Is it just the age ....that caused the jets to fall
from the sky ?

I think it is more than just age. A structural
failure, according the their own experts,,,is
what caused it to drop from the sky like lead.

It is like the lead paint on China made toys. But the
jets costs hundreds of millions each.
A very expensive toy.

why is singapore ordering it last year.

Like the US, Singapore believe in buying
expensive toy (flawed) for our airforce.
