Summary

On this week’s episode of AvTalk, Ian and Jason are back from their travels and back in the studio for a full week’s worth of aviation news. We start with Boeing’s resumption of 737 production and a judge’s rejection of the plea deal negotiated by Boeing and the US Department of Justice. Then we head west for the first major moves by Alaska Airlines as it integrates Hawaiian Airlines into its operations.
And in safety news, investigators begin analyzing the black boxes of the crashed Swift Air 737. And the NTSB releases its final report on the inflight upset suffered by a Challenger 300 in 2023, which finds the pilots did not follow proper procedures at multiple points before and during the flight—all starting with an ill-timed delivery of ice.

Jason. Hello, good to be back. Hello, Jason. What did I miss? Welcome back.

I mean, you missed a great time in Stockholm. I'll tell you that. Yeah. Yeah. Next year.

0:29.2

Where were you, sir? I banished to Virginia for work. You didn't miss anything. I'll tell you, the concept of flying on 12 hours in from Asia, getting a couple hours of sleep and then turning around on the 6 a.m. flight to Virginia was questionable.

0:47.0

I think I made the right call, but I'm still paying for it by trying to sleep off the jet lag over a week later.

0:53.5

I don't know what to tell you.

0:55.1

Stockholm next year.

0:56.2

I hear the bright sun and long daylight hours that time of year in that region really

helps defeat the jet lag.

Yeah, absolutely.

1:06.3

Absolutely it does.

All of the sun that I saw for approximately 12 and a half minutes throughout

as a company. And I'm now considering taking up curling. This is going to

1:40.7

1:47.4

think by the end of it, I was starting to get the hang of it. Now I'm really upset that I missed out

1:52.6

this year. Well, see, it just makes you want to come for next year. But I will say that it's nice

2:00.2
