given that all issues are fixed, would you be willing to get on the 737 MAX?
Only if they provide me a $10mill life insurance for the duration of the flight.
Wouldn't fly it because I don't know how to fly it. Then again, nobody does.
Yes if I’m given a parachute
Parachute wouldn’t matter really. The crashes occurred right after takeoff 🛫
Wow bunch of fearmongering going on here
Ok, you book the first ticket I’ll fly it after it’s been going for a yr
How so? Shit statement without any reasoning
Hell no
On a simulator, sure !!
Yes, given all the scrutiny it will be the safest thing in the sky.
Imagine if looking at code could catch all possible bugs
That's a common perception but not necessarily true, that scrutiny = safety. The root cause issues that allowed this to happen aren't necessarily going to be addressed. Look for two things above all others here... Required pilot training hours to fly the Max (and specifically training on MCAS emergencies), and also look for elimination of the angle of attack sensor as a single point of failure. If both of those aren't addressed in the "fix", don't get on one of these planes.

Biden’s new tax proposal is wild
No, never going to trust a new generation Boeing ever again. I still love the Boeing jumbo jets though.
You mean you will check everytime you book a flight. What if the other option is more expensive by $500. You'd pay it? What if it's the only flight option on that route. Will you take Amtrak?
Many of the new planes are bought by non-US carriers. A lot of planes you fly on in the US are ancient well-proven aircraft including 737NGs. It should be possible, just costly to Boeing (lol), to get the max fixed. It seems like some international carriers don’t have as many alternative options.
