No, but considering they are the 2nd biggest western plane maker and the only one is US... yeah you will see them hang around, at most they will get slapped on the waist by the US gov and patched up using tax payer money But they should get rid off someone higher up before the gov will come bail them out... possibly the COO or the CEO for this 737MAX mess...

Don’t worry President Trump will just give them a small loan of 1 billion dollars...

Jump on the roast train, consider they are lucky since US government won’t let them bankrupt like... oh say McDonnell_Douglas... Does DC-10 ring any bells? Bottom line: didn’t plan ahead/bad judgement calls leads to rushing development leads to corner cutting leads to crash/failed products... It not only relevant in aviation industry, but also auto, electronics, even online services... And a word to management: please listen to engineers...

787-10 is just a bit smaller and less capable than the 777-8... maybe that is why.

Funny enough 737NG also had accidents related to flight control software only using captain’s instruments... like the one crashed into sea when the system was Fede with faulty ground approximation radar...

You see under time and budget pressure, those managers start to pretend they know better than the engineers, happened to NASA twice...with the two space shuttle crash...needless to say Boeing was under tremendous pressure to roll out the 737 MAXs ASAP, especially when Airbus is eating them alive with the A320neo and A350 as knife and fork...

Seems Reuters have no new “Soemthing is wrong with Boeing” things to report... so they posted this old “news” to stay relevant...

I blame Trump propaganda for it...

737 is dead, just like the DC-10, it’s reputation won’t improve no matter what Boeing does, even if there will be 0 crashes involving 737 MAX from now on...
