Close friend Captain Ted Orris departing on his final flight. I drove up to RDU to surprise him in the helicopter on departure. If you look closely, you can see his first officer waiving! #SouthwestAirlines #swapic #boeinglover #boeing737 #retirement #aviation #aerialphotography

@kpottermn They would go bankrupt. There are less secondary airports than in Europe, city centers are farther apart, and consumers are willing to pay more for convenience. There’s a reason why spirit is going bankrupt and all the LCCs are introducing premium products. The model doesn’t work

@JeromeAdamsMD Great explanation Mr. Adams!

@ByERussell @AlaskaAir @ANCairport Delta has flown this route on a 767 a couple of seasons. Most recently summer 2021.

@nicholas_serati @ProfitsAndPoint @Delta Airline operations are not loss leaders, let’s make that clear. Jet fuel cost $80 a barrel in sept19 Vs nearly $140 a barrel today. Costs are astronomically higher, inflation, supply chain… yet it is expected that tickets are the same cost. Airlines are *subsidizing* their ops.

Most interns at Delta Airlines probably don’t envision spending their days hanging out of helicopters at 1,200 feet above the airport tarmac.

For GW alumnus Ryan Patterson, one of aviation's most celebrated photographers, that’s exactly what he’s doing.
