Yes, I realize that it was AC's management who didn't select the NB replacement sooner. But I don't dare to blame anyone. It is a huge responsibility (we are talking what, $ 7 billion worth of aircraft at list prices?), so I guess they were analyzing the hell of both options. And honestly, if even a year ago somebody would say that the MAX will suffer two crashes with total loss partly attributable to the aircraft, this person would be declared insane. I have to say that even despite not being a 737 fan.
