Officials found that a failure of oversight from the FAA, along with corporate pressure, lack of transparency and design failures from Boeing, all led to the fatal plane crash that killed hundreds.

Well I’m never flying in a max that’s for sure
TO THE USMARINE, THROW UR MARINE TO THE CORD. MCAS WAS GETTING AND FEEDING INFO TO A.O.A. ONE ON EACH SIDE. ENGINES ARE TOO BIG AND NOT ALIGNED. MY FAMILY WILL NEVER FLY BOEING.. OH HEY, 737 IS A 727 BUILT IN 1968???? OLD PLANE REPAINTED…
5:31 X to doubt
I love Boeing but Airbus you win
I fly often, domestically and internationally, but if I knew, even at the gate, that I was going to board a 737 max I'd walk, even if it meant forfeiting my ticket.
Skynet
APRIL 1988: The first Airbus A320 comes into service.
OCTOBER 1988: The first Boeing 737-400 comes into service.
JANUARY 1989: Brand new Boeing 737-400 crashes in Kegworth, UK… pilots were unaware of a system redesign.
30 YEARS LATER: Airbus build A320neo and Boeing build 737 MAX and this time two Boeing crashes.
737 MAX. This is our newest and best plane!…. (several MAX airplanes divebomb themselves to the ground killing everyone on board). Ooops, sorry, our mistake, we will fix that and it will become the safest plane ever!!
Here is an insider report on the Boeing 737 Max dis.aster.
The full technical details, not covered in any other report.

safty for boeings income is their highest priority
boeing – "we gonna get this plane in the air again this summer"
COVID-19 – "nope"
So Boeing put the engines too far forwards to avoid raising the wings. So the plane pitches up when you increase the throttle. So MCAS pitches the plane forward to keep the plane from stalling. So no one told the pilots that their plane couldn't go up and their systems were going to drive them into the ground…. So, lets try another software fix… Maybe the new software should keep the plane on the ground where it's perfectly safe rather than let it fly where it's inherently not safe.
How about Boeing fixing the plane and not the software.
I just rode on one recently. Well, Coronavirus grounded them all for sure now
Face it Boeing Mngmt. YOU SCREWED UP ROYALLY AND NOW YOU WILL PAY THE PRICE. YOU DONT KEEP THINGS LIKE MCAS A SECRET FROM PILOTS SO YOU CAN SAVE A BUCK. SHAME ON YOU. YOU SHOULD ALL BE GIVEN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR FOR YOUR SINS.
Disgusting. Boeing better pay. Shut the company down.
If the pilots on the two aircraft which crashed even knew the aircraft had an MCAS system, they could have disabled it very easily simply by selecting Flap One setting.
Instead the conversion onto the MAX was just a two hour iPad exercise.
This is the most obvious case of Corporate Manslaughter ever. Trump is very quick to withdraw funding from the WHO, but he needs to disband the FAA. They have failed in their duty and responsibility to the flying public.
We’re human beings not bean counter numbers. Profit should never come before life. When one cuts corners to make anything there will always be a negative outcome. In this case a horrific one. I send prayers to those families that lost love ones.ðŸ™Â
It blows my mind how criminals those Boeing's executives are. People's lives are in their hands. Unbeleivable.
How about the ceo flys on its first few flights
No, the pilots didn't turn 'that automated system' back on, Boeing failed to inform them that an 'automated system' that could over-ride the controls even existed !
The FAA had the authority to prevent a flawed design being leashed on the flying public but they felt that they couldn't use it because they felt they had to defer to economic pressure. Boeing, for its part, behaved like an unruly bullyn who paid scant regard to the warnings of its own engineers and pilots.
If its boeing i m not going!
"Safety is and has always been its highest priority"… Right, thats why they never even informed the pilots who live and breathe these updated 737s about new software added to counter poor handling characteristics from multiple updates to old crap.
Search for 737Max updates. 12 months ago Boeing was "weeks" away from software to unground the fleet LOL Much bigger problems than a few lines of code. Imagine being a company that bankrolled an order of MAXs…
Why didn't they just make the wheels higher to put the bigger engine
