Video makes me wonder why there isn't a center bin delete option on the 787 for premium clases., I know Boeing is planning to offer it on the 777X Oh lord no. Please keep the center bins. My bag nearly got gate checked on a Delta A350 (which has no center bins) because the J cabin bins were full. T...
Jump to postSo not sure I fully understand, but does that mean they are keep their current F suites on the 77W or are they replacing it with an improved seat in line with what other F seats look like on other carriers? It's only 160 F seats across their entire fleet of 20 773's. Pretty all F seats will be gone...

Jump to postI'm sure they weren't impressed with brand new A321s needing engine swaps, they also are a big enough airline where they can do this kind of thing.

Jump to postX4A appears to be undergoing an engine replacement in CBR. Qantas Group have a spare engine in stock, but only 1. Yes it is very very uncommon for engines to be replaced with 350 hours on them. Oh boy, your only just getting started, at my carrier (big red plus) we consistently have 1-5 of the darn...
Jump to postThe long-awaited and expected Boeing order is slowly starting to move. Apparently negotiations between Turkish Airlines and Boeing are well advanced. Contrary to earlier statements by Ahmet Bolat, up to 30 Boeing 777-9s are now to be ordered (20 firm orders and 10 options). Plus up to 75 Dreamliner...

The inaugural DTW-BWI flight on F9 is today. I ready an article stating that F9 is interested in expanding DTW alongside SEA and IND once they switch business models from an Ultra Low Cost Carrier to a hybrid with both low cost and premium services. Sounds like SY. Looks like they're putting a 321 ...
Jump to post738 3701 RTS 4/11 with new cabin 738 3702 should enter OPF 4/11 for cabin refresh Wait I thought only the original 30 73Hs (3744+) with the 2008-2009 cabins were getting modded? Seems strange that they’ve backtracked on this and seem to be modding the 2016-17 modded aircraft first. The 73Hs need th...
Jump to post1/3 of the fleet is not the correct number. Additionally that is a time bounded manufacturing issue. Newly produced powder nickel disks do not have that issue. Doubt it’s the same issue but UA and B6 have had brand new 321s blow engines less than 2 weeks in service. That engine just keeps on giving...
Jump to postI have a very hard time seeing A351s at WS haha.
Jump to postInteresting to me that the MAX 8 fleet is larger than the -9 now. Some rapid deliveries of the -8 given the head start.
Jump to postI was amazed to see that icelandair had selected p and w over cfm for their new aircraft. With 1/3 of p and w out of service with recall I would have thought it would have been certain for cfm to be selected. After all when you operate over oceans to a small isolated island reliability would be hig...

Jump to postHow is an elevator getting near a jetbridge and how fast were they moving?
Jump to postThat's not entirely true by the way. I believe some of the late 777s UA purchased were A models specifically configured and exclusively used domestically (9 of them?). They later converted some of the original A models to HD and stopped using them to Europe. Once they get to toward the end of this ...
Jump to postI highly doubt this will ever happen...but I'd love to see a domestic-configured 788 (or any 787, but the 789 and 78X capacity is such a big jump from the 321). For a non-lie flat example, Scoot has 335 seats on theirs (21 First Class-like recliners, 314 econ). ANA does 12/323, and If UA had 40F/27...

Jump to postMRJ could have really taken over the E175 market if it had panned out. Hopefully this project can turn out better. But the SpaceJet wasn't Scope compliant in the US, right?

Jump to postGreat pick. Now we know why it took so long and why it needs paint. Curious if they will paint the whole "UNITED" and top third of the airframe over again or just the part that is exposed. A spot job might show bad in a few years.
