It should not about jobs, it should be about safety.
The government did not bail out the Corvair, the Pinto, the Firestone 500's, the Van, or countless others that were taken off the market due to safety issues. Can you provide an government subsidy or bailout for an unsafe product?
Boeing could fix the MAX, if it wanted to. At this point, wiring this together, trying this, adding that...well. You leave the Swiss Cheese holes to line up, based on the platform. Engines too big for the platform, moved forward and up....lack of redundancy in FMS and sensors..and of course, a lack of knowledge to the pilots and training as such.
From all of the articles, and information, so far...Boeing is culpable is all regards. To feign ignorance and viel an apology (when the facts are being exposed)?
ie, no further sim training necessary. How did that work out so far?
Add pilot minimum training requirements, Are they kidding? .What would these be, and how much of your market would you lose if you placed the US requirements worldwide?
Face it. Fix it, or dump it. Software bandages are not a fix. We keep talking about hand flying an ac.
This is the first commercial ac I have seen, to be designed, and sent to market, where you cannot hand fly it.
