The older ones were definitely not ok. Look up their rudder issues.

I choose to shid on Boeing, their products own precisely 0% of the blame.

To be fair the 737 max is a shiddy design that should not have been made in the first place. The dumaah way that MCAS got data just from a single AOA sensor is the cherry on top of this pile of manure. (I’m an Airbus fanboy if you couldn’t tell)

Just make sure to shid on their leadership after they merged with MD. Those are the _rule_diots that killed Boeing’s culture and did a lot of other capitalist pig aah things like selling off their supply chain. The current ceo is ok or so I’ve heard.

Context: my other comment got removed because I used that word that Airbus GPWS says just before touchdown. To be fair I used it to offend Boeing’s engineering and not as a technical term.

Relying on a single sensor was a terrible design decision, not bothering to inform and update/retrain pilots on the new addition to their steering process was downright criminally negligent and should see several executives in prison.

This swear filter evading is out of hand, just say the words you mean; changing the spelling of the word doesn’t change the intent/meaning.

Hey, I understood some of that!

Seriously though as a frequent flier thanks for the insight. Airbus for life. Um, maybe literally....
