  2. Most modern fighters has low-air by-pass turbofan engines instead of turbojets. F-35 has one of the highest low-air by-pass turbofan engines and delivers the highest fighter engine thrust i.e 43,000 lbf. Sweden's Gripen E' fighters GE F414 engine is a low air-by-pass turbofan engine. low air-by-pass turbofan delivers better fuel consumption efficiency over the old turbojet engines.

  3. FYI, my usual holiday airline has announced passengers can move to another empty seat after takeoff with permission from the cabin crew. The aircraft type is usually Airbus 330-300 or Boeing 777-300 ER

  4. Indeed, it's like 737 Max's MCAS issue when pilots weren't informed with the new feature. New digital auto-features should be well communicated to the pilots.

  10. FYI, the Australian Federal Government has given funding to Regional Express (Rex) airline. Regional Express (Rex) established in 2002 by Australiawide Airlines consortium which is set up by former Ansett Australia employees. Ansett Australia was the second-largest Australian airline before Virgin Australia (ownership mostly foreign).
