That is really bad misinformation statistically speaking. The "Max" aircraft (all variants) have literally many millions of miles of safe flight. If anything, it is the most scrutinized commercial aircraft in all of history.
I'm not going to comment on how it compares to other planes but it's certainly significantly less safe than the previous generations of 737:
> a fatal accident rate of four accidents per million flights, whereas the previous Boeing 737 generations averaged 0.2 fatal accidents per million flights
The Max line is clearly cursed, and I think it's reasonable to be suspicious of all of the variants in it. That they've taken the newly discovered problematic ones out of service doesn't imply that the ones left in service are good -- particularly since it seems that the problems stem from systemic quality control issues rather than something special about those particular variants.
Have they though? Boeing is the least trustworthy company on planet earth these days. The airlines aren't far behind. The regulators don't seem competent.
I say this as a capitalist - Boeing should be torn apart and sold for scrap metal.I'm sure there are some decent folks there, but that place has turned into a mess.
Yes, I absolutely agree with you. It is WAY worse than it has ever been. What you described is exactly what I have been plagued with... (I never thought I was messing up, because it was such a DRASTICALLY different experience)
Haha! Gotta LOVE this forum: Ok, after reading 242 comments, I have summarized them for you:
Your Boss is Good -> Your Boss is bad
You should keep your head down -> You should keep your head Up
You should quit -> You should NOT quit
This is really good advice -> this is really BAD advice
Go to HR and record this -> DON'T go to HR because [bad]
Tell your boss FU and leave -> Be humble and learn from this
Your boss will Never EVER get better -> Your boss just had a bad day, etc.
---> more entries to be filled by more good/bad responses (equal amounts)
The ultimate take here OP, is that you get here the same you will get inside your own company, that being a S/N ratio of ZERO. Go with your heart. (oh, I just HAD to add that, lol)
