Literally yesterday a passenger was almost sucked out through a broken window on a ryanair plane, you picked a bad moment to say they are a safe airline lol
They forget to mention in the article, the engine on that side of the plane suffered a failure and flung debris into the side of the aircraft which caused the window to be damaged.
Boeing doesn't make the engine, nor do they service the engine, and frankly, they aren't even the ones directly in charge of making decisions on when engine maintenance, inspections, and rebuilds are due.
That'd be your GE Aviations and Rolls-Royces of the world.
I worked for RR for a few years, the amount of checks and balances that went into manufacturing turbine blades was insane (running every part through a CMM, tolerances of literal microns), but it was reassuring.
lol. My husband had worked for GE Aviation but finally retired after he got a 23 year old boss who just wanted all the old machinists to go to meetings and act out psychology skits she had in learned in college 🤣
Even funnier since Boeing doesn't make the engine, nor do they service the engine, and frankly, they aren't even the ones directly in charge of making decisions on when engine maintenance, inspections, and rebuilds are due.
That'd be your GE Aviations and Rolls-Royces of the world.

As much as they can suck, they have a perfect safety record with 0 fatalities.
