QUESTION ABOUT #BOEING
are all the malfunctioning airplanes only used for domestic flights? were all the malfunctioning planes deployed only for use inside of USA?

was wondering if, since other countries have their own plane inspection programs, why would other countries not catch any of the problems with those planes? and i reckoned that maybe it's because Boeing was selling those faulty planes to USA airlines only for domestic flights; by-passing inspections from other countries.

@blogdiva I think that the biggest problem is that there was this collection of parts that were determined faulty at manufacture inspection, that were then warehoused and slowly introduced into their entire fleet so it's the entire fleet

@voxofgod @blogdiva Yep. Exactly this.

"MRSA parts are prominently emblazoned with red marks denoting them as defective and unsafe. For a plane to escape Boeing's production line and find its way to a civilian airport near you with these defective parts installed, many people will have to see and ignore this literal red flag.

The MRSA cage was a special concern of John "Swampy" Barnett, the Boeing whistleblower who is alleged to have killed himself in March."

@blogdiva there were a bunch of fatal crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia on those planes first, and then Boeing tried to say it was because third world countries don’t have good pilots
