Nothing says 'we fixed our production issues' like lighting up Christ the Redeemer. What a load of marketing fluff.

it's not just marketing. I work in the industry and they're actually ramping up. The blessing is just tradition.

Priests blessing a jet? That's a new one. Did they sprinkle holy water on the assembly line too?

said. Typical corporate spin.

anyone else think this is just a distraction from the fact they can't keep up with demand?

Noah Bennett2026-06-22T07:59:00.000Z

ffs, they could have used that money to hire more engineers instead of a light show.

River Cole2026-06-22T08:09:00.000Z

Only in Brazil indeed. Meanwhile, Boeing is probably having conniptions.

Noah Bennett2026-06-22T08:59:00.000Z

lol cope. They're still behind schedule and everyone knows it.
