Exactly. And that has nothing to do with climate change. it’s just Minnesota. It happens. But the envirocultists never stop making it all a crisis.

The industry is struggling from a staffing standpoint, no doubt. Very specific and long developing careers such as pilots and mechanics are one thing, but even frontline positions have been extremely difficult to fill.

I used to always do breakfast runs with my Dad. Great memories going to fly in the morning, eat, hang out with other pilots, and then fly around. Great fellowship.

Newsflash: it is very hot in summertime.

No, that’s how pricing works. Direct and local vs connection and flow markets. There’s a very complicated science/black art behind it. Buying a seat in one bucket that is meant for a connecting vs local customer essentially leaks revenue from the carrier. They have every right to protect those fare rules.

Maybe because it’s another warmed over recycled idea for which there is little appetite?

There’s nothing you guys won’t blame on climate change, LOL

“in our zeal to basically grow our content significantly to serve mostly our streaming offerings, we ended up taxing our people way beyond—in terms of their time and their focus—way beyond where they had been.”

This isn’t really news. There are payload limited and weight restricted flights all the time. Dispatching an A/C has so many variables, and when you factor in summer heat (which degrades aircraft performance), fuel load and burn, en route weather, winds aloft, etc etc...it happens ALL the time. 

Eh, no one wants or needs this.

MUCH better interior!! I had contemplated an Atlas but opted for a Volvo (for a number of reasons) but the interior was a big turnoff on the VW. This is a welcome change. 

Completely agree!! The teamwork aspect of the series was the entire premise upon which it was based, the various skills and how they work together. It really was quite something to enjoy and it wasn’t focused on a single character. That’s where the movies really are so inconsistent. 

I’m in the minority here, but I actually really enjoyed the MI-1988 series. It didn’t have a great budget, and Peter Graves will never win an Oscar for acting, but it was a mixed cast, they had some VERY good storylines, and tied it back to the original cast a few times, and even including Greg Morris’ son as Barney’s…

Poor, poor baby....

Imagine being funny, talented, wildly successful, and then completely ungrateful about it. GTFO

This belongs in Houston.

Very cool!! So lucky...that would’ve been a blast. I adore this show and hope the writing rebounds to maintain the funkiness it had early on. But damn if this isn’t one of my favorite shows of the past decade, easily. 

There’s no arc. There’s a stilted sloppily written instant change at the very end. Nothing in their relationship would dictate that. Nothing. That’s the problem. What could’ve been a mentorship or familial sort of reluctance that blossoms was shredded for the sake of the Mary Sue who then—in a stunning turn—literally…

The backseats are an insurance play. Two-seaters are always more expensive. Tis always the case.
