Boeing said it has discovered a manufacturing issue with some 737 Max aircraft, although it insisted the problem is not 'an immediate safety of flight issue.'

Boeing said it has discovered a manufacturing issue with some 737 Max aircraft, although it insisted the problem is not “an immediate safety of flight issue.” A supplier used a “non-standard manufacturing process” during the installation of two fittings in the rear fuselage, Boeing said in a statement to CNN. The company said Max jets can continue flying while inspections are underway and the Federal Aviation Administration said it “validated” that conclusion.

” Southwest Airlines\n \n said it would work with Boeing on “any needed inspections or part replacements.” Boeing\n \n has reported only two profitable quarters in the nearly four years since the grounding of the 737 Max. After two fatal crashes that killed 346 people, the jet was grounded for 20 months starting in March 2019.

Ah yes, Boeing. They were approved by Barack Obama their largest in history aircraft mfrg contract - just before Trump won. It was awarded to Boeing's Dubai HQ who reported in delight, it infused 1000's of local UAE jobs to unskilled workers. This is BarackObama Barac's legacy.

Oh no!

This 737 Max model can't catch a break.

Uhhh hell to the no. Those things crashed before. Ground then again until they’re fixed.

No trust here. This plane has aready killed to many people.

Who on earth would trust Boeing at this point to judge if they are safe to fly?

The manufacturing problem is that it is being manufactured at all.

Anyone here trust that Boeing is telling the truth?

HA! No thanks. I'll wait until there are no issues whatsoever.

Never flying on these

This kind of thing is pretty common in aviation. It being the 737 Max makes it look 1000 times worse than it really is.

They lost any credibility when they let it fly and crashed several planes.

Probably time to retire this aircraft
