Boeing plane down again. I’m looking for sources on how many of which manufacturer has gone down recently, will update when i find it.
Edit
It’s such a new model that i can’t find it in the database on airsafe
According to IATA interactive safety report 2024, there hasn’t been a fatal accident that involved a 787-8 Dreamliner up until 2024-12-31. Can’t find any collected data for 2025.
There is a lot of insane gore about this on the internet, people taking pictures of severed heads and stuff, don’t look it up for your sanity. The plane fell on a med school dormitory, killed a whole bunch of students in addition to those on board.
Some people say that the RAT (an emergency device to power the plane in case of double engine failure) can be heard after takeoff, while the engines were silent. There is a lot of people claiming the flaps were not correctly extended, but there is no way to know that properly from the published videos, and the takeoff flap config of this plane is not that discernible from a distance from the flaps up config anyway.
The plane was 13 years old, so it’s not likely that it’s Boeing to blame for this.
It’s too early to say anything and to speculate.
I like your well reasoned and controlled response, its a light in darkness
Having said that, I do feel that we’re at a point where we can start with assuming that Boeing did something bad because Boeing always does something bad. Yes, that is a bad way to think and I hate that I do, but here we are
Oh, yeah, totally. Fuck Boeing. That this is likely not Boeing’s fault does not mean that they are not rotten nevertheless.
