    How did it break up? I wasn’t aware that Boeing was determined to be a fault in the build process.

      Yeah fair point. Boeing has a degraded reputation these days but at the mo we don’t know why it broke up. Probably never will. I’m kinda going on Occam’s razor here.

        Occam’s razor

        We should have captured that thing when he dropped it. It’s just going to keep causing trouble up there.
