#3Can someone tell me if this is just confirmation bias or is Boeing really going down this hard? I mean management was obviously tanking since the McDonnell Douglas takeover, but did it really take almost 30 years for this to shine through? Or were these things underreported in the last decades?

I duckduckgo'ed "nose gear collapse" earlier and it seems it may be an issue that's more common than expected? At least there were lots of images of airplanes with broken front wheels and the nose touching the floor.

One post said that the plane was only 4 months old.

Confirmation bias, instant communication, hyper focus on Boeing mishaps, etc.

This is a joke about "The Front Fell Off", a classic comedy video from a few decades ago.
