To be fair, Fliegerfaust is not what you would exactly call unbiased reporting. But the fact is, as a Canadian I would buy anything before I would buy Boeing at this point. And when it comes to buying the F-18 or the F-35, I wouldn't buy either. The F-35 is an overpriced POS. We should take Gripen, Typhoon, or anything else. Trump screwed us, and I'm not forgetting it.
Im not very happy with AC right now. I booked a flight to Ft. Lauderdale at the end of Feb for a flight at the end of March. If I cancel they keep about 75% of the fare and fees or I could get a credit to be used in the next 9 months. They will probably cancel the flight but send me emails to ask if I want to cancel. They are playing a game of chicken to see who cancels first. If they cancel first they have to give me a full refund. Canada has practically banned cross border trips and non-essential flying, but good ole Air Canada still won't offer unconditional refunds. You suck AC!
A lot of people don't know that the 757 tooling and complete line was destroyed by Boeing when the program was shuttered. I don't know exactly why they do this. Perhaps so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands when it gets moth-balled. In any case, it means the 757 is never going to get built again.
We have 2 Canadian citizens on China's death row on trumped up charges because we executed an arrest warrant on a Huawei executive. China has been off my bucket list for decades.
