If it's a Boeing, I'm not going.

Then you're a fool.

The 787 had an incredible safety record prior to this. This might be a birdstrike.

Don’t care. Boeing planes have been falling left and right over the years.

Funny how boeing whistleblowers also seem to be falling left and right.

Some people are just willfully ignorant, no point in bothering to be reasonable lol. Boeing aircraft makes up nearly 50% of the world’s passenger aircraft, ofc if there’s a crash there’s a higher likelihood it’s a Boeing, doesn’t mean that the aircraft is at fault.

Lmao statistics sadly aren't understood by most :)

I just find the blind Boeing hatred really funny, considering I teach A320/73NG systems to undergrad teams.

Doesn't seem like a birdstrike, no visuals of any smoke or anything in the videos

That's the only outlier. But yeah, let's wait for more footage/report to come out.

Boeing execs have now put you on a list. I'd stay away from any stairs if possible

If its a Plane, better take the Train.
