A380 and the likes of the 747s are like patiences That are terminally ill with an appearance of return to health only to be followed with death. Only thing the Jumbos and Super Jumbos are good for is Freight. Like the Railroads Airlines will eventually go much deeper into Freight and less into passangers as the Business traveler disappears from the flying public. Next on the very soon horizon will be the Mach 1+ passanger aircraft for the high end traveler and the remaining executive business travelers that have to travel to do business. In the mean time any thing larger then the 737 Max and A320s will suffer in sales and maybe go the way of the Jumbos and not even be made. I can see that both Boeing and Airbus building all freight Jumbo size haulers that do not have to go Mach 1+ to meet the future of aircraft. Keep an eye on Spacex and it's Heavy lifter Starship merge into the have to fly business travaler. Spacex Starship will answer the question is 30 to 45 min travel NY to T

Assembly lines are done and even the 787 and other Wide Body 2 engine airliners and not have robust sales. The A320/737 size airliners are out saleing the larger airlines by nearly 10 to 1 and as the transition from Business passangers to vacationing passangers I can see even larger airliner assembly lines changing over to the A320/737 size. this will likely continue until the Mach 1+ airliners break into the market for very long flights, NY to Tokyo, London to Sidney and others current 4hr+ routes. Keep an eye on SpaceX and it's Starship passanger Rocket program as possible really big game changer.

this guy is clueless just like the entire CCP compromised illegal regime that this guy is part of.

Now that Boeing has the 737 Max autopilot controls fixed I believe this will become the dominate airline purchased over the next decade. The market is beginning to change and the Jumbo and Widebody airliners are in the waining years as most airlines move to the 737 and A320 size. It appears that these 2 aircraft are the ideal size for a flexing and chaotic passanger load. I see on the horizon the decline in sales of the other then 737 and A320s. The ratio in 2022 is nearly 10 to 1. I believe this will continue until the next generation of Faster, Higher flying Mach 1+ airliners hit the market in the next decade.

All electric aircraft with out onboard fossil fueled generators is a fanasty other then for Joy rides of very nich needs. Fossil Fueled Aircraft as today will be with us for at least the next 100 yrs and I can see Methane and Hydrogen becoming part of the Fuel mix especially for Suborbital and very low earth orbital flights, New York to Tokyo or London to Sydney. When someone builds a drown with a Gas Turbine Generator powering 4+ electric motor Ducked Fans then maybe we have a passanger DRone that will will make it into the interCity taxi service. Only an Elon Musk type will have the foresight to develop such a Aircraft during this silliness of a Green Energy future. The only real reliable renewable fuel is Hydrogen or Methane produced by decaying waste and there is no enough of that yet.

This is a training issue or a distraction issue by the flight crew. My experience is that all run ways are clearly marked at both end with the Run Way Compass heading, in this case 22. Also when you turn on to a run way and line up you always should check with both the Magnetic Compass and Gyro Compass and the Run way to see that everything matches. And Then the White Stips marking the end of the Runway. The entire Airline's Flight crews should be sent back to Ground taxing school to get refresh with taxing especially at major Airports where the Taxi ways can get confusing.

This tells me that the Pilots did not do a physical pre-flight of the outside of the Aircraft. In Fact the FAA should require every commercial flight to be performed with both the Pilot and the Maintenance Foreman to walk down the Aircraft together before the engines start.

Thank you, so this is not all that uncommon????

The weather here in Florida when the front came through was pretty intense in places. Never blame an Airline when canceling due to weather. Got Time to Spare, Go by Air. There are Old pilots and Bold pilots but there are few if any Old Bold pilots.

I was suprised that they did not give Aircraft make and Model. Bad Glass, incorrect instalation, Design flaw. I lean bad Glass.
