Boeing Opens Paris Air Show With 737 MAX Apology
Boeing have opened the first day of the Paris Air Show by apologizing for the two crashes involving their 737 MAX aircraft. As Airbus celebrate the launch of their latest model, the A321XLR, the mood in the Boeing camp is far more somber as they reflect on the 737 MAX disasters and how that will affect them going forward. While plane makers usually use the global stage of the Paris Air Show to demonstrate their newest and best technology, Boeing are using it for something else. Still reeling… (simpleflying.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
And did they apologize to the families of the victims?
The same way Airbus apologized for Air France Flight 447 and it’s faulty frozen pitot tubes?
Sorta but not what I'd fully accept.
-Greg Smith, Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Enterprise Performance and Strategy, saying,
“The tragedy of Lion Air and Ethiopian accidents certainly weighs on all of us and words simply cannot express the sorrow and the sympathy that we feel for the families and the loved ones of those that were lost in these tragic accidents. These accidents have only intensified our efforts to ensure the highest level of safety and quality in everything we do.”

What if the aircraft is 40 degrees nose up and approaching the stall, both engines at full power and you push forward with your tiny elevator. Then what, that's my question
That’s why MCAS is necessary. I was merely referring to the emergency procedures that every pilot should memorize to avoid another completely unnecessary loss of life.
Could it be this aircraft is so badly designed that a computer operated system is required to bring the nose down approaching a stall, and in his stall recovery the pilot applies full power the nose of the aircraft will come up making the situation critical ?
“IF” those scenarios ever happen, then the pilots will be to blame because, like Captain Joe likes to say “a good pilot is always learning”
