FAA admits staffing issues, asks airlines for help

23 March 2023 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

This 737 belly won't be going to Doha, but Canada Jetlines hopes it can eventually operate the route

Starlink shines on JSX

13 March 2023 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

The Starlink antenna is barely noticeable atop the JSX Embraer E145

Of course it works; this was a media demo flight, after all. But the fact that the Starlink internet service works so well on the JSX fleet was never a sure thing; the program had a few hiccups along the way. But the overall performance was impressive, and in a couple ways that were true differentiators from competing solutions.

24 February 2023 By Seth Miller Leave a Comment

So many gorgeous IFE screens on board this new United Airlines 737 MAX 8, plus hundreds more aircraft to come

Three airlines made announcements this week around fees for kids to sit with their parents. Almost certainly driven by a push for regulations, is it enough to hold that off??
