Seasons1992 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 As a weirdo, I follow commercial aviation news and accidents. Boeing really messed up on putting giant overweight engines on an airframe that was designed in the late 60's and never upgraded or thought about, for these new engines. The "fix" was software to angle the plane back down to keep airspeed and then not to really tell anyone about the "fix." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds similar to a kid years ago shoehorning a 429 V-8 into a Pinto, and then wrapping himself around a telephone pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
