Tweets of the day:
@LeighGiangreco Boeing CEO & Trump laud American manufacturing at ceremony where plane’s parts come from 8 other countries.
@MarcusReports Little chance of the new Air Force One being a 787 because it only has two engines. The @usairforce likes redundancy. 747 has four engines.
@SeanFionn Why charge for new Dublin runway in short term when it’s a long lived asset? Q from S Kavanagh CEO @AerLingus #aviationconf.
@Sustainable2050 Amsterdam Schiphol Airport saw number of passengers grow by 9% last year, due to cheap kerosene. Tax-free and with 0 carbon price, that is.
@winglets747 Chengdu-Auckland, for perspective, is slightly longer (6,528 miles) than Auckland-Los Angeles (6,504 miles).
