Two Boeing airplanes have fallen out of the air and crashed in the past six months. On the surface, this is a technical failure. But the real story is about a company's desire to beat their rival.

Who’s here in 2024 when the 737 Max is still a safety menace?
Emergency door flew away on 5th January this year and all 737 MAX were grounded for inspection
Makes me sad to see a great American manufacturer to go down like that. They need radical changes in the management.
@@RandomGuy9 Yeah, they’ve focused too much on short term profits
@@RandomGuy9they used to be a lot better than this. Of course, then they got infected by McDonnell Douglass and their culture.

MCAS: might crash any second
More than a year later - still no accountability, no arrests - just more excuses.
No, Boeing took accountability and it has done its re certification flight and passed it. Yes it was rushed but the MCAS wasn’t supposed to behave like that which was a SOFTWARE error not a human error. The other problem is a lot of those obscure Asian/African airlines don’t give their pilots as good of training as we would get in the US because they just don’t have the money to provide it.
@@Reidhirsch You must be a Boeing employee with the way you attribute blame away from Boeing
Jordan Wong I’m not and I’m not saying that it wasn’t their fault and they could’ve done a lot more testing but the majority of plane crashes happen in countries with less money because of the lack of training that they give their employees. Look it up if you don’t believe me.
@@RIPped I don't think he worded his statement properly, but he's not entirely wrong. Boeing undoubtedly takes a majority of the blame here for over selling a product which in turn took the lives of so many people. However there are proper procedures in place for virtually any situation or system failure, including the MCAS. A properly trained pilot needs to know exactly what to do in case of an MCAS failure and all the other pilots that experienced and complained about it, managed to fly their planes without any real danger to the plane or lives on board.
Part of the problem was that since Boeing had promised a delivery date and minimal pilot training, they did not push for more training on the MCAS, and kept it secret for the most part. Other research also shows that test pilots on simulators in the Seattle location were pushing for more R&D, as they we encountering similar issues when initially testing the MAX. But HQ in Chicago either didn’t get the message, or didn’t care. This was an institutional failure by Boeing, caused primarily by the need to keep market share.
A high school class mate of mine was on one of these planes. When it happened so close to you, the number of deaths meant something to you.
Wait, he was on a boeing 737 max that crashed or was he lucky enough to be not on one of those? If he was tho, rip to him 🙏. Boeing should be charged so much money for everyone who died in the crashes.
My teacher lost two cousins in the Ethiopian crash. She was so broken that day when she told us. It hurt seeing her cry like that, I'm pretty sure she left early that day.
Glitch tragic... I hate it so much that people have to day because some rich people want even more money
As an Indonesian, I'm still bitter about this event. I just hate the fact that Boeing employees turned down Indonesian pilots request for more training and mock them instead. I'm crying just by watching this. The arrogance of those people. How dare
So sorry for the loss :(

If you can't keep your plane in the air without a software preventing the plane from crashing, YOUR DESIGN IS JUNK.

Keep in mind that for an American company, non-Americans are not people. Or at least not important people. That's why the USA didn't even want to ground this plane.
You are right, can't cut corners. The airlines hired pilots that I would never hired when I was the chief pilot of an airline. Those guys should never been in the cockpits.

im thinking about the satanic mandela effect moving the turbine to the front of the wing instead of underneath
Yep, scandalous. But that's going to bite them sorely in the ba**s as a consequence.
The pilots were told about it, just not trained properly by their respective airlines. It was a chain of events that led to the crashes, not just the MCAS.
@@BloatedBumbleBee to kill over 300 people in 5 months
They wanted to make something to rival Airbus. They did not have time, so they decided to cut the time needed to find and eliminate any problems. 2 planes crushed, they did not have to. The greed of Boeing officials killed innocent people.
Exactly. Pure greed… what other problems might this airplane family have, rather not find out the deadly way.
I wonder what the pilot was thinking during their final moments. It’s so difficult accepting your fate but trying to remain calm for the sake of your passengers. RIP the innocent souls that were lost. 💔

They violated one of the most basic premises of aircraft design. You do not ever trust just one sensor to feed info to a critical system.
There's still a very simple off switch though
@@RazvanMaioru Not when the feature is badly documented, you are under stress and every millisecond counts. It means one more thing to diagnose and rule out.
@@Avengerie it's the same trim cutoff switch as on previous models. You use it in the same circumstances (trim runaway), it's in the same place, it's the same switch, it takes the same amount of time to use it (the expected time it would take pilots to notice a failure, diagnose it and then use this switch is 3 seconds), and the same amount of time is required. The same memory checklist applies. How is this a worse design in any way? Or "one more thing to diagnose and rule out"?
@@RazvanMaioru Do you work for Boeing PR? Two pilots had a lot more than 3 seconds to figure this out and didn't.

@@johnames6430 the truth is hard to handle isn't it?
What’s heartbreaking about this is that when news of the Lion Air crash first broke, many people thought the problem lay with the quality of the pilots and the airline, and that it was a “3rd world country problem”. At the time, only a few questioned the responsibility of Boeing. Those poor pilots were doing everything they could to control a plane that Boeing intentionally hid important info about :( RIP :(
They should’ve known about a runaway stab tho. It’s very similar and they trained for it
Actually the vast majority of industry professionals still place the majority of the blame on the pilots. As Jay Jay said, this failure is very similar to runaway trim which has been around for a very long time. The lion air report glosses over some terrifying mistakes made by that crew
@@chrisbowpiloto The Ethiopian crew followed the runaway stabilizer checklist... and still crashed.
@@cityuser well they did half of it, and then undid it... That does not count as "doing the procedure" in this industry

I'd say capitalism was the overall cause, but* you won't believe me ( - _ -)

Nope their lives where lost because pilots weren't trained by the airline.
This reminds me of the DC-10 story. They were rushing the plane and it had fatal consequences
US pilots: Hey, our planes keep nosing down and nearly killing us. We should stop flying them Boeing: Is this some poor joke I'm too rich to understand
Huge American Companies can bet anything for money
Trump: "planes are just TOO complicated nowadays, it's NOT Boeing's fault"......
Low time inexperienced 3rd world pilots crashed....never happened in America. Truth is its not MCAS its alt capture on the autopilot.
Yes and the American pilots didn’t crash. 2 Stab Trim to Off.
The UnknownSG: This is my uninformed hot take on the situation. Me: Sigh.
What angers me is how the Boeing management told people that it's pilot error and if its an American pilot flew this it wouldn't crash. This really goes to show that America has such a big ego problem. America isn't the best in everything know that a lot of countries are far more better than America so don't think that you are far better than everyone else. And for Boeing be responsible if something happens and don't blame pilots first before looking at your own products because you aren't the best and this is proof.
there is truth in it though pilots in the us are told about the mcas which would work if pilots used it correctly by just not over countering it however airlines choose not to tell their pilots boeing did inform airlines and it was up to them whether to provide additional,training or inform at least to the pilots,in these 3rd world countries they didnt bother telling
Thank you Vox for providing the information necessary to understand what was going on with this situation in a digestible, aesthetic way.
When the 737Max is certified safe and ready to fly, the CEO of Boeing AND his family should be on that "new and improved" plane!
💯 💯
thats why the board is playing musical chairs no one want to fly in it
You kidding? I'd fly it today as long as the crew was properly certified as they would have been if these were American-based airlines. These crashes were caused by pilot error. At worst, the MCAS issue should have been a mild inconvenience and easily dealt with by exiting procedures for runaway trim regardless of the system responsible for it. But the pilots didn't handle the situation correctly and hundreds of people died as a result.
@@icemachine79 The pilots weren't allowed to. The computer has more span than the yoke, therefore, can override any input from the pilots. It was later proven, that even switching the system "off" wasn't enough to restore full control to the pilot, since, switching it off is a software command, rather than a hard transfer switch. Any error in software, or hardware malfunction, and the pilots cannot regain control. It's not like the "auto-pilot" in a Cessna, or Piper, though it should be!
@@vincentrobinette1507 None of what you said is accurate as demonstrated by the safe landing of the SAME Lion Air plane that encountered the SAME problem but luckily had a much more competent crew in charge on that particular flight. All they had to do was follow the runaway trim checklist to deactivate the electric trim system (which automatically disabled all MCAS commands) and manage their airspeed correctly in order to operate the trim manually. Unfortunately, after the plane landed safely and was checked in for repairs, Lion Air's maintenance staff failed to fix the faulty AoA sensor and illegally returned the plane to flight status. The next crew to pilot the plane then failed to follow the proper checklist for runaway trim which eventually resulted in a crash. The Ethiopian Airlines crew failed to throttle back at any point during the flight (lack of basic airmanship b/c co-pilot only had 200 hours in ANY cockpit) which made it almost impossible to manually trim the aircraft. The captain followed the proper checklist but his co-pilot was totally useless leaving him oversaturated with tasks. Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines are the companies that should be held to account for these deaths, not Boeing.
3 of my relatives have passed away in this accident and now knowing the cause was something like this making it more ironically and depressed. Those are souls, waited by their family but never came home.

@@laughingoctopus8556 Broooooo!!!! Who are you?
To all those souls who died on these planes, I’m sorry that you haven’t been given justice. Accountability is needed.
Yeah it sad man
And how should that work? Yeah obviously it is a thing you should wish for but unfortunately very unrealistic. For one in such cases usually not one person is guilty, but many people just a little bit, but usually no one enough that he can be held accountible. And even if it would be the case that someone has a high enough degree of accountabilty for this, it is hard to prove if not even impossible to find out. Just look at the "simple" question is the FAA guilty for not properly validate the plane for flying or is Boeing responsible because they did not test enough for themselfes? Is the engineer the bad guy even if he honestly believed that the MCAS would be a good system or the guy who decided that now further training is necessary? Obviously nothing we can answer here, but it isn't very likely that such question can be conclusively answered by an investigation committee.
@@lal12 uhhhh, ever heard of lawsuits?
@@yourlocalramen1660 sure. But it is not likely that a criminal case will ever be filed. There will be a (or multiple) civil lawsuit against Boeing which certainly will be successfull. But even if a single person will be accused getting certain proof that this person was aware of all the problems and clearly decided to ignore them. This will be mostly impossible. For one there are multiple circumstances which lead to the accidents, not just the technical flaws in the 737 Max. Then there are many different technical design faults which lead to the accident. Then it was mostly certified by the FAA and all changes that were not recertified do not formally require a recertification. And the FAA has issues in itself for one their conflicting functions (controlling and promote the aeronautic industry), also recent law changes lead to a more or less the self certification by the airplane manufacturer. So I doubt there is even a person or a group of people which can be singled out to be liable in some way. But even if you can find some, will be very hard to prove that in a criminal case. They would have to interview hundreds of people, which probably neither want to incriminate them selves or their coworkers. I don't say that there definitely aren't people which could be clearly be viewed as guilty from an ethical/morally standpoint. Especially if they put money before people's safety, but again this not really something that can be brought before a criminal court.

@@ava.and.jasper Not a lawyer in the whole of the 7 kingdoms is going to get them out of this one.
@@ava.and.jasper The people in the commercial aircraft industry are not pushing things under the rug to save money. The safety culture there is the best in the world, from engineers to flight crews everybody is focused on getting the job done every time and upgrading aircraft and procedures before tragedy strikes. The pilots of these two crashed aircraft had the training to react to this problem, but problems almost never happen during flight and pilots are sometimes caught off guard. (it's a strange side effect of being part of the safest industry). And yes, there was an unforeseen problem with the MCAS system and the manufacture was working on a solution before the first crash. It is safe to fly and getting safer all the time.

That, unfortunately is not a suitable ultimate approach that repects the true needs of the whole industry and humanity.

Reminds me of a book called 'The Glass Cage' by Nicholas Carr. He discusses the impact of autopilot-pilot interactions at crucial moments in piloting planes. Another interesting aspect of pilots dealing with plane feedback would be Errol Morris' interview of Denny Fitch operating a plane with no hydraulic. Fascinating case studies nonetheless. They're a good way to frame our relationship individually and as a society with the vast computational infrastructure that we continuously interact with on a second-by-second basis these days.
Someone should be held responsible for that. A company killed over 300 people for trying to make quick profit, how is that not treated as a criminal offence is beyond comprehension

he means the plane was too low to the ground for the new engine therefore couldn't get enough lift so they developed a software that pilots were not properly trained about
@@chateaupig826 Actually, the engines were too large, placed further forward on the wing for this reason, and actually created lift. Not a large amount of lift mind, the aircraft wasn't unstable.. but in order to ensure NG pilots can have the same common type rating on the Max, MCAS was used to slightly counter the front lift created by the engines, purely to make the aircraft feel like an NG.
chateau pig thanks
Exactly
And some people still say "if we got rid of all regulations the market will take care of everything!" THIS is why we need regulations. Those companies can make their profits back. We CAN NOT get those peoples lives back.
Well no, you're argument completely fails because we have extremely strict regulations and this still happened. Maybe in a world without regulations, it wouldn't have happened.
@@David-ud9ju Are you really that dumb ?
@@tomsriver2838 David is partly right - in an true open market there would be no protection for the airplane manufacturers either, they would have been fully open to be sued into the ground by airlines and passengers. We lack this today.
David because whenever there is a single loophole in regulations companies are not abusing that loophole to the absolute legal extend - and often beyond that... They don’t care about anything asides from making as much money as possible. That’s why we need regulations - to keep their raging hunger for money under control.
@@David-ud9ju the FAA did not have the money to conduct safety checks according to the regulations and had to rely on Boeing for that.
Here again cos of Netflix's 'Downfall: The Case against Boeing'
Same
It was just basically a big ‘blame Boeing!’ and not explaining the issues.
It's a bad design. They should have built a new airplane instead of simply trying to maximise profits. Boeing destroyed its reputation with this plane. It should be decommissioned.
boeing: the engine used to not fit but we shoved it in there and it actually worked
Well said.
This V12 1600 hp engine didn't fit under the hood in this camper van, so we just put it loosely right behind the driver, and made sure you could only give maximum thrust, and it fit nicely
Well, it didn’t really work....

Liar
@@collinoverby68 how do you know
Concorde had one crash and the whole fleet was scrapped by the FIA.Strange how they have not done the same to this American plane.
How is it strange? Concordes were scrapped because of the fuel expenses, not just because of a crash.
Safety safety safety please safety
Fly Airbus.
It's time to start sending multinational executives to jail. People need to be responsible for their decisions and the consequences of those decisions
Pax Webb and you will be decide who is going to jail and who is not
If only it was that simple.
Waaaaay worse than a handful of people. (1) Having only one sensor, (2) selling additional safety lights (In the cockpit) as extras, (3) cheaping out on buying the extra safety measures, (4) Boeing approving Boeing for safety, (5) Airlines to training pilots (The MCAS was in the quick reference but not the training), (6) An airline using the same plane KNOWING it had a problem that was luckily avoided on a previous flight. (7) Faulty software that in the event of two sensors disagreeing does not disable the MCAS system and not warning lights. Pretty much everybody messed up.
for sure
As someone who' have close friends in Boeing I can tell you this: The airlines and region's aviation rules decide which equipment package to get. Most Boeing 737 Max8s in the U.S. have three computers for example so when a sensor give a false reading it has to have two out of the three systems to agree with the sensor data in order for MACS to make adjustments. Pilots also have higher training times in the U.S. and having training of what to do when MACS fails which is shut it off and take manual control. The two crashes both planes the airlines only had one computer both times the computer malfunctioned on the previous flights but no mention was made to the second flight crew that coming on and ultimately was on the planes when they crashed. Lastly for one of the flights (I think Ethiopia Air) one of the pilots didn't know anything about the 737 Max 8 before coming on board. As result when MACS starts getting faulty readings and adjusting the course of the plane you have the crews trying to fight MACS manually instead of shutting down the flight computer and flying the plane manually while restarting the system. I don't think that this is Boeing's fault it's more of negligence on the Airlines.
So Airbus made a high-quality product. And then Boeing had to improvise with a quickly rushed product. Yet everyone bought the Boeing? It´s crazy how often this kind of thing happens.
@Zane Huston I am a software developer, hardware engineer and systems research & development specialist. Boeing engineers could not even develop proper maths to predict a disable-mechanism for software-driven sensors (of which at least one of them generated faulty data). This could have easily prevented if Boeing: 1) Engineered a plane whose older model wasn´t not only physically different (fuselage) but also the Turbine Engine physical differences (which decreased stability overall and made the fuselage from an aerodynamics point of view, unstable if ON TOP OF THAT, the nose and the tail of the plane were to move forwards and backwards, gathering strain onto fuselage itself, and then, such tension would move onto bigger turbines, causing the plane to lose horizontal alignment). 2) They suddenly moved from fat-like to thinner fuselages. Where is the physics formula, or calculus explained by them behind the different plane designs they took. Why are they only talking about software improvements. On what basis? Seriously. They should've just simply invested and outsourced some of the designs of the MAX 737 and a lot of feedback should have come first before they went selling these killing flying machines. Also, Boeing death track record still holds the highest in the planet (flying wise). I mean Boeing should just close all together and outsource at least the maths behind their designs. The moment I heard Boeing was making crew capsules I knew Boeing was killing people out there for money. I mean I grew up staring thousand of deaths in lieu of Boeing "half baked" plane designs. These people are criminals and they should be charged for what they are doing worldwide. Airbus is still one of the safest plane makers out there. BTW.
Refusing to buy Boeing products will cause huge unemployment rates in America and weaken the country's relations with foreign countries because Boeing has numerous factories around the globe and different states in America. Sadly US government is forced to buy from Boeing.
all FAA approved aircraft are quality.. otherwise they wont be airworthy, and if you mean airbus replacing an engine on a plane is quality, I don't even know why you made this comment.
@@ReasonsWhy1 That's why the FAA is now in big troubles I suppose? Because they do their job properly?
I have piloted both AIRBUS and BOEING aircraft, as well as LOCKHEED, MCDONNELL,DOUGLAS, and CONVAIR. BOEING is second to none. Many commercial pilots have a saying------ If it ain't Boeing, we ain't going.
If it's BOEING, I ain't GOEING!
This reminds me of the ship rivalry between Cunard and White Star from 1907 to 1912. Cunard built the world's largest ships, the Lusitania and the Mauretania, so White Star responded with larger ships, the Olympic, Titanic, and Britannic, but with flaws in their design and a lack of lifeboats to allow passengers to walk around. It ended with 1500 people dying on the Titanic.
This story is going to repeat again and again, next in a space ship
The Titanic did NOT have any flaws in its design, it really was the safest ship at the time. Also, it had even more lifeboats than the regulation required, people at the time thought there would always be a ship nearby to ferry passengers from one ship to the other if needed, so big ships in general didn't have enough lifeboats at the time. What this means? That ANY ship at the time would've had the same (even worse, actually) fate as the Titanic.
@@YgorCortes on top of that ships only had to be able to take on water in two of their boiler rooms and the titanic could take on water in up to 4. But. The iceberg just barely cut into the 5th room so the titanic couldn’t handle the water it took on. You are right it was the safest ship on the ocean at the time. If I remember correctly people also didn’t realize that Icebergs could cut the sides of boats like that as most iceberg crash’s had been head on collisions and the titanic was cut by a part of the iceberg they couldn’t see.
@@Averyliz23 exactly!! Unfortunately Titanic had the bad luck of hitting the iceberg exactly the way it couldn't handle :/
Also worth noting that despite the catastrophes that plagued the 3 sister ships, Olympic proved to be a very safe ship.
The most comprehensive video I’ve seen on the issue so far, great work
BlueGraySkies Definitely not. A lot is left out. Here is a playlist from start to finish of documentation and exploration from a highly experienced pilot. kzhead.info/channel/PL6SYmp3qb3uPp1DS7fDy7I6y11MIMgnbO.html

MCAS= May Crash Any Seconds
Kravuis Disturbed Media Creates All Stories. VOX just made up this explanation.
@@mpenner2124 Well explained that to 346 poor lost soul.
Kravuis Disturbed I would be willing to bet that those who lost their lives would much rather have the truth invested in than to have VOX and other media telling fallacious stories that mislead the public because they are clueless with physics, engineering, and investigative reporting. Fortunately, the actual crash investigation teams and the courts are likely to get closer to the big picture, which will inevitably be one of shared blame where Boeing and the regulators and the airlines and the pilots all need to take some corrective actions. Dealing with reality is what will honor those who died and their families.
M Penner Nice one, but unfortunately for you not true. VOX didn't make up anything. Boeing made the flawed MCAS system and told no one about it. That's the problem and it's the media's task to report on this. Nothing's wrong with this video.
@@AMSFlyer Maybe if I comment "iT's pILot ErRor aNd tHiS sYstEm iS gOOd aS guCCi" maybe he will likes it.
OMFG! 2 hours iPad training? LOL! Even we (tramdrivers in Prague) have longer and deeper training when something comes (is implemented) to our trams. I'm shocked!
Yeah that's why the planed crashed.
are they serious ? they have the lives of hundreds of passengers and pilots get trained with a tablet !!! oh my gosh !!! I hope Boeing trial will get live broadcast , so that their responsibility will get revealed to the face of the world
That’s a bit misleading, they had 2 additional hours of training for the max but they have months of training for the 737. Really Boeing should’ve just trusted pilots to know how to nose down.
@@Powderlover1 www.theairlinepilots.com/forumarchive/b737/b737memoryitems.php#i Those are just the memory items. Although pilots are supposed to know that (thus the name: "MEMORY items") in this case they did NOT. Even if they know the memory items but haven't practiced it in the simulator they are not properly trained. I'm sure any pilot would agree. Knowing how to do something and training to be able to do it in a crisis are two very different thing. Note the final item on the list: *STABILIZER TRIM WHEEL - GRASP and HOLD* You go ahead and try that.
@@tunkunrunk I think we can all agree they weren't trained properly. In the us idk how it works but in Europe it's generally the airlines which trains pilots afaik.
It’s now falling apart mid air take the 737 max off the market!! Boeing needs better quality control
Not a direct 737 max issue though - if it's a quality control issue it could be basically any boeing plane
I remember coming home one day and seeing my mom crying while the news was playing on TV after finding out one of her relatives passed. It was just devastating.
"This is an airplane engine" Well, it _was_
A bit of hammer action and it'll look good as new.
A lil bit of bynamic balancing and a fresh paint job and it's good as new
I'm sure with the right software update to mcats it will be fine
It´s still an engine. Just not working.
@@bowlchamps37 Spot on! My thoughts exactly.
Boeing : « Fortunately, these planes didn’t crash in the US »
*and no american dead* _sigh_
I heard some 737 max pilot complain to nasa anonymous
If they had been flown by U.S. based airlines, this never would have happened. These were both foreign carriers.
@@NamelessRider You just assume American Airlines and American pilots are the safest. Have you ever heard of Qantas? Have you ever heard of Air New Zealand? Have you ever heard of Lufthansa? Have you ever heard of Singapore Airlines? Have you ever heard over Eva Air? These are all foreign airlines, particularly the last 2 being from non-western countries
Yes it’s luck for Boeing bc if any of those planes did crash in the US Boeing is very likely to bankrupt or suffer a greater loss
Just flew on one of these, it was actually one of the most solid planes I’ve ever flown on. Maneuvered out of weather so well.
