1 year agoPlanes require lots of maintenance not sure why everyone is saying Boeing is the cause of this one. How old is the modified aircraft? If it’s a few months off the assembly line and it’s having maintenance issue that is grounding the aircraft then yea give Boeing some shit but airlines/operators have to take planes out of service all the time for maintenance, shoot even the military does it.
I worked in Aerospace for a few years and the company I worked for did a lot of work for Boeing, mostly on the Apache program, Boeing definitely has its issues but maintenance issues are not a Boeing only issue.
Pretty much. If you can’t Google it you’re screwed in a lot of situations. Too many tenured IT folks have been through the forced self learning and insane hours figuring things out that they think training and documentation is not needed. I’ve definitely been there. In the late 90’s early 2000’s most orgs didn’t pay for IT shit so you just had to deal with it. It’s definitely better now but there are still people and companies that act like it’s 1999 still. I took over IT for an org a year ago that had their only IT employee die and they never recovered some of their data out of AWS because the dbag used personal accounts and didn’t document shit. This was a company with 500+ employees and that had 1 IT person. They also had a 2003 server that was implemented in 2005 that was never updated and was used in production until a month after I took the contract.
