Definitely maintenance, but the number of Boeing specific issues lately is alarming. Even given the media’s tendency to over report issues like these for headlines.
It’s not like Airbus is a small competitor with a fraction of Boeing’s sales. Airbus makes more planes than Boeing, and has for the last 5 years, with close sales before that.
Airbus has failures all the time, you just don’t see them amplified. Brake failure last week on approach to Seattle: you never read about it, you don’t remember it.
Yep. They’re having engine issues lately. But it’s easy clicks for the news to shit on Boeing right now.
Even if in this case it’s not necessarily Boeing’s fault, the ill publicity is well deserved for sure
