Be safe Starke County Indiana! Tornado ripping through my home town. Knox, Hamlet, Grovertown.
I find your shared frustration mildly helpful as I sit on the ramp nauseous after a particularly bumpy arrival into San Diego. On the positive side, I've discovered a new mild case of claustrophobia I didn't know I had, so... there's that.
It's row 10 on an A321-something. I can't see out the window to see the engines, but there is an L2 door so very likely a CEO. I think they only had a handful of early neos with mid-cabin doors.
My Main Cabin Extra "window" seat. Fool me once...
Love it! Now just add those "flights" to TKI next year, and I will be a happy frequent Land-Liner!
Player two just entered the messaging game. Player one has been there a long time.
I can't help but think that all of this could have been avoided if we had chosen better words for "trade deficit."
Did you miss the Cranky Network Awards presented by Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport this year? Our first, short wrap-up video is live. This is just a quick hit but stay tuned for a longer one featuring winners in the near future. youtu.be/QvMISGNadY4
Southwest execs no longer run Southwest. This is the value extraction we expected from Elliott. Another sad day, indeed.
That was one of our favorites. Hope you enjoy!
Please keep sharing these kind of stories, Brian. Normally we wouldn't hear them in the mass of messaging we're inundated with, but this made my day.

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment
Embraer already offers a great narrowbody that airlines aren't rushing to buy. Sounds more like customers venting at Boeing and Airbus.
We've been writing about this for years. How can we have a shortage of aircraft with so many parked? This is how.

Ah, the proverbial old guy who doesn't like sitting in different seats at church. Every church has one. Congrats. You're it.
Having combined pine needles with fire during a more pyromania period in my past, those fireworks make me nervous... or excited. I can't decide.
I don't think people fully appreciate just how much new tech burnout there is. This isn't about the CSeries, which has its own problems. It's about the neo and MAX, which were supposed to be the easy changes. For the first time in aviation history, old tech is more economical.
