Boeing’s best-selling jet was grounded globally in March, days after the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines flight that followed a similar Lion Air disaster in Indonesia in October. The two crashes took 346 lives. Airlines have urged global regulators to coordinate with one another to avoid damaging splits over safety as they evaluate software changes undertaken by Boeing. Some countries have already vowed to run their own independent validation studies before restoring flights.

I don't trust anything she or gobble gobble say!

Why Boeing should not become political football? It has criminally failed as leader of commercial aviation.

I would not fly on a 737 MAX

Because we have investment there.

You know things are bad when Trump-favor job peeps are announcing things that could be construed as real work.

How could anything out of Chao's mouth be trusted, after the designated special liaison? No Trump appointee should be trusted to do anything other than self-serve.

Speaking of people who need to be impeached....

Lolololol I think she has bigger shit to worry about!

Federal investigators say the FAA's Boeing 737 Max inspectors were insufficiently trainedThe U.S. Office of the Special Counsel says FAA inspectors who worked on the Boeing 737 Max and other aircraft were underqualified and that the air safety agency misled lawmakers about it. Or Boeing took 'Good Care' of 'em 🤔 FAA didn't do any inspecting as they off loaded their responsibilities to Boeing to tell them all was OK. Stop making up stories.

Boeing to start paying families of Max 737 crash victimsThe compensation fund pledged $50 million to family members of the 346 killed in the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines crashes. 144K? Who signed off on that? That’s a desig flaw. It should be $100K for every second those poor people suffered on the way down. Oh that’s right they’re from another country, it’s cheaper over there. It's the right thing to do , but it still won't heal the families' Not even close to being enough. Anything less than a million is an insult. But then we wouldn’t want to give away so much money that the Boeing execs bonuses might shrink now would we!!

How Boeing's compensation fund for Boeing 737 Max victims was decidedBoeing’s victim compensation fund will provide $50 million to be distributed to families of the two 737 Max crashes. With victims from 35 countries, this is what Ken Feinberg of the Boeing Victims Fund Administration calls “a real challenge.” Boeing made $8 billion in profits last year. $50 million is a joke. THEY SHOULD BE BROUGHT UP ON MURDER CHARGES.!! The EU will get a hold of Boeing before long.
