That guy is an idiot. I had to listen no further than him telling how an airbus is alot different than a Boeing so the training would be very expensive due to that fact . if he knows nothing about type rating's and Training I doubt he knows anything else about the Airline industry


It did look like he made that video in his moms basement.

So you're saying SWA isn't going to incur a signifigant extra cost by adding a different type to their fleet?

Clickbait article headline followed by video rehashing stuff most people already know. Yawn.

That's correct. Because SWA isn't adding a 2nd fleet type.

Exactly. When SWA adds another type, it will be because they are sundowning the 737. The only cost advantage SWA has left is being a single type carrier and keeping costs under control is job numero uno for the BOD right now since SWA is not going to get a significant revenue boost anytime soon.

What a naïve and ignorant question. All airlines incur cost when changing status quo . Like I said before, that video was made from someone living in their mother's basement . That says it all about the guy .

Posting an obscure youtube link to a non expert source without even bothering to post a discussion of it is the weakest form of trolling.

SWA isn't going anywhere. To suggest otherwise is insane.

When are they going to remove this obvious troll from this site?
