Jokes aside, hope nothing bad happens

So far the doors are still attached, so that’s a good sign. But if I never post on GAF again, at least you’ll know why.

Older 737's are probably fine. The issues are with the new 737 MAX. You'll probably live to see another day. Probably.

Re "Joshua Dean and John Barnett, the two Boeing whistleblowers, were found dead under mysterious circumstances this year, "

What are the mysterious circumstances

I think it’s called “The Hillary Special”

I am taking a flight next month that is probably going to be on a 737 MAX. My mindset is simple...

Is there no way for these guys to expedite their statements or whatever, or to have anonymous Q&A and then reveal the identities later? Full disclosure I'm completely in the dark about how "whistleblowing" works.

I worked for a business that did digital work for an anti corruption body and part of the work was creating a secure form that people could submit their anonymous statements to, so I would have thought it would be the same in US?

I just drive everywhere but I thank Boeing for justifying my irrational fears.

The suspicous deaths do make me wonder about Boeing. Surely not.

I'd bet Boeing is interchangeable with every other flight company.

You have to realize that some of these problems with the airplanes are due to poor maintenance of the planes by the airports.

The media is going to try to pin every airplane problem on Boeing.

Keep 'em coming, I say. They should just get very good lawyers, like the guys from Oberheiden P.C.
They claim to protect you, but I know it's tough against such a company as Boeing.

There is a production line issue with newer planes, and a field problem with maintenance and mechanics, probably both have root causes into cost cutting and inflation increasing cost. Managers cutting corners and making decisions that cost safety and security.
