We went from "minimize risk at all costs" (WTF are life jackets doing on planes nowadays? Airbus could synchronize sticks with the saved weight and save more lives that jackets ever will) to "manage risk" aka put money first. Still, it remains amazingly safer than anything else, but crashes create so much drama on TV (and indeed in some peoples' lives) that one accident per year will still be too much. I would probably sit in a 737MAX when it's allowed back in the air although not being perfectly stable in all conditions. Risk management
Lifejackets ? Cactus 1549 ?
