@AvWeekGuy @Airbus Grazia Vittadini CTO says ‘right now’ – despite its heritage Concorde roots – it cannot reconcile the concept of supersonic travel with longer term goals to pursue carbon neutral growth for aviation from 2020 onward. So no Mach 1+ plans from Airbus just yet #AirbusID.

@lesliejosephs Acting FAA head says no timeframe for getting the #737MAX flying again. “If it takes a year to find everything we need to give us the confidence, so be it.”
