    All right, everybody back to work

    On this week’s episode of AvTalk, Boeing machinists in the pacific northwest ratify a new contract, ending a 53 day strike. We discuss what’s in the contract and where Boeing goes from here. Spirit Aerosystems, the maker of 737 fuselages, says it may not have long as a “going concern.” Spirit Airlines will furlough hundreds more pilots next year as it continues searching for a path out of the financial hole it’s in. The Wall Street Journal reports that Russia is behind the series of parcel fires in air cargo shipments in Europe. Dublin’s passenger cap is on hold for now, Air Canada is bringing back a pair of 767 passenger jets, and airlines in the US must now refund you for significantly delayed or canceled flights if you choose not to fly. And we pay tribute to Ben Baldanza, former Spirit Airlines CEO and US ultra low cost carrier pioneer, who died this week at the age of 62 after a battle with ALS.

    The FAA doesn’t want headless pilots

    On this episode of AvTalk, a new report from the New York Times raises questions about Boeing’s differing response to 737 MAX operators’ requests for safety information following the crash of Lion Air 610. A passenger safely lands a King Air after the pilot is incapacitated. The NTSB issues a pair of preliminary reports. And when it comes to the 787, the FAA says a tired pilot is better than a headless pilot.
