I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

The commercial product likely is not the part specified in the approved aircraft drawings; does not come with certificates of conformance and the necessary traceability paperwork; and probably was not subjected to environmental stress testing, among other things.
Edit: unless they're talking about the commercial aircraft part for the airline version of this plane (e.g. 767 parts for KC46). In that case, the parts are likely interchangeable and there should be some way to make the paperwork work.
