Oooo! :smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley: Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him :joy::joy::joy:

what do you mean by that?

We got plane on cam locked!!! A prove

Right, small things, like maybe skipping a flick of a switch on a checklist or misremembering a taxiway designation perhaps… but mistaking a blazing green centerline with blue edges for what should be white and white and at much greater intensity still baffles me. And with the given line of work, it’s unacceptable or lives can be lost. :confused:

The air Canada one and several others, fatigue was a factor but there were also operational changes at SFO in place at the time (one rway was closed) so that contributed too.

At the Singapore Airshow 2026, Japan Airlines (JAL) has made a deal with Boeing to enhance the interiors and in-flight connectivity of its 787 Dreamliners – 11 in total.

On February 5, 2026, Boeing announced in a statement that they will carry out the upgrades, which will introduce JAL’s latest cabin interior design to existing 787-9s in the JAL international fleet. This will align them with the design and configuration of JAL’s upcoming new 787-9 aircraft deliveries.

I’m hoping we get TAAG’s 747-300 in the classics update. That’d be an ace addition to GRU ops.

As a Canadian, I could not be happier what we are finally getting an a350 in our country! But I think this pretty much confirms that they are planning to move on from the 777 or a330 sometime in the future with all these next gen widebody orders, so it’ll be kind of sad to see them go.
