    What the hell is going on with planes?

    Cost cutting EVERYWHERE! Paying engineers less, letting workers go, overworking everyone. All for saving money and making shareholders happy! Thats why we will start getting more mishaps.

    "Dear God, my school sucks. Please give us some new play equipment in our school yard." Next day: "Wow, thank you God for the giant slide! We love it!"

    These greedy companies are cutting corners when it comes to maintenance to extend flying hours.
  • @pahanin2480
    That 33 year old plane should’ve retired 3 years ago with a full pension, but due to inflation and rising cost, it had to keep working
  • @Calusie6287
    Why are they not servicing these old aircrafts properly...why these incidents keep happening...
  • @seattlekarim964
    I'm always so impressed with the pilots. Thank you. Edit: And crew!!
  • @zeepack
    At least someone was saving money on maintenance. Those C level bonuses don't come cheap and someone has to pay them.
  • @dathula804
    They said traveling on the ground is not safer than flying, because of heavy sh*t falling off their planes.
  • @user-ym7qn3uo2m
    It's a Boeing. You don't need to say anything else. I am flying to Texas in June, and have selected flights NOT using Boeing planes.

  • @machokmacho6597

    I think I may want to take an extra 2-3 weeks and drive home next time I see my family. Yuk.
