and we should be able to see the new Airbus's making its first Flight into
LAX. I took a few pictures.

On previous models, the stabilizer was much weaker than the rest of the
aircraft. Now the entire aircraft has been weakened so that it all fails as a
single unit in a coherent way. If anything, the under-strength wings will go
first.

Any references? Really, you think they weakened the whole thing, that makes
way more sense than putting additional spars in the VS. Or maybe, just
maybe, they strengthened the vertical stabilizer in an effort to not repeat
the past. But hey you're a idiot so who knows how you think.

Or the Martians did it.

Actually, I think the misengineered the wing, making it too weak. Who knows
what else they messed up?
