Some tech advances have. The trouble is some don't know when to stop with them. Like Trump said, pretty soon you won't need pilots but rather tech grads, but they won't have a clue what to do when something goes south on them because they are trained to rely on the safety systems. I'm all for safety but it doesn't do an incompetent pilot any good when safety devices fail them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may need this tech to handle the traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcticCrusher Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 So Canada decides to ground these planes for safety concerns after stating the opposite yesterday. Basically the airlines said fuck Garneau and grounded them regardless stating crew and passenger safety first. Fucking moron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your country closed its airspace to the 737 Max 8, your post sounds Momo like Hey @f7ben could Crusher be the Son of @Momorider ? Quote Canada closes airspace to Boeing 737 Max 8 Canada's transport minister says the country is closing air space to the Boeing 737 Max 8 jet following the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines jetliner that killed 157 people. Canada becomes the latest country to bar the Boeing 737 Max as the investigation into the latest crash, the second in just over five months, is underway. Transport Minister Marc Garneau said new information they received Wednesday morning in the form of satellite data shows a possible but unproven similarity to a previous Max 8 crash. Boeing has said it has no reason to pull the popular aircraft from the skies and does not intend to issue new recommendations about the aircraft to customers. Given the proximity to the U.S Canada's decision to ground the planes may cause problems for U.S. airlines. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/canada-closes-airspace-to-boeing-737-max-8/ar-BBUHXFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CEO of Ethiopian airlines made an irrefutable statement yesterday during an on air interview. That changed everything. This was definitely a flight control issue.

Given the similarity between the two crashes, I’m blown away that the FAA hasn’t grounded the planes. That seems very odd to me. It sounds like you have a political ax to grind.... which is fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once it started to climb after the announcement I bought some. Like you said it will always be a good long term buy. Hopefully this gets figured out soon and will be back up 10-15% within a matter of days or weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea the actuator was a freak and had not the female pilot who landed one that had malfunctioned they might never have figured it out. I read somewhere that at one point 60% of planes in the sky on any given day were 737s. It has been a very reliable plane over the years but now I fear the original engines from the 60s and open landing gear have come back to haunt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Danger Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 So from what I gather the new engines which are larger in diameter than the previous CFM56 which barely fit under the wing where the JT8 once was. To over come the height problem for the CFM56 they moved the engine higher on the wing and added a flat to the bottom of the engine inlet. The Max had to move the engine forward and up as well as make new landing gear that still fit in the same well but but extended when deployed to give clearance for the new engine. The engine moving forward on the wing changes the line of thrust in a bad way and has been compensated for through mostly trim. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
