Did you contact CNN to let them know reporting this incident is inappropriate?

There’s a reason why new hires should start on the 737, the 757 is an airplane designed for someone with a bit of Boeing experience.

I respectfully disagree.

The 757-200 is a sweetheart compared to the newer 737s like the 737-900ER or MAX9.

It's like Boeing fixed all their narrowbody weaknesses back in the '80s, then forgot the lessons.

CNN reporting is quite different than those who claim to be United pilots commenting on one of our own.

Lots of emotional damage as well...

Why do y'all think the plane is a write-off? The pics look like a few tire changes and quick landing gear wash and she's good to go....
