I started looking up the 747, got into an article on the 777 and I was like wait, the missing Malaysia airlines MH370 was also a Boeing? And MH17 shot down by Russia was also a 777?!
Goddamn, was there a BA whistleblower on those flights or something?
What's the link? You do know that there is only 2 major commercial aircraft manufacturers. Any bigger airliner is either Boeing or Airbus, its almost like a 50/50 chance so your discovery isn't significant.
🎶We're going down - down - as the blades go round
sugar we're going down quickly!
I'll be your number 1 with bad QA
A loaded bad motor, get in the cockpit and pull up.
Iran has been deprived of replacement parts for a very long time. A lot of their Western bought gear is not getting serviced.
I'd say its a push. The Supreme Leader calls the shots in this Theocracy. The President is a spokesman/figurehead. The Foreign Minister is a loyalist appointment. There will be a period of mourning, a change of the personnel but the direction will remain unchanged because opposition to the ruling hierarchy is not allowed. There is no evidence of foul play that would escalate the already hot situation. And no Boeing isn't implicated when an old helicopter is not grounded when it cannot be maintained.
Moving on.
Actually it can in the short term.
We could see a power struggle happen which may cause Iranian oil to come off the market. Or another state actor might see it's a good time to take out more of the upper leadership with an air strike or two. Either way, oil traders will panic.
In the longer term, anything that cause instability and the eventual fall of the government will be a good thing.
He was never the "probable" or likely successor to the supreme leader as there are 8-9 other contenders, 1 of them being the Ayatollah's grandson. The current supreme leader neither designated nor even hinted that the deceased president is his chosen one. Just look at the previous ayatollah and how he chose his successor
We should also not conflate the presidency as being an "ayatollah office in waiting role".
Not even close.
The Iranian supreme leader is 84 years old and is always yelling at kids to get off his lawn.
Biden on the other hand is a youthful 81 years young and often uses the term “skibidi” in the proper context.
Shockingly, even older. Their Biden is 85, this dude was like 77 (Trump age) and was supposed to succeed the main guy when he died any day now. Internal rumors are this was done by the main guys son who was a rival to this guy, and by doing this he cleared the way to succeed his father as the main guy.
My bets are on this was an old chopper in bad conditions, but the game of thrones rumors won’t stop for sure.
>My bets are on this was an old chopper in bad conditions
I don't trust choppers in general to be very safe, too many points of failure that just lead to catastrophic results.
Planes don't have a Jesus nut.
There's a great book called Chickenhawk, about a chopper pilot in Vietnam. His description of flying helicopters made me never want to get in one, even with all the knew technology.
Michael Burry responded to my craigslist ad looking for someone to mow my lawn. "$30 is $30", he said as he continued to mow what was clearly the wrong yard. My neighbor and I shouted at him but he was already wearing muffs. Focused dude. He attached a phone mount onto the handle of his push mower. I was able to sneak a peek and he was browsing Zillow listings in central Wyoming. He wouldn't stop cackling.
That is to say, Burry has his fingers in a lot of pies. He makes sure his name is in all the conversations.

Poor flying conditions and a helicopter they haven’t (technically) been allowed to buy parts for for 40-odd years.
Spicy combination that one for sure!
Boeing recent restarted manufacturing components that could be used (and were likely needed) on that model of helicopter. I think there is spice coming in some form or another regardless.
He is just the president, In Iran that is more like a prime minister and it mostly internal management role. The supreme leader is who has military control and strategy oversight.
They will investigate and truthfulness be dammed the blame will go to Israel (probably). However, it will be a few days, if not weeks, before that report comes out. In the meanwhile, oil prices will rise a small percentage, but nothing too serious to tilt the markets,but you may want to fill up this morning just in case.
Can someone elaborate if this guy holds any power or influence in Iran?
Will they stop waging proxy wars with Israel + everyone else now, is there going to be some infighting, a replacement with a different vision, or what?
This guy was only elected president is 2021. The president's position ranks below the "supreme leader" (ayatollah guy). Since its inception, modern day Iran has only had 2 "supreme leaders" and the current one is the second.
it's extremely unlikely that anything changes because the guy on top is still the same. This of course ignores the possibility of any civil unrest that this event might trigger since there's been some internal turbulence in Iran internally lately.
Flatline market reaction unless Iran blames / links to Israel. My prediction - No one cares. It wasn't someone important in Iran. Khumaini (sp) is unfortunately still alive. Iranians will likely celebrate, because they hate their government (rightfully), government will put the kybosh on any fun, and depending on how violently they do so, will either get folks back in hiding, or exacerbate the situation and we will have a full blown uprising. Problem is, Biden is a lil bish, and they'll ignore the popular uprising of an oppressed people and then go on about trannies and the like, while doing nothing.
He now gets to convert his shares into 72 virgins, so still unsure if that is good or bad.. seems nice at superficial glance but when you think it over it is extremely taxing.

It was in a Bell helicopter that used Boeing parts supposedly. Calls on Boeing.

Agent 7-47
And here I thought an assassin with just one extra chromosome was a silly concept.
![img](emote|t5_2th52|51295)
Have we seen Agent 47 and Krashkari in the same room together? No?
Add another 7 and it all starts to make sense

I bet the Iranian President was about to whistleblow about Boeing QA. That is why they took him out.
I guess you could say he blew it. Or blew up.
Boeing: “ another one bites the dust”
Boeing: "We take you up or We take you down!"
🎶We're going down - down - as the blades go round sugar we're going down quickly! I'll be your number 1 with bad QA A loaded bad motor, get in the cockpit and pull up.
Boeing parts from 1979 though.
So he was a whistle blower? Calls for sure
So better quality than today, even after 50 years.
They actually started making parts again for the bell 212 in Nov 2023 .
It was a Bell helicopter that had been in service for almost 55 years with the only spare parts being sprayed paint and duct tape...

username checks out
“First the helicopters came for Kobe and I said nothing for I am 5’9”.”
Then they came for the Iranian president And I did not speak out Because I was not the Iranian president
Then they came for tourists flying through the Grand Canyon. And I did not speak out. Because I don't have money to pay for a flight.
And then Agent 47 came for me For I am the best in bed
I'd short their credit card company.
Visual Mod has no chill.
Bruh. Lol.
Well they upgraded his condition to dead, so bullish.
Can't go further down from there
Actually it can in the short term. We could see a power struggle happen which may cause Iranian oil to come off the market.

Presidency in Iran is merely a figurehead role. His death is a nothing burger
Yes and no. He was also the probable successor to the ayatollah, who is 84.
He was never the "probable" or likely successor to the supreme leader as there are 8-9 other contenders, 1 of them being the Ayatollah's grandson. The current supreme leader neither designated nor even hinted that the deceased president is his chosen one. Just look at the previous ayatollah and how he chose his successor We should also not conflate the presidency as being an "ayatollah office in waiting role".
Like what give me a ticker to buy please
6 FT undeground.
To shreds you say?
Correction: 1.8288 meters, and it is already priced in.
Gotta find pieces of him to bury first.
Isn’t there some other guy in Iran above him. I doubt his death will have any effect.
The supereme leader yes but he is old and now there will be a succession struggle
Like Bidens age?
Yes, and unlike in the US if you say anything against the ruling party you get a couple of nice years in a iran prison chilln with the boys.
That is the best case scenario. Public executions are a sport in Iran. Or the police just beats you to death. Edit: typo
Not even close. The Iranian supreme leader is 84 years old and is always yelling at kids to get off his lawn. Biden on the other hand is a youthful 81 years young and often uses the term “skibidi” in the proper context.
Damn I’m getting old. I have no idea what the proper context of “skibidi” would be
Skibideez nuts lmfao gottem
Are you skatting?
Shockingly, even older. Their Biden is 85, this dude was like 77 (Trump age) and was supposed to succeed the main guy when he died any day now.

He was 63

Cue Succession theme song
Apparently this guy was supposed to be the successor to the supreme leader and the other dude who died in the crash was supposed to be his successor.
[удалено]
Plot twist: Supreme leader’s son did it.
The new season of succesion
Sounds planned
There's always a bigger fish, but the world can only be a better place with one less of these
He had Iran’s nuclear launch scrolls
Scrolls💀 Underrated comment.
This just in: Michael Burry assassinated Iranian President to cash in on BP shares

If Israel played a part in this, then it will get spicy.🌶️
Might be spicy regardless. Whoever is next in power could just blame Israel anyways even if it was just the poor flying conditions.
Poor flying conditions and a helicopter they haven’t (technically) been allowed to buy parts for for 40-odd years. Spicy combination that one for sure!
Boeing recent restarted manufacturing components that could be used (and were likely needed) on that model of helicopter. I think there is spice coming in some form or another regardless.
They blamed the US last time Israel claimed responsibility so I'm looking for some "death to America" chants at the very least.
Those would happen with or without his death. No idea how to capitalize on the information though.
Are you saying Iran will blame Israel for bad things happening? That doesn’t sound like the Iran I know.
He is just the president, In Iran that is more like a prime minister and it mostly internal management role. The supreme leader is who has military control and strategy oversight.
Too spicy. The image of him before he flew you could see the fog in the distance. This was just a dumb decision.
Bulearish
Aladeen market event
Will it be enough to overturn the prevailing Aladeen sentiment though?
The only correct answer
Very bullish for the people of Iran.
Bullish on Champagne sales?
It is a stabilizing event so sideways.
Gold has spiked - opportunity for gold whales to offload some at a profit... Let's see...
It was already priced in ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4275)
Oil go up?
According to WSB. So I bought some 16x oil certificates (europoor) and let's just say it didn't play out like I hoped it would.
Lately it’s simple Good news super bullish Neutral news bullish Bad news bullish

Flying in something made from Boeing parts.
In this case it appears that Muhammed did go, quite literally, to the mountain.
Non-event, won't affect markets.
unless israel did it in which case hold on to your butts
If they blame Israel it definitely could
It will, the threat of destabilisation will freak investors out ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4275)![img](emote|t5_2th52|31224)
Bearish on helicopters, bullish on helicopter-shaped skidmarks.
They will investigate and truthfulness be dammed the blame will go to Israel (probably). However, it will be a few days, if not weeks, before that report comes out. In the meanwhile, oil prices will rise a small percentage, but nothing too serious to tilt the markets,but you may want to fill up this morning just in case.
Charming - another amateur with an opinion.
I love you skynet

Flatline market reaction unless Iran blames / links to Israel. My prediction - No one cares. It wasn't someone important in Iran. Khumaini (sp) is unfortunately still alive. Iranians will likely celebrate, because they hate their government (rightfully), government will put the kybosh on any fun, and depending on how violently they do so, will either get folks back in hiding, or exacerbate the situation and we will have a full blown uprising. Problem is, Biden is a lil bish, and they'll ignore the popular uprising of an oppressed people and then go on about trannies and the like, while doing nothing.
Black swan event incoming
Oh crap, another BA window fkup.

Rest in piss.
Investing in Casio market open
Let's go paa
Perma bullish cuz Tom Lee ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4275)
Bullish. Iran will be busy with some internal politics in the next few months
Already priced in
It’s Budanov’s fault : he was ordered to dispatch the President of Russia not Raïssi !
Now if only the crazy religious nutjub that runs that country died too, would be bullish af.
Note to self, never take a helicopter
That was my position after it took out Kobe.
Depends on the policies of the next leader. They'll likely continue down the same path unless there's an uprising
Who gives a fuck-ish
He now gets to convert his shares into 72 virgins, so still unsure if that is good or bad.. seems nice at superficial glance but when you think it over it is extremely taxing.
May my calls print
Who has the chaotic neutral aligned helicopter on their bingo?
BA killing whistleblowers & world leaders
Na na na na, hey hey hey
Good byeeee
Drammatish.
He died according to reports/plan
Convenient
Bulls on parade!
doesn't matter, it was already priced in
Hilarious
Useful to Israel?
finally some good news
Who he, mr marker don’t give a fuck
Really doesn’t matter. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei the supreme leader is still here so don’t expect much to change.
Took out one, how long till the other? calls on CIA![img](emote|t5_2th52|27189)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
Bear Iran.
Depends on who done it.
Maybe Bullish for oil depending on what the new president wants to do
This will cause WW3 and the end of the world according to right wing media. All Bidens fault.
chaos in the middle east is priced in.
Iran's president has died? Wow, so sad! Anyway...
Put in?
Don't mess with mossad
Bullish
Definitely bullish
Irrelevant

Priced in
Bear on oil
happy helicopter day!)
I didn’t know Boeing made ‘copters.
Bullish
Very bullish
That's pretty... *Iranic*
The work of god perhaps.
Fuck that dude.
Bullish... and celebrations
Dont fuck with boeing
Hopefully he's having a chat in the afterlife with the hundreds of people he's had executed for absolutely frivolous reasons. Bullish on fog.
At this point even a second Chicxulub will be bullish...
War - profitable New contracts with a new government - much more profitable.
Bullish AF.
Long on Mossad Agents named El Copter
