Henan Airlines Posts Picture Of Crashed Plane
Henan Airlines has posted a picture of their crashed plane on their website homepage. To me, it seems like a crazy move.

“My Plane” a Dornier 328

First Class On Regional Jets
American Eagle has started their first class service on their CRJ planes. I think the first class seats look nice, my question is, how will Embraer respond to this development. In ERJ-145s, there’s not a lot of space to add a first class cabin, and the roof line is really low. I would hope that ...
