'I’d get on in a heartbeat': Starliner astronauts would fly on Boeing spacecraft again despite malfunctions (video)

what is it they say about "old" pilots and "bold" pilots ?
 
NASA (Never A Straight Answer) has ongoing interests that don't comport with astronauts saying bad things. Only when recently interviewed did I learn of the Starliner losing control during the docking process, or at least how precarious the situation was. Somehow NASA thinks if they don't let information out, then the public will never know. If I see Butch or Sunita (or anyone else) ever board a Starliner, then I'll believe what they say.
If someone wants to tell me the Starliner wasn't out of control would probably be quick to remind me that the astronauts weren't stranded either.
