Tweet Picks:
@AndrewTangel The FAA is considering requiring extra flight simulator training before pilots can start flying Boeing’s 737 MAX again.
@LeehamNews as if @Boeing didn’t have enough headaches: “European Union regulators investigating the $4.2bn tie-up have asked for more than 1.5m pages of information and data on over 20 years of sales campaigns, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters.”
@Satcom_Guru Letter from a prior boss Anthony (Tony) Martin Boeing Senior Manager -Retired his opinion of the leadership change and the obvious candidate to bring @BoeingAirplanes back with grace, competence, and confidence…Alan Mulally.
@Skiathian Ryanair – Flying from Vienna to Skiathos, twice weekly from 2nd May to 30th September 2020.
@SimonCalder Qatar Airways just burnt (I calculate) over 1,000 tons of fuel flying seven planes empty between the western US and Doha, and back.
