Right. Boeing did not want to train the pilots re how to use that new MACS system, because it would have cost Boeing lots of money. And Boeing was able to convince the FAA that such training was unnecessary.
Which just goes to show ... the entire system is corrupt. The company and the regulators allowed people to die – well, let's be honest and say they KILLED PEOPLE – solely out of greed and the desire to make greater profits.
Sad truth, to be honest. All those lives lost because of greed and no one is being held accountable. I wrote a term paper and even made a Steem post about this topic earlier in 2019.
You highlight another issue – the complete regulatory and judicial capture by the millionaire class. Once your salary reaches that level, it seems, you are for all intents and purposes beyond the reach of the law. It's sick and disgusting.
I hope Justice gets served at the end of the day.
