Sorry, but this one's clickbait to ride on the news cycle for views.

UAL433 on 3/15/2024 was flown by N26226, which was issued its original airworthiness certificate on December 23, 1998. The plane is 25 years old.

This one's all on United's maintenance department. Being that old it should have had a recent D check (every 9-12 years, depending on flight hours), where any major issues should have been uncovered. It also should have had a C check even more recently.

Bottom line is United's maintenance department obviously missed something.

AAL345 (mentioned in the article) was N754AN, certified on June 20, 2001. A 23 year old aircraft. The "mechanical issue" was, according to reports (no word from American), a blown tire. So once again, that's on maintenance or just a shitty tire.

The United Sydney-> San Francisco flight with the hydraulic leak was N2140U, certified on June 14, 2017. An almost 7 year old aircraft which would have had a recent C check. So again, that's on maintenance, as they would have had all manner of things disconnected and reconnected as part of the process.

The United flight from San Francisco to Osaka a couple of weeks ago (the one that lost the wheel) was N226UA, certified on April 1, 2013. An almost 11 year old plane, so it would have had a recent C check and probably a D check as well. Wheels would have definitely been taken on or off. So once again, that's on United.

All of these incidents were on aircraft that had been in service for a while. So it's easy to lump them in with the MAX-9 incident Alaska had (which there's zero excuse for), and say it's indicative of some widespread issue with Boeing, but these other aircraft were built before all the woke nonsense got in full swing and had been doing their jobs without incident. Until United's monkeys got their paws on them.

The real story that nobody is talking about is how is United's own diversity push across the company affecting maintenance and therefore safety? Because it seems like they have a major issue of their own that needs to be addressed. Which is one of the many reasons I absolutely refuse to fly United.

This is nothing. Wait until sisters of the air.

But hey, on the plus side, at least Boeing's ESG score is right up there! Right?

Oh. Never mind.

So what is the Boeing stuff distracting from? I'm sure shit like this happens all the time but now we hear about it nonstop? Nothing in the news cycle is organic the tik tok stuff proves that it's jews behind that of course what is up with boeing?
