Stark contrast between Boeing (US) never been guilty of anything vs Airbus (EU)

[y1n0]

Not so stark when you realize that both airbus and air france were acquitted years ago. And then the prosecutors appealed! I find that terrifying.

Terrifying that they were acquitted, or that double jeopardy is legal in France?

[readthenotes1]

They have, just not criminal penalties. No one will go to prison. The nearly $19 billion in losses to the value in Boeing is chump change ...

Boeing literally pleaded guilty to criminal fraud charges. https://apnews.com/article/boeing-guilty-plea-fraud-justice-...

Manslaughter for not having enough training during a specific malfunction, one crash

Vs

Fraud for two crashes caused by knowingly having unsafe planes (and two whistleblowers conveniently die)

Ah, off by one error.
