minute 2:55 bis 3:00; ..das stimmt nicht, airbus hat ein besseres angebot als boeing abgegeben. ;) allerdings war vorraussetzung der us-regierung, daß das flugzeug in den usa gebaut wird. deshalb zog sich airbus aus dem bieter-rennen zurück.

The 330 is the sensible choice for medium/long rang. The longevity and maintenance costs are fairly set in stone. This can not be said for the 350, because, we just don't know yet.

It is a short step from incidents to accidents

PAL livery is so outdated already. They should've grab the opportunity to market reemergence of their fleet service with a new logo and livery. Oh well, PAL is PAL, which is why Cebu Pacific is gaining more traction ahead than them...

The 777x could be Boeing's last chance to save themselves.

Comfort and convienece is the reason I prefer ETIHAD foy travel from Europe to India and return.

I think boeing 787-9 is better

Boeing should've just peaked their 737 development at the NG series. Modernizing the 757 would've been their best answer to Airbus' A320neo series.

Till today, theres no flight found on that viva aerobus. So its not fixed yet?

As a normal line pilot i do on average around 2 to 3 ferry flights a year, flights without fare paying passengers. Some of those will have cabin crew on board, but officially those are passengers (we can carry up to 19 passengers, which does include company personnel, on ferry flights). During the pandemic my company decided not to put the aircraft into long term storage, but rather to keep them parked, ready for an immediate ramp up if needed. However, if parked the aircraft have to be flown once every 28 days. As a result i had to do quite a few traffic patterns under IFR rules to keep those planes airworthy. Both fun and stress, as it actually takes quite a bit of time to wake up a plane from cold, get it ready to fly, and then put it back to sleep afterwards. 15 minutes of flight and over an hour of work for it. Usually had to do it for 2 or 3 planes during a day, and quite often we had to do write ups as well as planes do not like to be on the ground for a long time.

Is there fleet pretty old?

You left out the UA 767 that dragged its tail during take off at IAD on 20 Apr 2024.

One thing to note here is that 90% of them are American companies which have parts and maintenance issues. Boeing, Pratt and Whitney etc.

A lot of these "incidents" are the exact same things happening at every major carrier around the world daily, just receiving more media attention to make them sensational. Not really news- worthy.

It was a big mistake for pal selling 4 a350s from its fleet if they should of just sell the a330s

At least they no longer beat elderly asian doctors...

It would be cool to see this succeed and Airbus even making new A380 Neo planes, but I don't think this will happen. This seems to be one rich guy's delusions.

What about the airbus A220 which uses the same engines?

Like Manufacturer (Boeing) like customer (United) i want to hear what scott kirby has to say for his Airline now.

Are you going to put out the same video with Delta or American to actually making these statistic meaningful?

I counted, there are at least 18 incidents by United so far in 2024

6:22:💀 imagine being in the toilet then realising that the toilet is overflowing

PAL really needs to upgrade its fleet used on its LAX to MNL route. Planes used on this route are so dated with a sub par 2-3-2 seating configuration in business class.

Condor cannot possibly get good efficiency with these non-aerodynamic stripes...

On a related question: How many or what percentage of senior maintenance personnel retired/quit from United during COVID? United's incidents may be a reflection of a "brain drain" within the carrier.

It's hard to make anything of this without knowing what the number of comparable incidents was last year or what it is for an airline relative to its size during a comparable period.

Ryanair put all its eggs in one basket with Boeing. Lucky their only short haul flights, awful dark and dingy aircraft.

AirBus any day. . . . ❤

Opinion: this carrier did not follow recommended procedures for storing aircraft during the pandemic for economic reasons. Now, such aircraft are failing more frequently than other carriers after return to normal duty cycles.

I think United Airlines needs to do more maintaining of their aircraft's !! PREMENTIVE MAINTAINENCE MIGHT BE IN ORDER SOMEBODY IS NOT DOING THEIR JOB!! ONCE AGAIN 90% BOEING AIRPLANES THAT WHY I DON'T FLY BOEING AIRCRAFT !!!!!!

This is what happens when a company prioritizes DEI over competence.

Looks like their maintenance game is really lacking at the moment!

United's obsession with DEI is just one of their problems. Another is generational. Young people working or flying for an airline do not have the same discipline and attention to detail my generation had. They learned in public school that you do not have to get the right answer to make the honor roll, since close is good enough. That does not work in the aviation business. I was a pilot for United for 29 years, 1986-2015 and in those years, we aspired to excelence in every job position from pilot to mechanic and more. Not happening today.

For the most part, except for hitting the manhole, it seems to be maintenance issues. All pilots landed their planes safely. So maybe United need to update their maintenance procedures and perhaps hire a few more staff if it's a workload issue. Obviously, this is a purely speculative thought process from me and would be willing to be corrected if I'm wrong.

Let's blame the aircraft manufacture. Nothing at all to do with maintenance.

It seems United Airlines have to go throught this bad luck for this year of 2024.

United get your stuff together

The first suspect would be maintenance. Let's see what the FAA has to say.

Because the woke airlines prioritize DEI over safety

Absolutely Rwandair not later than 2030

I would like to try NYC to MNL soon. I’ve always flown foreign airlines like Delta and United.

they united all of the aviation disasters into one

7:19 bro knew what he was doing with the path 💀

Maintenance maintenance maintenance

Human factor

Not flying this terrible airline anytime soon

Sorry to say, but PAL is an outright abysmal airline and a straight up embarrassment as the national carrier of our country. I cringe evertime I hear "The Heart of the Filipino" from PAL propaganda. Rickety ancient planes that are about as well equipped as a rotting toilet seat in a Duterte jail cell, an awful and confusing hub in Manila, service delivery & reliability only comparable to the dirtiest & seediest of ultra-low cost carriers, and an inability or lack of ethic of both staff & management to enact positive change for customers. Anyone that actually enjoys the PAL in-flight experience or enjoys being shoved into a hot & noisy mouse maze that is the Manila hub is kidding themselves. Not to mention that PAL flights arent exactly the cheapest in Asia when compared to true budget or ultra low cost carriers. Singapore Airlines & Scoot will remain my choice when commuting home back to the Philippines.

Why all this bad news about United? Why not a positive note about United? Did you know that United may be the world's DEI champion among airlines in 2024, for instance? Since 2021 United has been working hard to achieve this remarkable success. In an official statement on United's website we can read: "Our purpose-driven commitment to DEI is the right thing to do-and it's an essential driver of our growth and sustainable financial success.” Everyone saying they won't fly on United now is therefor racist or a bigot or phobic towards certain minorities, supporter of the patriarchy.

Boeing is under the line of fire with the incidents this year. However....I am surprised these incidents are only involving US carriers. So, is it a Boeing problem or a lack of US carriers maintencance?
