Whistleblower 'would not' put family on Boeing 787 jet
(www.bbc.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Which, given the context that planes are necessary, you continue to ignore the OP:
And then your justification for not privatizing is cronyism. So the government contracts for air travel = bad, but the ones for your project are... good??
Your comment was really just a soap box to say air=bad, trains=good. I'm not going to argue trains are bad, but maybe make an honest argument for it.
I didn't claim that at all. I claimed that competition on travel is good. If people don't feel safe flying, there should be another, viable option, like trains. If enough people take trains instead of airplanes, airplanes will need to improve to get those customers back.
Trains have a lot of advantages vs airplanes, but I'm not arguing that. I'm arguing that we should have viable alternatives.
