That's entirely possible.

The Moxy order just went in at Farnborough, 60 A220-300's. While the announcement doesn't name the airline yet it does have David Neeleman's name attached to it.

My cousin got married last weekend and held his reception at the Hangar Flight Museum as he and his wife met at WestJet. It was amazing.

Lockheed Martin LM-100J does a full loop at the Farnbourough air show. So cool to see such a large plane do something like this. (Skip to 1:43 if you don't want to watch the whole video)

Bigtime, what was that black jet that came in today around 11? It looked pretty sweet. Private jet?

We had one of the new Cyclones come through MJ a little bit ago, they will be heading to Calgary, should be there in a couple hours.

Had a peek inside, seems like a nice upgrade to the Seaking, lol.

Well this is embarrassing, landing on 36th with 80 gal of fuel still on board. Interesting to read the comments about the checklist deficiencies and that it happened to a pilot with 9500 hours.

They are in the process of recovering the models, and hope to locate and retrieve one of the full sized test models.

I'm sure that I'll go to my grave (in 127 years as a cyborg making minimum wage), still believing that an Arrow 2 program would be the greatest missed opportunity for building patriotism and a national identity that this country ever had.

Who's down for 10 billion in sunk costs for something awesome?

Freaking Korean Air Cargo 747 (horse meat express to Japan) waking me up this morning at 0401 on its departure.

Doesn't this belong in the 'What makes me happy' thread?

Went to see the B29 Superfortress, “Fifi” at Windsor Airport in August. Very cool!

Air X charter A343 arrived from Sao Paulo last night. It will be the aircraft used to fly the Flames over to China in a few days.
