that nose… if concorde and an A330 had a baby lol… how did you make that?
It was something I found on the internet when I was looking up “KSEA” (ICAO code btw) and there was some rendering of a project for the airport and I found this monstrosity. Sense I don’t take a picture of the topic I was talking about I decided to use that then put a caption with a joke in it. So that how I got it.

Sonic airline’s daily #15:Got it noted
Due to resent events, NATO countries agreed that they will not buy any more Boeing aircraft. Stardust has been thinking if start buying Airbus for their European division. Meanwhile all of airbus’s plane are going to become fly games of monopoly! Anyways hear some news from IAD. The IAD management team said that they might want to do an event called “IAD’s new big boy’s”. Which might involve the building of a large gate and the “once in a lifetime” landing of unique arrivals. However… well we are yet to know what will happen on that event.
Picure1: If you have seen this before well… you probably have.

NEWS FROM ST, JOHNS AIRWAYS!!! (sry bout the caps) An A339 has been spotted leaving the hanger at toulose! another A321NX has also been seen! and the last buluga has landed bringing an A321NX fuselage for our airline its very exciting to get these planes as we move away from our E190s and get A321NX, A339 and E290s. we are at our last few months before getting these planes (about 1month) and after putting it off for a while we almost have enough for our last A339 (sounds weird i know i have just been putting it off because… of personal things) anyways, we are expecting to get them in the next month or sooner

Weed Air Announces Fleet Modernization and Optimization Project at Innsbruck Hub
for publication: 05.05.2026
Weed Air, the Reykjavik based Private Limited Corporation is announcing a fleet wide modernization and optimization project, and will begin with operations from their Innsbruck hub. This will be done in phases and will see the redistribution of planes across the network, including the creation of new routes to serve new markets and the use of higher capacity planes to maximized the passengers served across the network.
In the first phase of the fleet modernization project Weed Air will be sunsetting the following routes:
- INN - BRI on SF34s
- INN - PRG on B463s
- INN - LHR on A319s
- INN - MCT on A320s
In addition, the airline will be leasing its entire CRJ, E-Jet, and ATR fleets as well as its singular DHC6 in order to help fund the purchase of new aircraft to several focus cities in Europe, Asia, and North America.
To replace service to these airports, and to expand to new focus cities, we will be purchasing:
15 Airbus 319neos – the backbone of our INN fleet, the A319neo will provide for the bulk of our fleet operations, using its long range, short take-off distance, and fuel efficient design to service flights to BRI, LHR, CNN, MCT, and IAD.
4 Embraer E-Jet 175s – these planes perfectly fit the demand for our routes between INN and ZRH.
3 De Havilland Canada Dash 8 Q400 – these planes perfectly fit the demand for our routes between INN and PRG.
2 De Havilland Canada Dash 8 Q300 – these planes have been purchased from those retired by QantasLink in the previous year, and will specifically be utilized for our low demand route between INN and LEJ. Even on the lowest demand routes, it is important that we provide quality service, and our purchase of these aircraft exemplifies this desire.
Finally, Weed Air is proud to announce our first expansion into cargo services from Innsbruck, announcing the purchases of:
1 Boeing C17 Globemaster III – The short takeoff range and high capacity makes it the ideal transport aircraft for imports and exports between INN and MCT.
5 Boeing 737-800Fs – With its midrange capacity, the 737F will provide daily service transporting goods between INN and LHR.
5 Embraer E-Jet 190Fs - A midcapacity jet perfect for short jumps between INN and LEJ
5 Canadair Regional Jet 200Fs – these versatile jets will focus on our lowest demand routes to BRI and ZRH
3 Avions de Transport Regional 75Fs – providing low demand from INN to PRG.
This will bring the total number of planes at the INN hub to 43, allowing for frequent quality service between the Austrian alps and our main focus cities.
While we understand that plane spotters and customers may be disappointed in the lack of diversity as we begin this transition, we are able to confirm that additional variety is still planned as further optimizations occur, and that we are committed to providing the best plane for each route we service, regardless of cost of acquisition. Contracts will begin to be sunsetted as they finish, and new planes will be in the sky shortly!

Lots of real life stats. I am trying to impose more limits on how I use planes to force myself into purchasing a wider variety of planes with intention. But as I go further down rabbit holes I do find I tend to keep tweaking what I fly lol.

Ahhh between I’ve got 2 new F70 in INN, both send to London to my dear GSA member @Tetryox . Both F70 came from Alliance Airlines, like that one in BRI. Both were claimed for 38.000W and flew the same route as our F70 in BRI, but after they landed at BRI, they would directly fly to INN

Weed Air Announces Fleet Modernization and Optimization Project at Bari Hub
for publication: 12.05.2026
Following successful rollout of the first phase of our iNN fleet optimization project, seeing extensive (and ongoing) route development, Weed Airline’s CEO C.J.R.V. Williams is announcing a concurrent fleet development project at the airline’s #2 hub – BRI.
After a mass liquidation of planes previously stationed at the airport, we are currently in the process of acquiring the following fleet planes for the airport:
5 A19Ns – for service on long and thin routes and routes limited by runway length such as CNN and INN respectively.
13 A21Ns - the bulk of our service, providing connections to focus cities in PRG, LHR, ZRH, and MCT and providing the mechanism for the bulk of passengers carried
2 CRJX – providing an important connections to LEJ, this aircraft serves our lowest demand customers making sure they have direct connections to BRI.
1 AT43F – providing cargo service to INN on a limited capacity
and 17 B738Fs - the bulk operator of our European cargo fleet from BRI
While not all of these airplanes have been purchased the fleet is rapidly being filled out and there are future planes to bring wide bodies to the airport, including B763s and A343s.
In addition, we are finalizing purchases to expand our SXM route network as part of our third hub and hope to have a press release out regarding this within the next week!

SkyStaffextra Hopper News!
A local TV program interviewed the CEO of SkyStaffextra about the cheap ticket prizes of the INN-LHR-INN which is 37,20€. They ask, how they do money with that, and if Austrian and other cheap airlines should worry about them:
Interviewer: “So, Staffextra, how do you make money with those flights?”
Staffextra: “INN-LHR is a short hop route and the handling times at INN and LHR are about 7min so we get many flights per day. On top, we have two machines and more and more people want to fly with us. We use the same system as GSX in America: Cheap but neat!”
Interviewer: “Should other airlines in Austria or cheap ticket airlines worry about you?”
Staffextra: “We will expand our fleet to 3 planes soon, so I think they will have an eye on us”
Interviewer: Thank you very much for that interview! Enjoy your day and more news will come soon!”

LHR’s a rather odd choice for a low-cost flight now… How can that ever be profitable with LHR’s high airport charges? And don’t even get me started about slot constraints…
