Devadander@lemmy.world 3 days agoSounds great on paper. In reality the engine fell off. This was not a properly maintained aircraft

Yeah you’re not wrong. I think the only real question is was this primary negligence (UPS cutting corners), secondary negligence (UPS policies encourage off the books corner cutting), or tertiary negligence (UPS parts procurement or supplier using dodgy parts.
I’m just kind of a pedant when it comes to bird lore. It’s not the age, it’s the maintenance/build quality. Sorry if it’s annoying. You see, I’m not wrong either, I’m just an asshole

I remember doing research on Flight 592, Florida jet crashing into the Everglades due to a contracted company not following protocol (they didn’t tape down the pins from oxygen tanks).
Low-level employees were held accountable, the company they contracted to for loading these hazardous materials (SabreTech) on the plane went bankrupt, without paying any of the fines, and no real punishment came out of the killings.
