I am surprised so many people are still flying. This is it for me, I stay on the ground, and thankfully I am in an area with very few planes flying over

I sometimes have to fly. Next time I'm making sure the flight I'm on isn't using Boeing plane.

Hire based on ability, and thrive. Hire based on superficial physical characteristics, and fail.

It's not only this. They hired based on ability and competence but when your offer is rubbish this is your highest ability applied...

Are you saying they don't pay the aircraft maintenance personnel enough?

Absolutely. And it is not only pay but in general the conditions one has to endure. There is a reason average age of maintenance is something like 45. But here is a very good video about it: https://youtu.be/dNn6Yzcwpvw?si=OqUOniGshaUnF_lb

Boeing and in general aviation has a lot of systemic failure. But blaming only boeing for the MCAS 'failure' and 2 crashings is not correct.
