I agree about the general concerns and risk of escalation.
Meanwhile this forum should ‘cut the design engineers some slack’. These are people doing their normal day job, doing their best given the circumstances at the time.
We, alternatively, with enormous hindsight after two accidents and many months of ‘wisdom from the crowds’ might identify aspects which should previously have been considered.
This, for everyone is ‘the human condition’; beware of our biases.
Some posts have referred to a management ‘Go, go, go’ mentality in developing a new variant; imagine what mentalities might exist after the entire fleet has been grounded.
Consider our posts carefully so as not to add further pressure on these people in the design and test front line, either as unjustified speculative comment, ‘fuel’ for tabloid media, or inaccuracies to be used by those in government.
