Boeing moves more 787 work from Washington

Boeing will move engineering work for the 787 Dreamliner from the Puget Sound area. Here's what we know.

Oh trust me - Jon knows Lori us awesome!

I can confirm there are no purple seats (Premium Plus!) on any narrow body aircraft 😉

@loriara.bsky.social is the transportation QUEEN!

RJs? Nope.

E170s and E175s? Oh yeah.

I was on an older Republic plane tonight and zero complaints!

Unpopular opinion:

I think a premium economy seat on an E175 is one of the best narrow body rides in the sky.

I would put it up there with the 321neo.

Ample leg room and shoulder room. Nicely sized windows. 10/10 would E175 again.

Today is a great day to support journalism you trust.

I thought you all just might need some boops

I know it’s not the same but you belong right here with us plane nerds

One of the first things I did when I moved to DC 21 years ago was subscribe to the print edition of the Washington Post.

Sad day.

That’s what the plane home is for!

I just pulled my first all nighter since college.

It was fueled by coffee and gummies, and not the good kind.

I have a vague recollection of eating a bag of Cheetos at 2:30 AM.

There is only one acceptable lunch option at ORD.

I am really gutted for my friends at the Washington Post.

I guess I can cancel my subscription now. I have no need for a newspaper without reporters.

And then someone could use the chair to hold their shoveled out parking spot!

@airlineflyer.net it is 12,000° in my hotel room in Chicago. And the window doesn’t open.

I have turned off the HVAC

Also that 321neo is so so nice. Such a great ride.

Ohh I wanna come! I will take a domestic widebody #WeekendatBlaines

No disagreement. Love it here.

Me in December to my colleagues in Chicago: “See you all in the spring when it warms up!”

Me now:

This is DCA!

It’s warmer there than it is here 😬

First business trip of the year, and I am so out of practice I forgot my winter hat and my water bottle.

Luckily just a quick hop to ORD for a few days…

This is my A319 - has been a hot minute since I flew on one!

Same issue in Alexandria - every intersection in our pedestrian friendly neighborhood looks like this

The machine at IAD - and only IAD - has been hating my boots. I just proactively take them off now.

The FAA finalized its 25-hour CVR rule this morning. Any aircraft manufactured after 16 May 2026 operating under Part 121 (ie commercial ops) with 30+ seats must include a 25-hour CVR.

Retrofits of existing planes will *NOT* be required.

This is so excellent! I love airports that have that program. Also glad the delayed flight wasn’t mine 😂

CLE hasn’t changed a bit since my childhood lol

I dunno how they’re opening schools here tomorrow. Sidewalks are hit or miss and intersections are basically uncrossable on foot. #Snowcrete

There were kids ice skating on the snowcrete at Mt Vernon Community School yesterday!

haha very fair
