Yes I believe the current story is "the match made in heaven, Boeing and united, resulted in shit maintenance of a weakly QCed product. Thus, united was running a poor QC program on top of a profitmaxxed airframe. The bill is coming due on all that fuckery".

Wasn't this a Southwest aircraft?

Wasn't this a Southwest aircraft?

Wow the title on this one is bad. This plane was not a 787, it was a 737.

My initial reply was going to be “Southwest only flies 737s, so this 787 isn’t one of theirs” but then I decided to check, just in case.

So yes, this was a Southwest 737.

But most incidents lately have been that glorious combination of United and Boeing.
