Plus who knows how many CA’s have become HUD cripples ;).
I hate that we're technically supposed to use it for every take off and landing. It should be our discretion unless operationally necessary kind of like SWA.

I remember, and it also had the added bonus of a semipermeable layer of crumbs and dust that kept you from actually touching the screen.

MAX 10 has cleared its test points for the re-re-engineered cowl anti ice. It's with the FAA now for final approval. Once the FAA signs off on it (or sends them back to the drawing board for a third time) the final testing points can be cleared up which makes cert very possible in 2026.

So if the plan was to ramp up hiring to cover the 100 jets we're getting, but we're already behind the curve and ramped up to maximum hiring, how's that going to play out?

we may have. I know we talked about how they might handle our max training.

either way, hopefully some nice movement on the 737 coming soon.
