I've worked at a company very similar to Boeing. Engineers are an opinionated bunch. Pilots too. There's nothing unusual about comments like these. Their mistake was putting them in writing.

They'll be crucified for writing down what many at both Boeing and the FAA already know.

Certain posters like to decry the veracity of any media source presented to them, yet never ever ever share what media sources they deem trustworthy, despite being repeatedly and directly asked.

Its remarkable how the Left is cultivating this piling-on against Boeing. It's unfortunate that layman critics of all things American can maintain a hold on what's become political.

The plane's remedy is at hand, yet there is a subsurface effort by some to never relent.

I make no bones about the fact that I regularly source the BBC, WSJ, Economist, Reuters, and more academic articles from Foreign Affairs. Let's hear WK's trusted "sources" since she is always haranguing others for citing to certain publications yet doggedly refuses to identify with specificity any publications that she deems trustworthy.

One could go through the emails of any company or organization and find similar comments from disgruntled employees, losers who did not get the promotion they did not deserve, whiners who resist corporate change, and slackers. Unless there is proof, it is best to assume that this is all we are looking at here.
