Back in the day supercomputer=a computer that could do one billion operations per second. The definition has not changed however personal PC's have been hitting that mark since Apple's G4 processor. Do you consider your laptop a super computer? Or the simulator NASA runs that cost billions of dollars?
A major carrier might be by definition 1billion. However if SKW is a major carrier then why aren't they allowed to fly a 757? Why are they stuck flying REGIONAL jets?
Look bro I see your point but if the paint schemes that grace the SKW planes suddenly dropped them I don't think their next move (or subsequent 10 moves) would be to run to Boeing with an order for a few jets.
