A new era

Today Evening Star’s first flight has just landed 2 hours ago in Perth Australia, completing its first flight non-stop from London.

The passengers on board had very good reviews for the trip
“the bed was more comfortable than my own bed”
“it was wonderful to fall asleep after leaving London then waking up to being only an hour from Perth”
“on board service was wonderful, flight attendants didn’t rudely wake you up for landing, and they were very helpful if you did need anything. Did I mention that the food was good too?”

The food was a special catering by a restaraunt based out of horsepower’s base, Idaho Falls, and this restaraunt plans to be the special catering service for Evening Star, setting in it’s premium nature.

Developing News
Reporters around IAD looking for any celebrity scoop have noticed an increase arrival and meetings within IAD conference rooms of “Upper Employee Counsel” for Argon Air.
Ordinarily the activity would be dismissed as corporate training as IAD is now the main headquarters for Argon Air however, with the increased sighting of counsel members begs the question: “What is up”.
With an employee owned corp with close to 100% employee satisfaction no one is talking.
One thing we do know, through Argon Airs financial transparency, they did take hit a during “The Fare Wars”.
The only hint of anything came from a reporter waiting for a connecting flight mentioned, “as the doors were closing when I walked by I happen to see a bag of those chocolates from Eco on a table”.

stepping into fire

With the recent launch of Evening star, tonight marks their second and brand new flight, Baku-Denver, a 12-15 hour flight using the recently delivered A359ULR aircraft. With this though, horsepower initiated another war they may not be ready for and that war is against the other mountain airline giant of the US: Rocky Mountain Air.

With this initiation into Denver, Horsepower is directly facing mass competition from Denver’s biggest airline, but the CEO seems to almost not care. In fact, he almost was acting as if he was planning a alliance with the airline, but many mentioned that rocky mountain air was a part of star alliance, not tranquility.

This flight has hsd it’s aircraft land in Baku and is scheduled to leave tomorrow at sunset, with landing in Denver expected around 13:00 MDT

a strange sight
Today in Sydney, something strange appeared. Among the other horsepower Australia A318s and BAE 146-100s, a Teton Link (Horsepower hopper branch specializing in connecting the Teton mountain range, in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming) DHC6 was seen landing on runway 16R, with radar showing it bound for Lord Howe Island.

This sight confused many spotters, and it also begged the question: how does a American registered aircraft (N-JKSN) make it all the way to Australia?

This question was answered in the same interview that the new evening star flight was announced in:
“the aircraft was originally bound for IDA international, but there was a mixup in orders, and a Teton link DHC6 was swapped for a horsepower australia one, and vise versa, mensing that in the coming weeks you should be seeing a horsepower australia DHC6 at JAC, seeing as that’s where it’s bound for right now.”
