Our Christmas meltdown cost us $1.2 billion dollars because of those reasons. We are not lighting the world on fire like we used to.

There are issues with brackets on the Max 7 and we just had a Max 8 dump into BDL because of “severe airframe vibration” which persisted on the subsequent test flight after it was “fixed”.

SWA has enough money to bleed for quite a while but it is not on a confidence building trajectory. As for the Max 7…..something’s up and it smells fishy. Should’ve gotten the A220 but of course for our management that would’ve been like putting the Space Shuttle into service as they are pathetically inept and 737-focused.
