This is why Airbus is superior

You know because they actually have real regulations and consequences for not following proper guidelines in the EU

Also because it was made up of former WW2 engineers at the forefront of innovation including Messerschmitt lol. Boeing made big chungus prop bombers, never any jet fighters or even prop fighters. ^/s^

Boeing got so caught up in their military contracts for the US war machine that they forgot that some planes aren't supposed to kill people.

What's the sound of the doors popping off mid-flight?

"Boeing!"

Too soon

No one was seriously injured or died. I don't see how it could be too soon.

It was a serious incident, but not a catastrophe. Joking about it seems fine.

I missed this news... What is being referenced?

I don't wanna be that guy but how the actual fuck did you miss this news? It's been talked about on repeat on literally every news avenue for the past week. Including every single social media platform including reddit and lemmy.

Wow, I feel like you worded this a bit aggressively and I'm not sure that was necessary. I hope life is treating you well, my friend.

Well, I could imagine that it's because I don't live in the US, and there's a different focus of topics here? I'm sure it's been mentioned on the news website I sometimes visit, but apparently on a day when I wasn't looking.

Maybe they're doing news better than us, because this was like the least important thing.

You think a plane door falling off mid flight and exposing major manufacturing oversights isn't an important topic? Interesting....

Now do cars

Car manufacturering issues is also very important. You can have two things that are important. What the actual fuck is your point here?

It's 420 somewhere, cool off.

Car doors fly off all the time and people actually die.

Sorry, I didn't realize that you're actually a legitimate fucking idiot. And there's just no getting through to someone like that. You're just doing the best you can. Good for you :-).

I could do better; I could smoke a bowl and meditate on why only rare things are newsworthy.

Do you smoke weed? Because you've mentioned smoking a bowl in your last several comments. So just curious if you blaze? You smoke bro?

It's not really a major manufacturing oversight. It takes just two dumb fucks to do this. It's why complacency kills in aircraft.

I haven't heard about this either. I don't watch TV, I am not on social media, and I have ad block.
