Tweet Picks:

@JenniferHomendy Urging  @FAANews  to equip all airplanes with 25-Hour CVRs, not just newly manufactured planes. We first issued this #safety recommendation in 2018 after an Air Canada plane nearly landed on four planes on a taxiway at SFO. The Air Canada plane came within 100 feet of one of the planes and its passengers.

@KGWNews Boeing ‘under a microscope’ following door plug blow out, Buttigieg tells KGW.

@MaxK_J This is a great illustration from  @kev_andrew . Another XLR identifier when you can’t see the flaps deployed is the absence of the inboard double-slotted flap-tracks which are obviously not required for the single-slotted arrangement on #A321XLR.

@R_Wall Airbus CEO says A321XLR EIS now in Q3 rather than Q2, but adds most customer deliveries remain on schedule.
