Why is everyone so dead-set on WN having a major operation at DFW? Why would they want to make DFW as large, if not larger than their DAL operation? They may have stronger following and brand loyalty in Dallas than in any other market. It makes sense they could quickly turn a profit by expanding in...

Is inter-island flying every 20 minutes or so even possible with a 737 NG or 737 MAX? I remember reading that the cool down time is far too long, and that the RR BR715 on the 717 is one of the few engines that can do it. I think it will look different than it does today... somewhat less frequency. ...

While maybe well intended, your assessment is flawed and dramatic. Boeing isn’t going anywhere. That may be the case but.... if Boeing doesn't make the changes for the better now, and I mean N O W.....

I have a question in regards to the continued maintenance programs of large ships like this. Do they undergo the same types of checks that commercial aircraft do, like A checks, C checks, D checks and structural inspections with a specified time frame to complete said check?

I wonder where these rumors are coming from that Southwest is looking to merge with another carrier.

Jump to postThere are many (here and outside of A.net) who fail to see the bigger picture, and quickly blame Boeing directly for mishap. Of course, it is a Boeing aircraft, a 24 year old 737-800, not even a Max airplane. This issue with the panel in question has nothing to do with Boeing, at all. This is a dire...
