Boeing Company (BA)

Of COURSE it does. 100% of the incidents mentioned here on this board since the Door Plug problem on that Alaska Air aircraft can be attributed to parts, pilot or maintenance failures that have ZERO to DO with Boeing itself!

The plain fact of the matter is that for some reason, people LOVE to blame the aircraft manufacturer when there is an incident. When in ACTUALITY? The fact is that it is usually NOT the case.

MOST of the incidents (except for that door plug issue) that have been highlighted here have happened on aircraft that have been in service for YEARS. And they have been directly attributed to bad piloting, bad maintenance or bad parts.

Boeing should not be held responsible for the way some pilots mishandle the aircraft, the way maintenance procedures are sometimes not followed, or for the failure of "on condition" parts.

But it certainly seems as if that is the case.
