Saturn V - read my posts carefully and also look at "Tech Log". I did not say that the FAA or NTSB called "ground 'em" I was referring to the "popular" opinion on this site (not necessarily on this particular thread).

However, I do stand by my amazement that the FAA did not order immediata grounding/inspection/rectification of B737 after rudder hardovers or MDs after the Alaskan accident.

The popular opinion from west of Shannon is that any Airbus is unsafe - this is boll*cks. They are no better no worse than Boeing (OK in my opinion they are in fact better!) but there is always a cry from the Boeing boys that any european built airliner crash requires immediate grounding and a Boeing accident is just bad luck.
