I enjoy travel, being outdoors, and airplanes.

@MCCCANM I think he's an exec at Raytheon now. He probably has good things to say about their missiles.

@IshrionA @AviationStl

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@MCCCANM Did they hire everyone from WN? This sounds identical to their 2022 meltdown.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl Good luck with that! Lol!

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@flystl Isn't it in Concourse E?

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@jrrdesertfox9 @MCCCANM Based on the wind sock and weather station location, it actually appears to be on the RIGHT side of 17R.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@flightradar24 @WLKY The picture of the front of the cowling is by the PAPI for 35L so on the right side of a 17R departure. The pictures of the engine also seem to show it on the right side of the runway. Quite a journey for the #1 engine.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl For the places I normally need to go, AA is the most convenient of those. The other two require an out of the way connection.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl Would not be surprised if they clear customs at T2 and then tow over to C for departure. Collocate with AA for lounge use and check-in. T2 doesn't have space for more desks but maybe they finally get D open.

@AviationStl @BLVairport TYS doesn't show on their route map at all anymore (even as seasonal) so I guess it isn't coming back. Beaches and Vegas are clearly more popular.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl @flystl Maybe picking up from Ft. Leonard Wood? Otherwise they could do ATL-ANC non-stop.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@JebBrooks @SouthwestAir Tennessee One, but I think they all look better on the -800's.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl @HBelz4 Just when I was thinking of a trip to TYS next year. I guess we could drive or fly WN.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@AviationStl Really moving to hub and spoke with routes like TUS-PHX & MDW-MKE.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@MCCCANM @citymuseum The Prologue Room at the STL Boeing site has a lot of scale models of their products and a Gemini and Mercury capsule. It's not very big but can make for a quick visit on the way to the airport.

@AviationStl Saw a quote here that said people showed up in the morning for flights later in the day. They could have waited elsewhere so people didn't miss their flights.

@IshrionA Connecting flights via Orlando to Missouri? I don't recall Breeze regularly serving Missouri. Wikipedia doesn't show any current routes. MCO also isn't a great place to connect between PA & MO.

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@S_DOT326 @jonostrower The Cockpit Area Mic can pick up other sounds in the cockpit. The NTSB has analyzed these sounds in previous accidents. https://t.co/TfVTtAAU2B

[StephenB @SJBfromSTL]

@jonostrower The CVR should have captured the sound of the switches being moved if that did indeed happen. Investigators can do impressive audio processing.
