Ok, my mistake, this guy was a Biden staffer looking to see how the new President could kill off air travel to appease AOC and her Greenies. Biden got a good start this week " Helping " the American people by killing the XL pipeline, 11,000 jobs gone and prices at the pump going up while more money flows to OPEC, just the kind of " Help " Americans need. LOL

There are more reasons than just the risk of CO-19 to not overnight in LA or San Fran like getting robbed if you're staying close to either of the Airports, happened to me in LA several years ago, same goes for Atlanta's airport

I don't think the airlines are part of any deep state BUT there is a deep state made up of career politicians, Liberal Media, unelected bureaucrats and the people like Big Tech that support that structure all for their own gain.

I agree, 2021 will still be a tough year and even when domestic travel picks back up to a decent level, International travel will be slow to return for several years and that's where the big Airlines made most of their money. Its a new world emerging in many Industries but especially the commercial aircraft world where China will add a third player to Boeing and Airbus

There is a story about a test flight on the first U2 where the pilot reported a vibration problem due to flutter, when he landed, Kelly Johnson went out on the ramp with a pair of tin snips and cut off some of the trailing edge and told him to go back up and try it. not sure if this is a true story but sounds like something Kelly would do, he and his crew were genius

Lockheed, once a designer of great passenger planes has disappeared from the commercial world along with others like Douglas and Convair, I doubt that Lockheed even owns a single one of their aircraft like the Constellation which was one of the revolutionary designs of its time.

Fire sell prices always draws buyers, Boeing will get rid of these planes sooner or later but their margin will be most likely zero or even a loss on each airframe, as the airline industry recovers, it will be in single aisle aircraft not two aisle Boring can forget the 777X, the demand will evaporate as will the market for the GE 9X engine
