In other news, Boeing's 10 latest whistleblowers have joined a death cult and committed mass suicide. Strangely, all managed to shoot themselves twice in the back of the head. Several US judges have been overheard quipping about how strange these coincidences were, but seemed to be nonplussed.

9 year old aircraft. Probably a maintenance issue.

9 years old? That's practically brand new!

It kinda is, but the quality issues are sorta new. To be honest, this has been 20 years running. It's only now showing up.

This aircraft predates most of the issues. I suspect FedEx cheaped on maintanance.

You can actually see their rush to deliver those packages on time

I'm not a betting man, but how many of these do you think will have to happen before US regulators admit there's a problem?

Here I'll fix their headline. Boeing 767 crashes on Istanbul runway due to faulty front landing gear.
