what the fuck else have they missed?

If it's Boeing, I'm not going.

Even with the recent 737 max issues, it still remains safer to fly a Boeing than to drive wherever it is you're going. Unless you live in Japan, China, or certain parts of Europe and Asia with safe high speed rail, you're better off going with Boeing than almost anything else.

Yeah, but you can generally survive a car crash nowadays. Not on a Boeing plane deciding to commit sudoku and LARP as a IJN dive bomber.

Statistics can prove anything. 99% percent of everyone knows that. Be that as it may, I will walk before traveling on Starliner.
