Is this idiot still around. The sky is falling, the sky is falling should have been Nader's trademark.
“The plane cannot be refixed,” said Nader, whose grandniece was killed in a March crash of a 737 Max jet in Ethiopia.
- I feel for this guy, but this is emotions talking and not engineering. Everything can be fixed, they van design an entire new wing, gear and engine mount for this aircraft and it will be good as any airbus with these engines. Although it will have a price tag.

Designing a new wing, gear, and engine is what helped them get into the MAX mess in the first place. Then they needed software to make the thing flyable.
You can refix a car, a microwave oven and so on but a plane is a plane and the Max 8 had an inbred and inherent aerodynamic defect that re-fixing is only asking for more trouble.
Of course he says that, he would not get headlines by saying it will be flying again before the end of the year.
ralph nader does not stand reflexively for truth and factuality, at least in my experience. This egotistical s.o.b. interjected himself into a presidential election and we got second best as a result. There are engineering organizations , who if said the same thing, would garner further interest in ending the Max as we know it. Let us allow Boeing to redo, re design and begin again this Boeing Bucking Bronco, as airlines all over the globe once lined up to buy and fly thousands of them, and Boeing needs the revenue, but the public requires finally a safe, reliable, predictable-to-fly Boeing 737 whatever-the -hell number they finally call. Boeing will require absoslution.
