Boeing deserves to die as the money grubbing losers they now are.
Yes, except that leaves us with one option for sending people into space again.
And one plane manufacturer.
What do you mean "again"? You mean still.
When we had the shuttle. We decided we didn't want to be in that situation again, but we still are.
Thats what i said.
Not really, Soyuz still exists. And it's not like Crew Dragon is unreliable or really all that bad.
Until Elon decides to use it as leverage to get something he wants.
I would hope Gwynne Shotwell + the U.S. government would be enough to prevent that from happening...
Would splitting it into three separate companies make any difference? Like maybe at least one of the three would get its act together?
No not at all. It is not a macro problem of organization. It's a micro problem of rich executive fuckwits running the corpo instead of actual engineers.
You can dice it up how ever you want, but if vapid, money-grubbing piles of trash are at the top, it will ALWAYS fail.
