Boeing – master of financial engineering instead of aircraft engineering

I took the liberty of editing a sentence near the end of the article.

> Steven Udvar-Hazy, executive chairman of aircraft leasing company Air Lease, which has 150 of these cursed planes on order, said, according to Reuters, that his company “asked Boeing to get rid of that word MAX. I think that word MAX should go down in the history books as a bad name for an aircraft.”

Should read:

> ... Air Lease ... “asked Boeing to get rid of ... MAX. I think that ... MAX should go down in the history books as a bad ... aircraft.”

The continuously-activating MCAS is such a monumentally stupid and dangerous system that I think you'd be a fool to trust any Boeing-engineered aircraft. I'll be avoiding them for the next few decades.
