Jeebus, Boeing

The flight up on Starliner to the ISS was bad. As in between the devil and the deep blue sea bad.

Boats, aeroplanes, and cars there are moment where; what is that
noise, that didn't feel right, or just plain oh shit moment happens.
You plan and train for that to avoid the worst or even salvage it.
But that story has a good ending to what very well might have
been historically a screaming shit moment.

I feel Boeing failed hard on that one. They didn't test adequately
and there was history of the thrusters being fussy. The whole
thing screams of get-there-itis and that kills people.

They Boeing didn't ask the one question... Why'd did it do that?

The Boeing Starliner is shaping up to be the most poorly designed American spacecraft since Apollo1. Which was built by a company that was absorbed, eventually, by Boeing.
