Now more than ever, with the media under constant attack they should strive to present timely, accurate, non-biased content. And like Juan says in this video, CNN mis reported it and the other major outlets just parroted it and passed it along. The real correct information is out there, obviously. Juan found it. For F^(k's sake, it's your job to find it and report it....

Mentour Pilot discusses another inaccuracy in reporting about "dangerous faulty parts" on all the MAX aircraft. And that Boeing has completely lost it with regards to safety. Wrong. In the intense investigations and inspections of the aircraft, Boeing discovered that certain parts, namely the slat tracks, were designed to be heat treated, when in fact the sub contractors actually delivered non heat treated products. This situation does not cause the wings to fall off or the plane to crash immediately, it means they probably won't make it through the rated number of cycles. So they will just need to be replaced quicker hopefully with improved parts. Pilots train for non-functional and asymmetric flap and slat conditions. So even an in flight failure would not cause a significantly risky situation. And as Mentour points out, this is an example of the "system" working. They found a condition that causes concern through careful investigation, reported it, and now will abide by new guidelines that came out as a result of these investigations and reporting. They're going to fix this issue and make the plane safer BEFORE there was even an issue.
The entire mainline reporting on the MAX has completely sucked from the very beginning through today. That's very disappointing.
