      Now that is comedic timing!

      It is not. An engine failed and debris shattered the window. Not only Boeing doesn’t produce engines, pretty much the same engines power Airbus aircraft too.

        Thats a very fair argument.

        The mounting of the engine on the max is pretty unique from my understanding. Its much farther in front of the wing than prior versions to fit the larger diameter.
