And all this talk of shoddy parts?
Greatly overblown.

Now, if we want to talk about 'shoddy' parts, let us look at the poor quality pitot probes that were fitted to many Airbus types...you remember the ones, manufactured by Thales.
Replaced with properly functioning USA manufactured probes.

Going further, please cite one accident to Boeing 737NG aircraft that has occured, as a direct result of these so-called 'shoddy' Boeing parts.
Whereas, let us remember the AirFrance A330 that rests at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, the one with the faulty Thales pitot probes....with all aboard quite dead.
I will repeat, you folks in Euroland will believe any sort of tall tale, it appears.
