The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The FAA is still "analyzing" the incident in Denver. When I saw the "oh wow! look at that!" video on the evening news tonight, I thought "gee, that looks like a 73 too".

The St Maarten -800 was built in 2009. The Max 8 in Denver was built in 2021. Jim McNerney, who learned his craft at Jack Welch's knee, became CEO of Boeing in 2005.

Different generations, built 12 years apart, but two main gear collapses in 6 weeks is unusual.
