Why does the article close with a rag on the 737 MAX?, it has nothing to do with the affected parts. Why not say also that numerous 737-800s have crashed throughout history, which is the model affected by the parts. I'd almost say somebody with 'lounge' access has written this piece and just decided to throw some extra spice at the end.... It's almost like the are saying Virgin operates dodgy 737-800s with bad parts, but they also operate dodgy MAXs, don't fly with them.
The tidbit at the end would only make sense if it was illegal parts that caused the accidents.
