Plane was built in 2001. Sounds like a lack of maintenance or a freak accident, not a Boeing build failure.

Oh hey another one. All I need now is wing falls off at cruising altitude and I’ll have a bingo

[–] podperson@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Well the wing’s not supposed to fall off. Maybe it was flying outside the environment?

Are Boeing fuck ups becoming more common or is it just more publicised now?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

Hard to say, every time there's a plane disaster in the news it's a boeing, but the range of planes is pretty big. So, it can't be just recent issues.

They don't make the engines.
