two planes had to fail due to MCAS before it failed. Now, we've seen a blowout, which never happens, from planes that were also recently designed and produced by Boeing. That's a pattern of poor performance which is ocuring recently. It used to be "if it's not Boeing, I'm not going", which they achieved by being very good at what they do.

Comparing Boeing's performance to other the performance of other industries is also apples to oranges, no? Why not compare Boeing to Airbus? I don't understand what you mean by that argument.

So, what design failures has Airbus suffered as of late? And what's your explanation for the specific hate on Boeing, if it's comparable to airbus?
