Horrific Sub-Tabloid quality article in the Financial Times.

Reads like an advert for Boeing but confuses fly by wire and autopilot and computerised flight assistance systems and says in essence "nothing to see here - pay your money, have a stiff drink and get on that 737 Max 8 it won't kill you".

it takes a brave or calmly logical person to climb on board. But that is how passengers should treat the Boeing 737 Max 8.
