@ByERussell NEW: The DC-area’s @Dulles_Airport and @Reagan_Airport served a record 50.6 million travelers in 2023, or 25.1 million and 25.5 million respectively.
@dominicgates Sneaked into the FAA reauthorization bill: a 5-year life extension for Boeing’s 767 freighter that was due to expire at the end of 2027 due to a new international emissions standard. Scoop by @jonostrower and @willguisbond.
@globalairlines There’s no such thing as a sure thing in aviation and a huge thanks must go to @YMXAirport and @GPAPassenger airports, who respectively, allowed us to refuel before our first transatlantic voyage and offered up somewhere to land and park when arriving in Europe. We are so grateful. #a380 #Airbus #ThankYou.
@jonostrower SCOOP from @theaircurrent: Buried deep inside the FAA reauthorization is a provision that (without mentioning Boeing) will give its 767 freighter five more years of production, even though it doesn’t meet ICAO emissions standards the U.S. has codified.
