    What’s a few more bodies on top of the 346 passengers and 2 whistle blowers? Don’t worry, the ceo got his 45% raise.

    Boeing engineers are advocating for flying Starliner as is, that enough is known about the problem that failures will not occur during the vehicle’s return to Earth.

    Yea honestly those engineers should go and fly on Starliner themselves first. They could even replicate the issue on the ground, and yet it’s still unknown what’s causing it but they feel comfortable to just say “nah it’s fine”?

    I wonder how the astronauts feel about getting back on it to return…

      The astronauts don’t have to get on the star liner if they don’t like it. That’s probably the Boeing thinking.
