ManTiger:


The 2 pilots on the craft and FO (first officers) are well experienced and they are not citizen of the 3rd world country as you may think, I personally read their profiles.

I believe the issue of this 737 Max 8 is partly a factory error, maintenance and pilot technique!

Since some American airlines have refused to remove them from their fleet and are confidence of their "safety and airworthiness", then I guess the previous crashes involving Indonesia, China and now Ethiopia were due to carelessness on the part of the airline servicing crew! QED!!
What makes you to believe due to carelessness of Airline ? For your information Ethiopian airlines has the best safety records all the times. Do you think all those countries including US would decide to ground this model with out confirming the plane has technical fault

U seem 2no more than d pilots who lost their lives in Indonesia & Ethiopia. U also seem 2no more than d pilots in d US who are lodging complaints about d plane. U also seem 2no more than d pilots union in d US that has said it's member can refuse 2 fly Max 8 if they are worried about its safety. According 2u d problem has been handled safely in d US& we are on this thread. It has been handled safely in Europe, yet Europe, US, Singapore, Canada have banned d plane.

martineverest:
useless company..they have been manufacturing killer planes with poor airworthiness.thank God the European union,Asians and African countries are grounding the planes...Boeing market share will plunge


time for Airbus sales to soar

Price for airbus no be moimoi. And na you go help Dem find all d passengers for a short flight?Airbus is damn big you can just put 140 passengers on a short trip.na loss to d company

sexyking1:
Kai see how Boeing 737 carrier end!
Prayers; my Father my Father any incidents or accident, directly or indirectly planned to end my carrier must be destroyed in Jesus Name! Amen

KingAzubuike:
Boeing is a very complex and dangerous aircraft to fly compared to cesenna and the likes. To prevent future disastrous occurrence like this, I suggest airports and aviation authorities around the world should make commercial airliners fly on cesennas only which usually is safer and can accommodate a maximum of 4 passengers. Even if na Australia or new Zealand you dey go they will first go and drop four passengers first before they come back to carry another four. That's my own opinion.

Edagentle:
That's quite long to read, someone read and summarize abeg.

If Boeing doesn't manage this well, it will wreck their business! Airbus will be happy with Boeing's tragedy but not necessarily that people died!

BigBashiru:


Boeing deserves to be out of business.

You problem is reading without comprehension! The two American carriers have technical maintenance crew whose working policies are of international standards. The countries whose air carriers experienced crashes are third world and developing countries whose safety standards are shabby and epileptic!

Indonesia for the past 4 years have been having series of air mishaps! Are all the aircrafts involved in the air accidents only the 737 Max 8 model?

Have the American Carriers who said the aircrafts are on their fleet and are not ready to ground them had any air mishap involving the 737-8 Max model before?

Answer the questions above before you start blabbing about "mental slavery".

I am sure that when they tell people like you to patronize Innoson, you will rather choose to buy Camry Muscle and the issue of "mental slavery" won't register by then.

Reference:


I did not say anywhere that the aircraft is safe. What I am saying is that it is clear those that survive have better flying skills and are probably able toreact better tothe flaws of new technology. What I am saying is that technology should never erase the need for sound basics. As a matter of fact new technologies mean a higher level of basic skills in any endeavour not less. What I am saying is that third world countires should go easy on the rush to upgrade or import new technologies when it is clear they have inadequate basic knowledge and competencies on how to troubleshoot when it comes to death and life matters.

You will never be ahead of a Californian geek when the next Iphone comes. If it gets bad he will likely be able to recover faster than you. If your life depended on the phone you are better of mastering an older model. If you investigate most pilot error led crashes the bulk of them were caused by lack of situational awarenes. The pilots were just not able to grasp what the aircraft was doing and in some cases even worsened the situation by wrong remedial actions. Technology can never compensate for that. Technology gone wrong is irrecoverable in those cases.

No one is absolving Boeing here. The Max 8 obviously has problems and they have not done enough to remediate the situation. But what else is out there that is potentially catastrophic. Prepare for that. Only the living can blame.
