737s in space…

To be fair, various models of the 737 have been in service for decades with a fairly enviable safety record.

The problem has been in the last 2 decades, when the whole “We can save so much gov’t money by shifting safety inspections to the companies themselves!” deregulation has led to execs pushing for profitability over safety.
