I agree, Boeing needs to develop an entirely new aircraft to fit in the empty space left by the 757: a wider fuselage, capable of comfortably accommodate between 200 and 250 passengers, and a range longer than that of the A321 XLR. This will be a winning choice, because Airbus doesn't have a product of this kind, and because there are people, like me, that don't like to travel for long hauls crammed in the tiny spaces of a low-cost company's aircraft !!

The Alitalia brand will continue to be written on the fuselages, just like the green-white-red "A"s on the tails. The name ITA will not replace Alitalia: it is the new state-owned company that will acquire the "good" assests of Alitalia and try to make it start anew.

I won't have any fear in boarding a 737 MAX, I'm sure it's a pefectly safe plane. My opinion is that a great factor in the two crashes was an improper training of the pilots, ...... and Lion Air has a sad record of accidents in its past !!

I totally agree with Jean-Marc. A big step towards peace in Middle East, thanks to the Trump administration and Israel's and UAE's pragmatic politcs.

The best commercial plane ever built. No other plane has ever reached its level of versatility. And it's so elegant, Joe Sutter's masterpiece !!

I'll keep flying even I were the only human being on Earth. I don't give a damn to what this 16er says, she is obviously playing the part that someone wrote for her !!

I don't give a damn to a 16er who doesn't have any knowledge about environmental physics. She obviously follows the copycat that someone who makes great profits in the "green" industry gives her.

These men are completely crazy: every ban is a form of totalitarianism, I would never cast my vote for politicians like them. I thought communism was dead 30 years ago today, when Berlin's wall was torn apart, but when I read things like this I sadly understand I was wrong !!
