  1. “Oh, you wanted the planes that DON’T crash? That’s gonna cost extra.” One of the major questions raised concerning Boeing’s 737 Max 8 is whether the MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System) hardware installed on the plane to help prevent aircraft stalls could have malfunctioned and contributed to the loss of both Lion Air 610 last year and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 more recently. While that investigation is ongoing, new information indicates that Boeing sells upgrades to critical flight systems that might have improved their overall safety — but it sells them as value-added profit centers in much the same way you might add a stereo option to a car. https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/288099-downed-787-max-8s-lacked-safety-features-boeing-only-sells-as-extras

  7. Max, I'm shorting my BA stock. "Flawed analysis, failed oversight: How Boeing, FAA certified the suspect 737 MAX flight control system" https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/failed-certification-faa-missed-safety-issues-in-the-737-max-system-implicated-in-the-lion-air-crash/ Also, from the Wall Street Journal: Prosecutors, Transportation Department Scrutinize Development of Boeing’s 737 MAX Federal prosecutors and Department of Transportation officials are scrutinizing the development of Boeing Co.’s BA 1.52% 737 MAX jetliners, according to people familiar with the matter, unusual inquiries that come amid probes of regulators’ safety approvals of the new plane. A grand jury in Washington, D.C., issued a broad subpoena dated March 11 to at least one person involved in the 737 MAX’s development, seeking related documents, including correspondence, emails and other messages, one of these people said. The subpoena, with a prosecutor from the Justice Department’s criminal division listed as a contact, sought documents to be handed over later this month.
  8. Mrmassage & Victor have same travel dates in San Jose 15-19MARCH, different phone numbers. Cannot figure out the plot yet.
  9. Be wary. Be very wary.
  10. Anyone else with comments?
  11. I FaceTimed with him, those are not his pictures. Young and fairly attractive Brazilian, no idea what the body looks like. 300/hr for an unknown, I will pass.
  12. Buy good companies on bad news?

  14. Hey Max, here's a stock tip for ya: ORLANDO, Fla. — Boeing’s deliveries of its KC-46 tanker to the U.S. Air Force have been suspended as the service investigates a series of problems with foreign object debris, its top acquisition official confirmed Friday. Will Roper, the service’s assistant secretary for acquisition, technology and logistics, told reporters that it will likely be “some time” before the service begins accepting new tankers from Boeing. https://www.defensenews.com/digital-show-dailies/air-warfare-symposium/2019/03/01/air-force-suspends-kc-46-tanker-deliveries/
  15. Latvian guy who's pics are 3-5 years dated, has scruff. Smokers breath, he's nice enough but not sure I'd repeat.
  16. Buy Max, buy!
  17. https://rentmen.eu/JulianB No reviews or mentions, anyone?
  18. I back up poor communication, good luck hearing back from a text or voicemail.
  19. And your name is... Max? Like 737 MAX 8? BTW, let the cover-up begin! Half a dozen witnesses interviewed by Reuters in the farmland where the plane came down reported smoke billowing out behind, while four of them also described a loud sound. “It was a loud rattling sound. Like straining and shaking metal,” said Turn Buzuna, a 26-year-old housewife and farmer who lives about 300 meters (328 yards) from the crash site. “Everyone says they have never heard that kind of sound from a plane and they are under a flight path,” she added. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ethiopia-airplane-witnesses/ethiopian-plane-smoked-and-shuddered-before-deadly-plunge-idUSKBN1QS1LJ
  20. And crickets from Cwill.
  21. This country seems to require quite a few bodies before it will compel changes at corporate levels. Probably because of lobbyists our 787 MAX 8's aren't grounded. Apparently 340 dead in 6 months isn't enough.
  22. Now in Santa Barbara: https://rentmen.eu/Liamboy
  23. They grounded all DC-10s for less than this. But that was back when competent people were running things.
