If there is fraud here then I think it would be committed by Ryanair. There are essentially 2 transactions to consider here:

1. Boeing-Ryanair: both parties know this plane has been rebadged and have agreed to it. There is no deception.

2. Ryanair-customer: one party has rebadged a known faulty product, claiming it to be something else. There is deception on the part of Ryanair, the entity financially benefiting from the transaction.

Maybe consider that everything the 737 MAX 8 touches dies. Airlines, flyers, shareholders.

Boeing made this dumpster fire and now they should sleep in it. I'm with other posters here who will now avoid any 737. Lots of fish in the sea, lots of planes in the sky.

True enough. Both parties seem to know that they are trying to deceive passengers though. Both are at fault if you ask me.
