The entire thread above?
Of course it's a fact that they canned the 350 orders and program. I remember the sim sitting in GSW training the initial cadre.
But everyone still acts like that happened yesterday and that they didn't fire the guy who led the charge to make that call. Vasu did that in 2018 and was fired last year. He did damage to our airline that will take at least a decade to repair.
Will they order 350's? More 78's? 77X? Who knows, but everyone acts like it is a certainty that we're going to shrink the widebody fleet with absolutely zero evidence to support it other than a gut feeling.
We fawn over DAL and UAL while the bulk of their widebody fleets are 25+ years old too.
