I never read any of your listed biased, trash rags. I just responded to Warren Craycroft's opinion. Don't put words in my mouth.

Amen to that brother...

I second Mr. Craycroft's input... I have some of the same software development background, and V&V. In my opinion, if Boeing was still run by engineers instead of MBAs, this high number of aircraft-loss-level software errors would never have made it into the air. If the "new Boinnggg" spent any money on software DERs, I hope those folks enjoy their new careers, whatever they will be....

A really sad story. Ultimately, Boeing's problems started way back when the board of Directors decided that competing with Airbus meant changing the company legacy from one run by engineers to one run by MBAs. I've talked with multiple airline pilots who have been around long enough to know the characteristics and construction of both the Boeing legacy aircraft and the Airbus aircraft, and they all say that Airbus is basically a throw-away aircraft before the first D-Check. Too bad BAC didn't figure out how to run commercials that pointed that out.

As long as Boeing is run by MBAs instead of engineers, those problems will continue.

D.A. Deterly has it pegged pretty well. The 1011 was be far a better airplane, just too late to market. DC-10 engineering for things like redundancy, avoiding single -point failures, thrust asymmetry, etc. really sucked. Those things are the real cause behind the accidents -- not some A&P mechanic that didn't follow a checklist exactly. THAT's par of why good safety engineering was intended to allow for stuff like that.

Emotional Support Animals??? REALLY?? If you can't just board, sit, fly, and get off, then take a train. And if the dog BITES a flight attendant, then kill the dog and have it tested for rabies. snowflakes....
