  11. It’s a combination of all three!

  13. How do you think they got them to Texas?

  14. The interior furnishings were removed, which creates a great risk of FOD.

  15. @canaryX2784That’s because of ignorant comments like yours from so many ignorant people.

  16. And they also have a much lower internal heat load. Simpleton.
    1
  17. Only they didn’t submit a proposal, so you have that little problem.

  23.  @schnilos5481  nothing to do with redundancy, it’s about electrical power. What do you think that they are doing with that double amount of wiring?!?

  24.  @PaulMcElligott  How about non-commercial aircraft? The C-5 is going to need to be replaced, maybe C-X will have 4 engines and be able to be modified into a Presidential Aircraft.

  25.  @schnilos5481  MORE reliable is irrelevant if a 2 engine aircraft can meet the reliability requirements. Two engine aircraft can NOT meet the electrical power requirements.

  32. I had just the opposite, a trip with a connection in STL, but when I got off the first flight and checked my outgoing gate, it was the same gate (and aircraft) that I arrived at, but with a different flight number.

  33. Only $3.2m with that much damage, repairs, loss of use and labor? What about other airlines?

    1
  37. Nothing else met the requirements.
    1
  38. The contract is already in place.
    1
  39. And there was no proposal for that aircraft. The government can’t just open up a catalog and place an order for a unique system.
    1
  40. Obama didn’t sign for anything. The contract was awarded under the Trump Administration.
    1
  41.  @jamesgrigg6918  there was no deal
