> “Indonesian investigators have said the Lion Air Boeing 737 jet that plunged into the sea, killing 189 people in October, was not airworthy on a flight the day before it crashed.

And was repaired between the two flights as I quoted above. Are you selectively ignoring the information in the very post you replied to?

Here's that information again to refresh your memory:

> The chief executive officer of Lion Air, Edward Sirait, said the aircraft had a "technical issue" on Sunday night, but this had been addressed in accordance with maintenance manuals issued by the manufacturer. Engineers had declared that the aircraft was ready for takeoff on the morning of the accident

You and the other poster seem to be basing your whole position on time not moving forward in a linear fashion: Failure, repair, flight. In that order.

Pointing out the previous day over and over while ignoring what occurred in the interim isn't a real argument.

Let's say you hear a knocking sound from your car engine. You take it to a mechanic for repairs, and the mechanic says he fixed it. But you still hear the knocking sound. If you repeat this cycle for a few times, when the mechanic says for the Nth time that he fixed the problem, is it actually fixed?
