What's this mod about? Bigger winglets? Didn't see anything on the Airbus site.



Its definitely in stealth mode..

Supposively the A320 wing is fairly efficient and there wasn't much effort put into true winglets (aside from the wingtip fences that are now present).

So oil takes off ... now the payoff of 2-4% fuel savings is a much higher number.

Neeleman and Co. have been discussing the wing tip mod with an outside company. They came up with a design. Airbus all of a sudden realizes they are possibly losing a source of $$$$ and jump in to. Suppose to be a fly off of the two designs at some point.

May see some more info on this in 12-18 months?
 
Quick - somebody start bashing JetBlue. You know it's coming.
 
Don't worry one of my banned users will come along and post something that I cant see.

It will be the same garbage that they cannot get over, but it all stems back to the fact that there mom did not hold them long enough, or they got a alpa tatoo on there lower back.

OK, JetBlue pilots don't know how to talk on the radio because they lack overall experience. And your shirts are ugly. And you are stupid for not having a union........There you go. That should make you feel better.
DD : )
 
You forgot E190 rates and cleaning the cabins. Did you mention not paying for fuel and Airplanes?
 
And you don't pay for maintenance either. You are returning the EMB's and oh by the way you DID lose 42million in the 4Q. :)

(You're on guard)
 
They let jumpseating pilots from other carriers sit in the FA jumpseats. Jetblue has done me many favors over the years! I have been a saab and beech 1900 pilot and unable to return the favor. That's pretty cool of the company.
 
Actually they are doing a pretty good job of bashing themselves. I think they have covered all of the bases!

Good to see some humor out of the blue dudes.
