Jump to posthere is all i care about: will the new airline be in one world or star alliance?
Jump to postjust a thought, but why not put a screen infront of engine intakes? could it be designed in such a way that it was strong enough to stop an ingestion but thin and light enough not to affect performance?
Jump to postone thing i've always wanted was the option to view out the front windows while flying -- perhaps as a channel on your PTV. it would be great to sort of see where you are going, like driving a car.
Jump to postjust my two cents, but i always found UA crew to be extremely helpful and a bit less jaded. CO always seemed cold and "new york" to me.
Jump to postof course what she said was insensitive, but was it in any way correct? is the superjet not meeting expectations at this point? i'm purely curious -- not trying to flame.

Jump to postwhat was the relationship, if any, between the 727 and the caravelle?
Jump to postnot sure why people would fret about this. we may also be driving porche 911s for the rest of our lives. but to say that the first is anything like the latest would be a joke. the same can basically be said about the 737, only since it's a passneger aircraft, its evolution is in efficiency, safety, ...

Jump to postok, so here's the major logistical problem: that road that goes between the beach and the fence heads back to a very exclusive neighborhood called beacon hill and is the only way to get there. you simply cannot get rid of the road. in fact, i believe the road is privately owned by the members of the...
Jump to postlet's be honest here... those at the beach WANT the planes to take off as close to the fence as possible. and they want landings that barely skim the fence. that's the thrill of it. that's why people go. so to say that this woman got anything other than exactly what she wanted is ridiculous. if she ...
Jump to posthaving done that myself a few times, i have to say that the 737s and A319s were the worst... much worse than the 747 and A340s. the 757s were bad, but not as bad as they could have been because (i think) much of the worst part of the blast is above you. the smaller jets with their engines a few feet...

Jump to posti find it hard to believe that a million miler didn't think to go to the RCC or a customer service desk away from the gate and book himself on a different flight. i would have done that after the second delay, let alone the sixth. he also could have demanded to be put on a different carrier. i've ha...
