New Netflix documentary on Boeing 737 Max

Featured Replies

Anyone see the new Netflix documentary on the Boeing 737 Max yet? The title is called, "DOWNFALL: The Case Against Boeing."  Here is the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt-IJkUbAxY.

It was an interesting documentary, even featuring Captain Sully Sullenberger multiple times and his remarks about the 737 Max.  Probably the most memorable line in the documentary was the interview with Captain Dan Carey, from the Allied Pilot Association, an pilot's union.  When the 737 Max was grounded in the US, they still had to fly many of the grounded 737 Max to storage facilities.  About the storage facilities, Captain Dan Carey said pilots were telling him, "they don't want to fly them there."

PS. After the fixes to the 737 Max and the greenlight to allow it to fly again, I think the 737 Max is a safe plane and I would sit as a passenger on one without a second thought.

I did watch it, two days ago. Somehow this reminded me of some practices I'm seeing in some companies, even if the final effect won't be deadly at all. That's what marked me the most.
