There's enough emergency flights around the world each year that you could likely have a daily headline every single day, every single year, highlighting them, if you wanted to. It seems like now the "if you wanted to" has been triggered.

However, does HN get a front page post every time Airbus or any other manufacturer has something break or has an emergency landing? Why not? Why don't they get the same negative treatment?

Heck, 2 days ago an Airbus A319 had an emergency landing in Tampa because of a door problem, why don't I see a post about that on HN right next to this post about a 737 having an emergency landing?

When was the last time someone was almost sucked out of the side of an Airbus? Was it for a model in the same line as recent fatal crashes?

Boeing has earned some special attention.

the thing is nobody looks until you trigger their attention...and thats good i think

Inclined to agree. This one is a little vague & non-descript to stand out as unusual

Another 737-800, not a good look for Boeing

-800 is NG series, not MAX series though. Not that it matters much to the public.
