On this week’s episode of AvTalk, a bit of a different kind of episode to start. And then its onto more Boeing 737 inspections, angry airlines, and a perfectly executed emergency landing. This episode of AvTalk was recorded on Tuesday, 23 January 2024. More inspections and angry airlines The FAA expands inspection recommendations to include the 737-900ER. This affects Alaska, Delta, and United for the most part. And for its part, United Airlines is not happy with Boeing in the least. United CEO Scott Kirby said earlier this week that the 737-9 MAX grounding is the “straw that broke the camel’s back.” Spirit and JetBlue appeal merger ruling Spirit and JetBlue are appealing a judges ruling against their proposed merger, not because they seem keen to fight, but because they’re contractually obligated. Southern Airways Express Cessna 208 makes emergency landing just after take off A Southern Airways Express Cessna 208 made an emergency landing moments after take off from Dulles Airport last week. The two pilots and five passengers landed on the Loudoun County Parkway just off airport property. Atlas Air 747 suffers engine issue in Miami An Atlas Air 747-8F experienced a failure of its left, inboard engine shortly after departure from Miami. According to witness video, flames could be seen trailing the engine. The aircraft safely returned to Miami. The FAA says a softball sized hole was found in the top of the engine upon inspection. Cargojet says thanks, but no thanks to 777 freighters Cargojet says the softening market means they don’t need the large 777 freighters they recently ordered. Storm Isha causes some unfortunate diversions Storm Isha made life difficult for thousands of passengers on more than 100 flights last week, but there were a few diversions that were far and away worse than the rest.
