Yes, and the workers would be much more “happy” with no virtue signalling or empathy patrolling!

THE biggest problem: CFM International (a joint venture of GE Aviation and Safran in France) can't keep up with the demand for the LEAP engines from both Airbus and Boeing. Indeed, Airbus is delaying a number of A320neo deliveries because CFM International can't keep up with the demand for the new engine.

I was forced into the Six Sigma farce at DEC. Millions wasted, made productivity worse. What doofus decided that three mistakes per one million steps is attainable?

Not a good idea to fly kites in a landing path. Twenty years ago at Shoreline Park in Mountain View, CA...

Plane Snags Line: Swept Off Her Feet by Kite, Girl, 8, Says

Of course, she was flying a bit more than a mere "kite."

Heh. Yeah, in my case, it would have just snapped the line. :)

I liked to see how high I could get kites to go, hence the fishing line. Low weight and very little drag.

I’m also 200 lbs. The line was only 50 lb test or around there. :-D

This an example of supply and demand. The 737 is a successful platform and lots of people want it. It’s a good problem to have.
