If Boeing stock drops another $30 or so, I'm going to have to buy some.

Why? I think there’s a decent chance they don’t survive this - at least their commercial airplanes. I won’t fly on a Boeing any time soon, if ever. It will take years to get back to a safety culture and there are tons of shit planes manufactured in the past several years that will be in service for decades.

If I was a pilot, I wouldn’t want to fly one either. They just had another incident where a pilot says the gauges went blank and he lost control. If a pilot union starts pushing back, it’s game over.

Would you fly on one of their planes?

Boeing isn't going anywhere, they're a major part of the US MIC and DoD contracts will keep em afloat. They clearly don't care about civilian affairs, based on their QC as seen here, imo
