You're right, who needs those government regulators. Let the private industry do it unsupervised! The FAA allowed Boeing to design and SELF CERTIFY the MCAS system, what could go wrong?!?

Yeah but that does not really help your argument since the government let them do it. And really with the current FAA staffing issues I’m not sure they are a shining example of excellence.
But you do need a balance between government and pvt industry.

No, you need proper oversight in safety -sensitive industries. The private industry just won't do it themselves, they just won't.

Can't imagine JB will be buying any NK deliveries while deferring A-321 deliveries until 2028. Any thoughs on how this affects total numbers of planes on property at the ends of 2024 and 2025 and what mix of planes?

my EOY 2025 fleet guess is:
110-125 or so A320s
63 A321CEOs
40-45 321NEOs (mix of HD, LD, LR)
60-65 A220s
0 190s
