Wow. I’m surprised someone made it that far inside the security perimeter with no one noticing. But as John Denver famously sang…

Seems like that man unfortunately hit a rocky mountain low
MD-11 is back
Sounds like the only airline this really impacts is FedEx tho
Edit: and perhaps western global.
why doesnt fedex move to the aging 747F or B767F or A330s or A340s
The MD-11 fits a unique spot in Fed Ex’s fleet between the 767 and 777. 747 is out of the question at this point considering the production lines have been shut for a few years now and unlike UPS who had the capacity to replace the MD-11 in its role, Fed Ex didn’t.
Fed Ex also has a slightly younger fleet and one which has and had undergone a lot more maintenance than UPS’s one including I believe the wing engine mountings being replaced, don’t quote me on that though, so their fleet is a lot better and can go on several years. It’s one of the reasons it’s doubtful they’d retire them.
I’m just curious as to whether Western Global will follow Fed Ex or if they’ll replace theirs. Plus the DC 10 freighter in Bolivia, I’m not sure if that’s coming back into service again.

First complete electric taxibot(pushback truck) in use in ams. Atm it can push embrear e175, e190,e195 and b737. The oe-lst of easyjet a20n is changed so it can use it. The pilot can move it from gate to polderbaan when coupled and pushback truck drive it back to gate. This lower emission ams airport want.
Why AI needs to be everywhere? It’s nice that they are doing this, but I think it won’t end up well.

I agree, but this isn’t AI. These are just robots, which actually are useful
