Mid-July launch of first crewed vehicle now delayed indefinitely for understrength parachuted risers and using
a flammable tape in the cabin to wrap wire harnesses! Apollo 1 all over again! This is worse than not knowing that Florida is humid in summer, which caused their second demo flight valve problems. I don't know who is more incompetent Boeing for doing it or NASA for not finding the issues until the third flight.
Time to kick this pig to the curb and hope Sierra's space plane works.
