I have to say if I'm going to go @3300nm rather do it in this than the 737.

I’ll do you one better, 5 years ago they announced straps behind the Ca seat to secure a bag on non-2 jump planes. Instead we have those ridiculous straps that nobody can use

Well, we have a few days left. Hoping for a great deal to close out the show. Probably some tough negotiating going on...

The closed to the public trading days are done as of today. I think a lot of you will be disappointed when this weekend is over.

EIGHT years ago in new hire training- we were told “AQP is RIGHT around the corner!!”

The MAX issues have Boeing upside down. The NMA launch we be delayed until the MAX is back in the air.

Airbus launched the A321 XLR to deal with the NMA.

Who knows if Boeing will even develop the NMA considering the market share Airbus is getting and bad press Boeing is getting.

Any aircraft order for Spirit has become very complicated given all the various factors. It may be some time before any order is announced.

I wonder if Boeing will significantly delay the 797 for the time being. They have to fix and prove once again that the MAX is a good aircraft, they are also trying to finish the 777X and they had a few issues with the Air Force tanker. I don´t know if their BOD would be wanting to sink so much capital on a brand new clean sheet aircraft.
