I feel uncomfortable as a taxpayer having inadvertently supported Boeing and they are literally falling apart.

You think Airbus is gonna expand its capacity to build even more planes?

This is (probably) not Boeings fault, it’s just that karma is striking back at them lol

Does this mean the landing gear wheel closest to the nose fell off?

Oh okay. Yeah I just listened to the audio recording. I guess yes that's what that means.

Seriously, they just can't catch a break. Can they?

Planes don't have breaks, silly. They fly. What are they going to do with breaks?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Planes have brakes* so they, for example, don't bump the plane in front of them when moving through the line to take off.

I know this was a joke but it kinda feels flat
