Didn't expect a longer video on this channel as longer videos are usually on the Long-Haul channel, great to see though!

[@thompson37]

But 2 minutes approx. was taken up with an annoying ad.

I know at RDU, in 2016, it was rumored the London flight would be upgraded to the 787 from 767. Instead, they opted for the 772 because the aircraft seats more in upper classes, and has a high cargo capacity (both of which are high demands at RDU).

Very interesting to study

[@andrewyoung3299]

That is true about the wide-bodies from the US east and west coasts. I remember being on a 767 with Delta to New York from Los Angeles The return leg was on an A330

I remember back in 2012-2013 flying back from Florida to Detroit I think it’s been so long and I was only 7 years old we flew on a Boeing 767-300 which was unusual because mostly delta flew 757’s

[@ADFeldbauer]

Considering E-170/175/190/195 fleet but I can’t compete in the mainline. If I want mainline then what is recommended?

0:43 Jetstreams do not always flow West to East. During the monsoon season an easterly jetstream develops from Southeast Asia all the way to Africa.

[@simondahl5437]

And they flow East to west in the Southern Hemisphere.

How does an airline route network work? Does an aircraft fly to one destination all the time until it is retired or does it fly to multiple locations before regurning to the hub airport?

[@simondahl5437]

Wendover Productions has a video on that.

[@jaysmith1408]

Also figure on the airfields themselves. You aren’t going to get a 767 into LaGuardia, you aren’t going to see an E170 in Telluride. They just don’t fit. Same reason (at least partially) many cities have lost service, the airlines retire the only aircraft capable of serving them. And with cancellation of production of most regional aircraft, there isn’t much between a Caravan and an A220.

[@nickhiscock8948]

The advert pads it out greatly. best to get rid of the advert in such short videos

[@izuaff04]

I'm sure there's a software that calculate this

[@enderbeam8089]

I'm second here!

[@jamiesworld1690]

All u do is announce a route and plan around it
