N78060 operating UA 37 EDI-EWR declared an emergency and landed at SNN without incident.
Rescue aircraft will be N76065 operating UA2751 EWR-SNN and will be UA3049 for the return
United is lucky to have “some” slack in their wide body fleet right now with all the PW 772s returning to service.
They’re already at EWR too, this was an expansion of their current operations. Ummm we don't see prime air flights at EWR that I am aware of. No 5Y or 8C 767s or SY 737s either. FX and 5X have decent sized operations (FX being the larger with a regional hub), Daily Amerijet to San Juan, Daily North...
Jump to postIdk much about this Newark deal, but the HQ2 deal was bad. Amazon did not need all those concessions to come here. Amazon is already at JFK, perhaps they will continue to grow there, instead? They’re already at EWR too, this was an expansion of their current operations. Ummm we don't see prime air ...
Jump to postDrove through EWR the other night, it looks like the Jetways are gone off the A-1 satellite (at least on the former WN side) and there's a new fork in the approach roadway which will take you over to the new frontage roads. It also looks like the tri-color logo that represents the current 1970s ter...
Jump to postI honestly don't know if the flag pole will make a reappearance on top of the new gate 17 jetbridge. It makes sense to take it down in a ceremonial way as A1 is going to be demolished in order to finish the new building. There will be a "permanent" memorial at historic building 1 which wil...
Jump to postActually I believe it's 12 of 40 completed with the new 116/160 configuration on 752. Of those 9 are flying, so today flying units are 9 new config of 17 in service. 2 16/160 units still in ROW and 1 in RTS maint. at GSO. 3 old config units should return soon from RTS maint and paint. Hopefully the...

Jump to postIs United going back to using terminal A at Newark. I was checking in for my flight tomorrow, Aug 1st, and it’s scheduled to leave from Gate A28 (UA 4396).

Jump to postCorrect. Third 757 to be repainted and first to be in the regular Evo-blue. 753 and 764 are the last remaining fleets with nothing in the new scheme. Don’t believe any of the 788’s have been painted yet either. Could be wrong though. Yup, you're right. Mainline: non-ER 739, 753, 764, 788. Express: ...

Jump to postUA has access to gate space at TPA, MCO and RSW that can support more flying than they are doing at the moment. Certainly nothing on the scale of a hub, but additional flying within the existing footprint of gates, fleet and employees is probably what United is envisioning. ... MCO will have a lot ...
Jump to post3127 might have more surface area *without* paint than with, at least on the starboard side! Some of the 777s are looking a little ragged, too. 3127 is N48127 Here is a photo from 7 months ago (Dec 2020). 6297699 In 7 months, it’s gotten much worse. I’ve seen it at EWR a few times lately, including...
Jump to postLooks like UA is trying to get the 752 fleet back in service with 4 currently in maintenance after being parked. Is there any word of being able to get enough back online so they can start cycling some through the paint shop? 3127 might be the worst I have seen in a while.
Jump to postHello everyone, I've been pretty quiet on the forums for the past year plus given my career on the frontlines of the pandemic...

Jump to postOr perhaps they can hold off demolishing existing Terminal A. It doesn't seem like the old terminal is in the way of the new terminal as far as construction goes (I could be wrong) but B6 seems to made itself a nice home there in the meantime. Sort of like how UA used to exist back in the 90s befor...
Jump to postThe new terminal wants to be all mainline, I thought this was just a UA thing? AC will be an issue then. Rumor has it all mainline narrowbody gates for the new terminal.

Jump to postAC is now mostly mainline on the BCS3 to YYZ with Montreal still showing up a lot as a Jazz mixture. F9 plans to restart growth at EWR in the next year or so. Their plans are to look at EWR growth after finishing up ATL and TPA. Two gates for them is not going to be enough. Their load factors are de...
Jump to postI don't see UA really taking 20 of the 33 gates at the new terminal. Can't leave 12 gates for AA, DL, AC, B6.. AC needs 2 maybe 3. DL needs probably 3. B6 is not going to be happy with 3-4 gates in the new terminal. I don't see B6 wanting to operate out of multiple areas like they are right now. B6 ...

Jump to postAlthough no final decision has been made yet I'm hear there is a strong possibility the entire GE 77E fleet will be reactivated.

Jump to postWouldn't the better option to bring more GE 772s online vs 764s if the lift from those frames is needed; especially considering the number of pilots affected?
Jump to postGreat, thx for info team. I guess this is part of the beauty of having a 13,000 ft runway (28R). Are there any other similar setups at any other US airports, i.e. where departing flights launch from somewhere other than a threshold? I've been flying for years and I've never seen it. Denver maybe? M...
Jump to postI know paint lines have basically been dead since the pandemic began, but one has to assume something has to start up again.
Has anyone seen 791ua recently? Poor plane has more bare skin showing than painted skin at this point. Likely one of the worst I have seen in many years.
So far seems really interesting: UPS doesn't appear to be taking on as much early on. Remember last year having 2 Western Global's at EWR every day along with the Atlas 747. Makes me wonder if the enlarged fleet (about 7 767s and 5 748s) when compared to last year will limit what is seen. Assuming t...

Delta is sharing B1 with NK right now. I do think NK on B1 has allowed them to grow nicely as they have a bit more space in that WN area.

Jump to postAny idea on what the gate lease situation look like for Terminal 1? While I personally like to see B6 get as many gates as possible, I really just want to see any other domestic carriers that care to expand (like NK or F9) get sufficient gates for expansion. I hate EWR being such a captive market. ...

Any additional updates on the stranded planes. Seems like the 320s make sense at Spirit. Makes me wonder if Delta or Frontier will want to jump on any and if Air Canada is interested in picking up a few more for their update or expand321 fleet.
