      It’s some variation of CFM56-7B, but when referring to the plane as a whole, it’s fair to call it a Boeing engine since Airbus also uses engines designed by CFM.

      I think most people feel like this now. Their reputation will never recover from this. From now on, airplane safety failure will be synonymous with Boeing.

      They need to pass on. Their time has come and gone, as have their engineering standards and ability to document things. It’s unacceptable behavior for any company, but especially a defense contractor, and I’m not talking ethics here.
