Why would we need tray tables? You can eat a 20 dollar bill by hand.

You still need a tray table or if you're a savage, a maintenance can. Eating a $20 bill by hand without mixing Cholula with some mayo and spices first is just uncivilized.

PRO TIP: Break it into 4x fives so you don’t have to eat it all at once.

the yoke is a Boeing thing, it’s not going away.

A lot of people said the same thing about Gulfstream.

Sounds like there is FINALLY a light at the end of the tunnel for the MAX 7 and 10, hopefully we can start getting these things maybe at the end of next year!

What will it be? 7 years old when they certify it?

ie how many are we getting / month once certified.
Im sure this is what spawned the hiring. Boeing doesn't take a poop without the airlines knowing ahead of time.

Who knows at this point. It's going to take some time for Boeing to spin tooling back up for the 7, get fuelsages manufactured, etc. Even if the 7 is certified tomorrow, it would be maybe another 9-12 months before we see one on property.

All I know is is that if we decide to take on the 7s already built, pay full price for them, and NOT have Boeing perform a D check on them before we take delivery then we truly are run by morons.
