How many people died because boeing made shitty planes and didn’t train their crew properly?

Is boeing done for?

They get one last chance! If they kill these astronauts this time, we'll be really, really mad like for real!

Don't worry, we have enough tax payer's money to bail them out if anything goes wrong.

I think messing up on NASA projects will hurt a company way more. Of course aviation is supposed to be safe, but even the 737 Max has flown thousands of hours. Comparing how many people that have flown on them, versus how many that have been hurt/killed, is still a small number, which is still is supposed to be zero of course.

Traversing space, a pinnacle of engineering, is quite another level of danger, and if you insist on your product being functional and safe, and then kills two astronauts, would cause a whole different level of backlash

How many deaths per 1000h does the max have?
