Should these alleged substandard parts result in serious loss of life Boeing will be reduced to the level of a minor manufacturer. How can that Corporation be so naive? Can they not see that china has its own burgeoning aviation industry which would love to claim predominance from Boeing?
As John Keats once said in the opening line of his poem - 'To one who has been long in city pent', etc., This airline fits the bill with this service. The poem should be posted on the back of each seat on their aircraft.
I do believe that flap failure from this cause will prove to be a serious factor in the demise of those emerging manufacturers in China Japan and Russia who are trying to challenge the global dominance of Boeing and Airbus. If they are having difficulty in this regard those others most certainly will.
