The Super Hornet Story

I will be doing a series of posts that tell the real story of the Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet . It is a story of an aircraft that is “good enough” if one uses the standard of Clint Eastwood as Dirty Harry in the movie Magnum Force . That is: “Man's...

United Pulls Out of Palmdale as Quickly as Possible

Let’s stick this one in the “I told you so” file. Back in June, I said, “I’m sure that the second that subsidy is gone, United is out of there.” I was right. United started flying to Palmdale on June 7, 2007 and committed...

Spirit Brings Ads to Overhead Bins, Bulkheads, and More

To be honest, I’m really surprised that it took this long for an airline to do this, but if anyone was going to take the plunge, it’s Spirit. The airline has decided that it’s time to plaster aircraft interiors with advertising. Welcome...

Airline Flying Isn’t Like a Bus … It is a Bus

Spanair Aircraft Did Not Have Flaps Deployed; Not Necessarily the Cause of the Accident

The preliminary report is in, and it appears that the Spanair aircraft that crashed on takeoff last month did not have its flaps extended. While it’s not clear if this was actually the cause of the accident, if it were, it would be eerily similar...

Lufthansa Buys Stake in Brussels Airlines, Looks at Alitalia

“The Germans marched into Brussels today as they discussed further cooperation with the Italians.” I can’t say I ever thought that statement would be looked upon favorably, but that’s exactly what we’re seeing now. Yesterday...
