it's more than likely for legal reasons, however, why would the paper type"allegedly"? it's either they installed the equipment or they didn't. 'Allegedly' was used by Bloomberg because they were just repeating what the FAA said, without any independant input, while Boeing might offer a different charecterisation of the facts.

Very interesting prospects ... Air Canada might end up with mixed Airbus and Boeing narrowbody and widebody fleets ... It's already the case I think..... I was speaking of A320ceo and A330ceo replacement. After AC chose the MAX over the A320neo, many expected existing -ceo fleets to be leaving soon.

This is a bit of a strange one. Sheet says delivered to SAS but not operated by SAS ?? There have been errors in such sheets before.

I'm amazed by Calhoun's harsh criticism of his predecessor, as if the board hadn't been involved in decision-making in the last few years ...

Deal's comments about the new aircraft seem to describe 'some' NMA design ... Whether that means the same as before, or another design, or even a still undefined aircraft is unclear.
The comments about a 'freighter renewal strategy' are hardly more clear.

Congressional Report Faults Boeing on MAX Design, FAA for Lax OversightBoeing’s 737 MAX ‘design failures’ and FAA’s ‘grossly insufficient’ review slammed So, the US Congress eventually delivers 'stunning' conclusions that had been obvious for about one year ... Better late than never, or much ado about nothing ?

Why do I particularly like the second Interjet picture above ? I don't know, it could be the contrast between the sharp aircraft in the foreground and the haze in the background. Thank you, spotterxfw !

If it happens, then I'll see it as madness ... I'm certain they were serious about A380 since they "actually applied" to fly it to TPE and got denied Then, they are even more mentally ill than I thought ...
