I vacation in Southern New Jersey every summer and numerous times I have seen several aircraft (mostly regionals) originating from New York fly over me at FL050-070. I remember last year seeing a DL CRJ9 flying over the beach really low and was confused when I searched it and its was following its n...

This shift in strategy by NK is very intriguing. It seemed like they wanted to provide more capacity on routes with ordering the A320neo and more A321s. Then they decided against selling off some of their A319s and they even acquired two more. And now this possible interest in the E2/C-Series. I'm v...

Jump to postJust confirming: 5DK (N692AA) will be the oldest AA aircraft following imminent MD-80 and 763 retirement? AA was using A319 on MIA-SEA which is longer than DFW-UIO.

Jump to postAnd here is the apparent damage to one of the windows.
Holy cow
Lot's of damage to the engine and some to the wing.
Saw a report saying jet engine parts went straight through one of the windows and hit a woman. Also caused rapid depressurization.
Pretty terrifying if true.
We currently have L-US A319s and A320s operating our PIT-DFW flights alongside MD-80s. Last month, we had a 738 on CLT-PIT.
I remember looking at FR24 last night and seeing DFW-JAX on a L-US A320 and DFW-BOS on a L-US A321 while also seeing a 738 operating CLT-STL/IAH.
other than n834ae and n853ae, what other e140 are still in old american paint? I saw 800 and 833 at DFW. (Was on 800, 833 was next door on the stinger.) I also got a partial, either 815 or 816. (I'm sure about the 81 part, just not sure about the last digit. It was hard to make out in the evening t...

Jump to postIt was previously mentioned WN would be adding a second flight to both BNA and STL on Sundays.

Jump to postWhy hasn't anyone identified the fact that Delta has a monopoly on the PIT - MSP route? Delta is the ONLY airline that has a direct flight.

Jump to postWell it looks like DL is dropping their paltry PIT-MCO flight as it's being zeroed out in OAG for August. Also checked DL's website for February (the other month it operates) and nothing turns up. Extremely unsurprising as it was 1x weekly on a CRJ and yields must've been trash with WN, NK, F9, and ...

Seems like AA is going for a nearly all-Boeing widebody fleet with the exception of the A332s of course. I'm really surprised they went with the 788 and not the 78J. Wonder if AA have some sort of expansion plans in the works with these new aircraft. AA after all could fill some existing holes that ...

Jump to postI saw today that the airport was using 28R and 32 for arrivals this afternoon while 28L was being used for departures.
