>Boeing should not be selling a plane into a market that don't cover markets natural variant in pilots and airlines. That's like selling a car only F1 drivers can safely drive to the general public ( and crucially without telling them it's really F1 driver only... )

This reminds me of that fatal crash with "Fast and Furious" star Paul Walker: the Porsche he was driving really wasn't fit for the road, and was only safely driveable by a race car driver. It was too powerful and the center of mass was too far to the rear (thanks to Porsche's idiotic rear engine placement), giving it a strong tendency to fishtail and lose control.
