Discussion of Boeing and their products. Since there is a duopoly with Airbus, chatter about Airbus is also /on topic/. Negative comments are as welcome as positive ones. All ideas that are on topic and presented in a civil manner are welcome.

Obligatory, that’s not very typical; I’d like to make that point.

It was probably made with sellotape. And card board.

Well, there are a lot of these jets going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that airliners aren’t safe.
