Another week, with plenty of random thoughts from the guys…

What a mess for airlines and more as millions of Windows-based computers were knocked offline last Thursday night.

It could’ve been a lot worse, for sure. But now we have some initial details about the Southwest flight that took off from a closed runway two weeks ago.

A trio of Boeing stories top the show this week. And somehow pleading guilty to a crime might end up being good for the company?

The US DOT seems keen to rewrite the rules – or at least how they’re enforced – in a way that’s liable to significantly impact the US market.

Regulators are forcing airlines to do good things for passengers, which is refreshing. Plus maybe a new Dubai airport a decade from now, and lots more.

Why? because it leads to deliciousness later. But that has nothing to do with this week’s conversation. Fortunately, we’re joined by Ed in an effort to keep things on track.
