    At this point, going on a sail boat in a thunderstorm would be safer than flying... Probably.

    That makes zero sense. It's still the absolute safest mode of transportation and the odds of dying is like 1 in 10,000,000. The odds of even getting hurt is like 0.00001%

    No they don't. Who do you think was in the cockpit of that boeng 737? A retired Navy pilot . They drive like crazy Indians and put people in danger. They think their in a fighter jet when it's a civilian airliner with 100 people in it and 200 times the size of a fighter jet

    That 737 Max is not doing so well. Southwest only flys 737. Glad I don't fly anymore. I can't believe they got rid of all the MD-80 series. It was such superior machine to all these manned drones coming out of the factories today.

    Um these aircraft are also old as hell and they skimp on maintenance…just like any other big business, they hold onto machines as long as possible and only work on the when the mechanical end life of the part needing fixing is met, rather than have preventative maintenance by upgrading these parts before they fail.

    ​@OSM758 you are entirely wrong. The boeing 737 max 8 is one of the newest models airlines use today, with the first debuting in 2015. Old planes are actually reliable, these new planes are complete garbage.

    That's how you end up with an industry that doesn't report safety issues, clearly it was an accident likely caused by poor training.
