also if t does not appear to affect the A220 P&W engines, which is a huge relief. Although they still seem to be having issues
Potentially all PW1100G variant will require the inspection

Tom Brady said we would darken the sky with A350s. Then he turned around to Ed and said "That's the big one, right"? Ed shrugged.

Folks be skeptical haha. Reminds me of when monthly AEs was announced. Many didn't want to believe it even though the contract basically made the company have to go that route.

The 350-1000 is coming to Delta, and it will surpass the 330-900 as the most beautiful jet at Delta. The triple bogey main gear returns to the Widget soon

777 was still a far superior performing and flying aircraft. Especially our (former) LRs.

Like the 787, it has a yoke. No thanks.


I get it, but DAL buys the airplanes they want. As long as they pay me I don't care about all that other stuff

In our defense, BS has said a lot of things then not done those things. Remember the opening of the LAX220....er SLC220 base? But I still won't believe it until we've had a full year of monthly bids. Things are looking good so far though.
