I expect the USAF to get their panties in a bunch and pitch a fit. Almost 50 years ago, the AH-56 Cheyenne caused a storm with it’s pusher config. Seems the idea of the Army providing their own CAS capability didn’t sit well with some generals. After the AH-56 was cancelled, the A-X competition led to the A-10. We…

Just remember, in Ryanair's atlas, here are the likely actual destinations:
Boston = Manchester, NH (MHT)
Chicago = Gary, IN (GYY)
Miami = Palm Beach, FL (PBI)
New York = Newburgh, NY (SWF)
Washington = Richmond, VA (RIC)

I would get it in a heartbeat but I think it will be a total failure in the US market.

Realistically, it doesn't matter that Apple did a lazy warm over upgrade of the Air because they will still sell a ton of them. Many people will buy an Apple product simply because it is an Apple product. Apple will make tons of money with a fast and cheap refresh.

For a Starbucks barista with $120K in student loans for the bachelors degree in manatee psychology and a masters in underwater Belgium basket weaving, what's another $10k in debt?

Thanks for the heads up. Now all the screwed up "facts" makes sense. Hats off to Aviation Intel for an awesome article that is well researched. Boooo to Gizmodo stealing an article and jumbling it up into a steaming pile of mixed manure.

Developed in 1948 by the USAF in direct response to the the Tu-4 threat, the Starfire is the direct descendent of America's very first jet fighter, the F-80 Shooting Star (though some inspiration also came from the later T-33A Shooting Star).

Very true Scrape, the 737 and 757 share the same cabin cross section. The A318/319/320/321 have passenger cabins 6" wider than the above Boeings.

Qantas flies the 747-400/400ER. BTW, there is no 747-800, the designation is 747-8i for the pax version.

How dare you mess up random intrawebs speculation with these things you call "facts."

If I recall correct it was UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT RIGHT, B, A, START.

Well Count robblewashere, this watch also has a heated backing to keep your hand warm while checking the time.

Took my friend's car into a local Toyota stealership to get an "express" oil change. She usually goes to her local mechanic but was mailed a coupon for a very discounted oil service. 3 1/2 hours later, the service salesman... err... advisor comes out and tells me her car needs a new cabin air filter. The filter in…
