Weeks?

. so why weren't they done at that point? I don't trust these guys far as I could throw them. They let people die because they didn't want to miss revenues.

They need to make the safety features mandatory on all base models of the 737 Max. The price should never be human lives in exchange for profit and safety.

Get the checks ready for the victims family. No more excuses. Boeing kills .

And do you think we are zipped up the back no way are we going on them end off scrap the bastards

Will be years before I allow myself on one of these.

Mindwbw Curious to see how few would actually want to fly in a max8. Airlines will be forced to maybe cancel orders.

It only took almost 400 deaths before YOU sir decided the software needed fixing and will give it for free. Very humanitarian of you! Place in hell awaits!

Thats nice. As if they were going to come out and say 'this product we spent billions developing is absolute crap' anyway.
