Boeing wants FAA to exempt MAX 7 from safety rules...
Is the “McDonald-Douglas” misspelling a joke or a mistake? Curious if this is an existing joke that I haven’t seen until now, because it kind of works.

Even if unintentional, it’s funny because that’s how MD operated. Sure it’s a plane. Is it good? No.

No, but it's helpful for people like me, who didn't remember the correct spelling.
