Tick tock tick tock. I am hearing crickets.

I guess we’ll have to be patient.

Will be announced on the earnings call tomorrow.

Roger that!

It’s a mass order for the Comac C919. Much better aircraft than the CS series overall.

Edit: actually a combined order for the C919 and A330. A330 feeds the new ULCCC (ultra low cost Chinese carrier) Spirit of China.

Expect a virtual base in Beijing.

Will no longer be called the CSeries soon enough:

It's going to be an historic order of 100 A380 NEO's. 800 seats with the largest PW geared engine ever produced. The LGA to LAX route just got interesting.

What flap setting do we use for takeoff in LGA? “Config Spirit”

Meh, we’ll just use the ole seaport and put the 380’s on floats.

A sharpie yellow A380 would be repelled by the earth. Flaps one would be sufficient.

As for the earnings call and aircraft order....wah wah wah wu wha wu wha wha (Price is Right fail theme)

Nope. Still good. Must not have gotten all the "i's" dotted and the "t's" crossed before the call.

I've been gone from NK for just under a month now and my contacts there are solid.

Looks like we’re keeping all but one 319 now, so there’s that. 177 planes by 2021.
