You could always brute force comparisons between different mods

I read OPs comment as being a question about using a company with a reputation like Google rather than using a cloud service, but I could be wrong.

San Luis Obispo has like 50k people, not sure it’s listed under 250k+ pop

I wonder if it’s cheaper to just store and vend the censored version from a CDN? Though maybe they could just do the censor step in the app, idk

And different winglets

Oh you put them in the dishwasher? I guess I didn’t think of that

They’re not really easy to clean, but I’m sure I’m also “cooking wrong”. With that said I only ever use cast iron so I don’t really care

Probably for spray paint or other damage. Or maybe for identifying when it fails

Absolutely, there just seems to be some in this thread (I had assumed including yourself after reading your comment) that believed all turbulence could be detected before hand.

You cant always detect turbulence before you run into it

These also look like the ones rishi uses which they claim is silk

You should read what’s done in an annual. For GA, aopa had a good article recently talking about doing the right maintenance because doing everything your AP suggests may be more intrusive and less healthy for the plane. It’s not as aggressive you’re claiming.

Also as others note, age matters in determining where the issue came from. Eg this almost certainly isn’t a Boeing issue.

As a new pilot I really recommend watching the show Mayday Aircraft Investigations, it’s very informative. The accidents are for commercial aircraft, but still I think seeing all the details and the root causes and breakdown in process is enlightening even as a private pilot.

There are varying levels of quality of service in different countries due to shipping infrastructure, partnerships, content restrictions, etc, and I’d say that ties into the cost.

The FAA already grounded their fleets.

Watch the documentaries, the former MD board basically took over Boeing, moved leadership out of WA to Chicago, set up separate plants (one in Georgia not sure if there are more) to counter union/worker demands in WA, etc. This has been a long process resulting in the rotting of the company from the inside out. The 787 was the first example of their garbage - - even though I like the plane, it had a lot of issues.

That’s mainly for their blue collar jobs afaik

My dad did that so I copied him starting back in elementary school
