@AirlineFlyer “UK investigators believe evacuation simulations for aircraft certification are inadequate, and should be adapted to provide a more realistic model of passenger behaviour, particularly regarding retrieval of cabin baggage.”
@AirlineFlyer .@united says it is now using a UV-C handheld light to sanitize the flight deck “on most aircraft at its hub airports” to ensure that pilots have a safe working space. Good move, as that’s a very high touch space.
@FAANews The FAA is proposing to mandate certain design changes for the @Boeing #737Max airplane before the aircraft can return to service. The public comment period ends on September 21.
@kambrmedia .@AmericanAir ‘s strategic partnership with @JetBlue is designed to stimulate both carriers’ Northeast air travel business amid immediate and long-term challenges to demand and loyalty stemming from the global #pandemic. Airplane #covid19 #aviation.
@kambrmedia “Most #airlines will not survive a second grounding. But we must understand that a solution is possible to this paradigm – and it must ultimately be clinically-led.” – Brendan McKittrick, Aeroband. Airplane #aviation #covid19.
