what exactly is the pitch here, they made a plane that occasionally goes HAL and insists on killing everyone, and their solution to that after years is to just ask for a fucking PASS?

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Every happy story starts: "After being exempted from safety standards..."
Sure, if anybody can be trusted with safety exemptions it's Boeing, right?
if its not Boeing, im not going.
Or whatever it is.
What's got the bad orange website so upset at Boeing I'm out of the loop, part of the reason I posted. Also just US military contractor having dumb plane issues + financialization
Maybe because the issues Boeing has had over the last few years with its 737 MAX MCAS system wrt Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines crashes being fresh on peoples minds.
The regular 737 MAX was grounded for like a year or something from 2019 to 2020 IIRC.
Or maybe theres something more recent that i just havent been paying attention to.
