    Unbelievable. It was not Boeing to be blamed as it was the man who was on a maintenance routine. Due to his negligence, he was sent to jail.

    Soon they found out it wasn’t Boeing’s fault
  • If anyone was at fault, it was Aeroperu and not Boeing, but i dont think it should be a lawsuit over this. It was an accident caused by a few mistakes. The need for someone to blame is such a messed up thing, unless it was a deliberate action or extreme negletion, which in this case it’s not.
  • Magnificently stupid. The ports literally have placardings that say "make sure free and clear before flight" on them. The manual says to uncover them before flight. This is entirely and utterly the airlines fault for criminal negligence, nothing to do with Boeing
  • @ Air Peru crash lawsuit--- is there a non terrible way to die in an aircraft crash?
  • Well we couldn't blame either the pilot or mechanic for forgetting to remove the tape blocking the static ports

    Why would you put tape on a sophisticated aircraft? Absolutely maintenance fault.
  • Hey Smithsonia(n channel aviation nation)! I want to request you to do Surinam Airways flight 764. It's my nationality!

    This is the most bogus thing I've ever heard. If you do anything to an aircraft that makes it unairworthy is is FAA regulations that you enter it into the log book. These guys were cleaners and have no access to the logbook and should of had a licensed mechanic enter the tape into the log book. Then if a mechanic was involve you would be using the correct tape. These rules are international in scope and don't just apply in the United States. If you want to make your own aviation rules plan to lose your airplane and your life. Don't just blame Boeing every time you crash an aircraft cause they have the most money. What will keep it from happening again unless you start making a logbook entry? If there was an open write up in the log book the captain never would have left the gate until it was cleared by a licensed mechanic. So many people around the world know so little about the business of aviation and when they get hurt because of ignorance they don't know who to blame. This was NOT Boeings fault guys... Period. Glad to see Aero Peru went under bunch of armatures.

    Boeing did their job by making the 757. The ground crew and. Captain are at fault
