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.

Debt free airline? What's that?

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!

Thanks in no small part to a) management incompetence, b) government largesse, c) Boeing and their "Trumped-up" trade war.

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.

She is lucky CP didn't refer this to the police for fraud. It's not too far off from faking a boarding pass. Great story.

Great idea but it only works when you book after the baby.

"The last plane was delivered debris free". Something seriously wrong this picture if that's a highlight.

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.

And some people wonder why the west doesn't accept many countries' doctors as being "real" doctors when they emigrate.
