À propos de ce livre

How did the world's most trusted aerospace manufacturer build a commercial airliner that actively fought against its own pilots, ultimately diving two planes into the ground and killing 346 people? The grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX is a harrowing study in the lethal consequences of corporate greed, aerodynamic compromises, and deregulated software. To compete with Airbus without spending billions to design an entirely new airframe, Boeing strapped massively oversized, fuel-efficient engines onto the 1960s-era 737 chassis. This changed the plane's center of gravity, causing the nose to pitch up dangerously during flight. Instead of fixing the physical aerodynamics, Boeing secretly installed a software patch known as MCAS to automatically force the nose down. Tragically, MCAS relied on a single, easily damaged sensor. When the sensor failed, the software violently hijacked the plane, fighting the terrified pilots all the way to the ground, while Boeing deliberately hid the system's existence to avoid expensive simulator training. This uncompromising aerospace forensic analysis dissects the culture of regulatory capture. It explores the systemic failure of the FAA, the toxic pressure on Boeing engineers, and the dangerous modern reliance on software to patch fundamentally flawed physical hardware. Never patch physics with code. The 737 MAX tragedy proves that prioritizing stock prices over engineering integrity inevitably results in mass casualties.
