Boeing will be happy not to end up in bankruptcy.

I refuse to fly Boeing

The aircraft in question is registered HL8352 and had it’s first test flight in November 2019. The aircraft was then delivered to Korean Air in July 2022; presumably the large hiatus between was due to a combination of MCAS problems and COVID. So going by those dates, we are looking at a plane that has only done 23 months of revenue service
I don’t think it would have been a maintenance issue for such a young plane, the equivalent of this in the automotive world would be driving your brand new 2024 Ford Mustang off the dealer’s lot, and three months later the engine dies due to a major oil leak.

The “26.900 feet drop” (leveling off to 10.000 feet) is a standard procedure for decompression situations.

Is somebody fucking with Boeing? Like, is this some elaborate hacking or foul play? At this point I’m not ruling it out.

Now an aircraft descending is called “dropping from the sky” if it’s Boeing LOL. Folks, get a grip

Good, f them. I grew up thinking it would be a dream job to work there and when I did get to work there found out it was a place full of arrogant, lazy mullet headed boomers and a less than worthless management team. They deserve every bit of what they are getting.

What’s the problem? Worst case if it hits the ground it’ll go BOEING and we’re back up in the air…

Calls on Boeing. Plane falls out of sky, stock prices soar!
“Here at Boeing, we’re committed to making our stock price soar to new heights, unlike our planes.”

No it didn’t just ‘drop’ 26,900ft in 15mins lol, that’s less than 2000ft/min- less than the rate of a normal descent to landing.
Frustrates me that journalists correlate the pilot’s controlled actions after severe turbulence (which in most cases causes a less than 150ft change in altitude) as the incident itself.

everyone is crazy over the boeing thing, not one single person wants to talk about the 4500 planes that made it safe yesterday just about the one that almost didn’t. Flying is dangerous either company you use. but 1 out of the 4500 has an issue.. I mea obviously scary and we dnt want them cutting corners sure, but mainly all the planes are working right lol

It’s not really a drop though. The earth actually accelerated up by 26k feet.

Am I the only one that sees ‘drops’ and then “26,900 feet in 15 MINUTES” and recalls all of the “mild turbulence” I’ve experienced where the plane ACTUALLY ‘drops’ hundreds of feet or more in a split second?

This is getting to the point where I’m looking at boat tickets for overseas trips. Was never a “fearful flyer” but Boeing’s “incidents” are starting to cause some apprehension.
