Nightmare at 20 Feet (3/14/24)

Friday is the Ides of March, that infamous date of Julius Caesar’s assassination. Soon after is the spring equinox, easter, and a major solar eclipse. These are important events, holding historical memories, and magnetically attracting the same. When John Barnett, a thirty year veteran of Boeing, and whistleblower against the company, turned up dead from apparent suicide, the floodgates opened. The sucicide note on the seat of his vehicle is now not being released by police. In a separate case, Boeing has overwritten video evidence, and lost the documentation, of the employees who worked on the door that blew off an Alaskan flight in January. When the NTSB found the party, they were designated as medically unfit to give testimony by their legal team. This comes just three years after the company was charged $2.5-billion in fines for defrauding the FAA. But is it all Boeing’s fault? We see stories of mechanical issues turning planes around, wheels falling off, bolts missing, doors blowing out, fires trailing engines, and speed tape being applied to wings, and think this is abnormal when it may not be; though that doesn’t mean it is right or that the planes are safe. The point is, this happens often enough that if we weren’t concerned before, why now? Furthermore, social media sleuths are examining planes for faults with zero engineering knowledge, therefore finding problems that may not be problems at all. As the scrutiny and fear over Boeing, and flying in general, intensifies, proponents of de-industrialization are able to argue that since flying is just so unsafe we should halt air traffic entirely.
