it would have been educational to have this article available to read, but i am not willing to remove my adblocker just for the chance to do so. Unfortunate this is not set up for those of us who dislike the avalanche of ads on our systems and have done something simple to remove them.

this behemouth was striking and imposing in its day, flying just off the surface of a body of water. Imagine the Marines having dozens of them assaulting some shore somewhere. The fear factor would be terriffic. I recall seeing video of this thing and remember the consternation it caused in me as i imagined what the russians might do with lots of these against our troops some where. Then as now i remember the russians operate with a heightened sense of bluster nearly all the time. Not always though...

in comparison with 777 and airbus-1000, this sleek, pretty aircraft is a loser. What airline needs the capacity, the diminished range and all the design baggage from being a russian airliner in contrast to boeing or airbus offerings tailored to the market as it is and will be later? i believe that answer is no one nowhere.

the nice thing about this deserved punishment is that she will never have to go through a TSA check-in inspection ever again. No airline ought to sell her a seat. She also should have to face assault charges on an inflight personnel, and that sounds kinda federal to me.

jet blue is perfect for this airbs 220 and will be rewarded with higher profitability returns someday soon, when passenger counts increase and return to nearly the pre-covid numbers. I wish Southwest airlines would join the party and put 200 or more of these planes into service and hit new markets of secondary cities.

i am not alone in having microchip-distrust-syndrome, meaning any moron who thinks cogent people will willingly submit to any unmanned system of Britten-Norman or any other maker is mistaken. the future of british air transport is elsewhere from this hairbrained extrapolation. Machines and chips break, human pilots also make mistakes, so have two pilots upfront and that is the bare minimum for me and perhaps 90% of potential air travelers. the remaining 10% are too much involved in their cellphones to notice the lack of human pilots. By the way, who is doing the inflight announcements?

a sexy older woman, not voluptous really, just wearing a skimpy top has all kinds of folks in a tizzy. Nice move by the captain , limiting the silliness. Nice move by southwest refunding her air fare. Lines have been drawn, and more things to cover up have been made clear to us all. This example of a closet exibitionist got far more publicity then needed, and she got to be all huffy on camera speaking on her own behalf, overly self-righteously may i add.

southwest has the opportunity to open the books fully, adjust the salaries at the top of the scale first, and act for the greater good of the line employees in a public manner, a first in the airline industry and one of the first in american industrial history. This would be a huge step in mutual trust and accomodation for the good of labor and management. If any airline could make this step, southwest is at the top of the list. Watch and see what happens.

Miami International goes against the grain of southwest destinations because of the ground time required in operations. Now with reduced flights everywhere, that is not so evident.
