For more than 50 years, a version of Boeing 737 aircraft has sailed the skies. When designed

began in 1964, Boeing was looking to build a smaller version of its 727 models. They decided on a plane around a half the size of its predecessor, with seating for around 50 to 60 people.

German airline of Tanzo was the first to buy into the new model ordering 21 planes in 1965. Months later, US airline United ordered 40.

Yep, it was the start of something big. And so it went for more than 20 years, the Boeing 737 dominated the market for short-range, short-haul domestic planes, becoming the best-selling commercial aircraft of all time.

But that changed in the late 1980s when a company called Airbus entered the market with its Model A320. The corporate giants would do it out for the biggest market share, but soon this competition would come at a cost.

Specifically, the lives of 346 passengers. The battle between Boeing and Airbus has been the subject of our last six episodes and today we hear from aviation safety expert Tom Anthony of the University of Southern California about what went wrong in the past year.

And what Boeing's blunder means for the future of the company. That's next on Business Wars.

Hello, I'm Hannah and I'm Sirete and we are the hosts of a Redhanded, a weekly true crime podcast. Every week on Redhanded, we get stuck into the most talked about cases.

We get to know from Idaho student killings, the Delphi murders and our recent rundown of the Murdoch saga.

Last year, we also started a second weekly show, Shorthand, which is just an excuse for us to talk about anything we find interesting because it's our show and we can do what we like.

We've covered the death of Princess Diana, an unholy Quran written in Saddam Hussein's blood, the gruesome history of European witch hunting, and the very uncomfortable phenomenon of genetic sexual attraction.

Whatever the case, we want to know what pushes people to the extremes of human behavior.

Like, can someone give consent to be cannibalized? What drives a child to kill? And what's the psychology of a terrorist?

Listen to Redhanded wherever you get your podcasts and access our bonus shorthand episodes exclusively on Amazon Music or by subscribing to Wondry Plus in Apple Podcasts or the Wondry app.

Tom Anthony, welcome to Business Wars. Thank you. Glad to be here.

I think it's important to start with some context here Boeing 737.

It's really pretty amazing when you think about it. What a durable plane. It's been in service for over 50 years.

You go back, you think about when the 737 was released in the late 1960s. What was it supposed to do? What was its niche in the aviation world?
