nail, and what you said would come never came.
Selective reading.
I reread all the comments. Please link to the specific one.
Please don’t post bad faith trolling.
I actually did reread them, and I don’t believe I’m trolling. I am genuinely curious if you believe a comment here did as you claimed and if so which one? Please be specific.
Those people are just clarifying headlines that give no idea how long the plane was in service. If they’ve been in service for over a decade it stands to reason that the maintenance on the plane might have been faulty. OFC Boeing should be investigated due to the door plug blow-out, and have previously demonstrated their willingness to cut corners with the Max debacle. That doesn’t mean every incident is their direct fault, and Airbus can suffer similar incidents but not be reported on.
Mmmm . . . Botty
You’re calling me a bot for adding context?
Apparently not wanting to burn Boeing to the ground regardless of who was in the wrong is a sign of being a bot
Er, no - because the crashes weren’t the topic. It was just very sudden-left-turn which felt bot-like. Agreed about the Boeing crashes, they’re just different from the deaths of the Boeing whistleblowers.
I was responding to someone who specifically brought up the crashes…
Yeah I saw that. They said “The trolls talk about the crashes” and then you were talking about the crashes. Which, y’know, is kind of funny.
I guess it is kinda funny, considering the person I quoted did bring it up. Have a great day mate, I’m done with this circuitous convo
But you spoke as if its already happening. in fact your post reads as if you are replying to someone? Honestly if anyone is coming off as a bot its you dude. I, of course, don't think you are but....your post makes absolutely no sense in the current context.
Lol and yet 65 ppl got it.
No it's just that you spoke out against Boeing and people upvoted you despite the lack of context.
That’s a lot of prediction for someone demanding facts.
What?
Who are you even talking about?
