The recent Alaska Airlines near disaster when a chunk of a 737 MAX fuselage became dislodged at 16,000 ft. was decades in the making. One must be awfully naïve to believe that Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun and the FAA have the determination and resolve to turn around what was once America’s most celebrated company.
Readers of my blog shouldn’t be surprised by Hertz’s EV debacle, but my late mother would have been shocked that my early skepticism has proven correct.
My tribute to Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib for being crowned the “2023 Antisemite of the Year.”
It was never a question as to whether a Boeing 737 MAX 9 would have a disastrous calamity but rather when. So repeatedly warned an employee at the supplier plant that manufactures the fuselages for the aircraft, according to a lawsuit filed last year.

Why the looming ouster of Harvard president Claudine Gay will be bad for the Jews.

Why I’ve long admired Toyota and argue that what’s good for the Japan-based automaker is good for America.
The Center for Automotive Safety recently questioned the manhood of anyone who would buy Elon Musk’s Cybertruck because it weighs some 6,000 pounds. CAS was stereotyping in its assumption that only insecure men would be attracted to a monster electric pickup.
Turns out the most famous driver of GM’s EV Hummer, which weighs more than 9,000 pounds, is a woman.
