Week 10 Free Post: Mechanical Engineers Should Have Responsibility, Feel Sorry to MH 370

     

      My mood is very heavy when I am writing this blog for this week’s free post. When I wake up today and watched morning news, the airplane MH370 crashed has been confirmed and there is no one survival! I feel so sorry to the tragedy, let’s stand up, take off our hats and offer a moment of silence for the dead.

       I am not going to talk about who is the true one should take responsible for this tragedy because It doesn’t relate to mechanical engineer and I don’t really have mood to talk about this, it is about 239 lives and 154 people are Chinese, they are dead for no reason but an airplane crush. They are innocent people who don’t need to pay their lives for such this tragedy.

       Well, as the blog I posted for engineering code of ethics, mechanical engineers should have responsibility because everything we have made and repaired are related to human lives. As we know, before a plane takes off, at least a group of mechanical engineers should check whether there is something going wrong with the plane itself and fuel or not, please always take your responsibility with you because it is all about human lives and their family’s happiness. Like in MH370, I have heard that there is a man who wants to return to home because he made some money and take away pressure of his family; many people just try to reunion with their families and someone just want to take a break, but the plane crash takes away their lives, also it takes away their family’s hope and happiness.  

       Every mechanical engineers, please remember that although professionalism is important to us, we can never lose our responsibility, if we don’t want to see the innocent people die for stupid plane crash; if we don’t want to see the sad faces, take our responsibility with us!
