First flight in a single was an M20J. What an intro to flight!

Chineese money is not patient. Don't hold your breath other than for another equity firm buying the assets but as time goes by, it will be harder to sell off. Guaranteed they have been trying to unload quietly (?) behind the scenes. Really too bad.

Good synopsis Ken. Just not enough people looking up at the sky anymore. Least of all, with amazement.

John, I think that you have touched on a silent underlying issue that being profits. Boeing's main customers are not the airlines nor the people they in turn serve. The number one customer to Boeing, or Airbus, etc., is the shareholder. Drive costs down (outsource, cut corners, etc) to reduce hard costs and automate as much as possible in order to keep training costs down. Sad but the reality of free enterprise. The Max issue will simply a speedbump in time while the drive towards autonomous commercial aircraft continues. My 2 cents worth.

It's all about money guys, not technology!

Damage to frame / pressure dome (?) must be significant enough to warrant repair on site approach vs quick ferry. Anyway, gear issues identified which makes repair on site the only option.

Bit surprised. Thought they would cannibalize for parts for the rest of the fleet. Nice to see that they are giving her a second life! BUT its all about money and it seems the bean counters have determined that it's a thumbs-up!

This turd of a president just wants to leave footprints for the next generation. Unparalleled ego and nothing else. Can not even negotiate himself out of a paper bag. Suspect he will be long gone by the time they get to painting the jets.
