How much do you think the paint alone weighs on that plane?

That's pretty cool. What's interesting is not just how much that coat of paint weighs, but the residue from the previous paint jobs.

Nope, posted it as a kinda ominous warning. I was gonna post it in the Airline forum, but it being a video.

Figured it better here. Suprised PCL hasn't commented yet. I expected him to have first!

Something about Foreign Investors controlling US Based aviation companies, and the potential exploitation of labor and resources that this could lead to.

It makes every other issue we complain about seem minor.

...so, did the BA pilots get smart and not farm out their flying for Open Skies? Listening to the APA president.

Or did they give up on scope and allow third party pilots to fly their 757's?

Hopefully not, or I see a whipsaw coming, or simply transferring of airframes, and (possibly) whole lot more.

Most AA pilots I have talked to don't think very highly of CA. Hill.

Does that mean most AA pilots are not against the idea of Open Skies and its separate pilot group? I would have figured they wouldn't like that very much.
