I can't speak to what we should expect from a competition between planes with 30+ years of technology that cost 5x as much, but this sounds a lot like a demo for foreign buyers. It could easily be something like https://en.w

Good point. Assuming a 30 year career, the US population grew from 250MM in 1990 to 330MM today. So it could average as high as 1.3, maybe rounded up to 1.5 considering an increase in average educational achievement.

TWA has >8000 employees on LinkedIn & >$10B in revenue, getting a CEO who isn't making at a salary in the top 1% of US workers seems like a stretch.

TL;DR: Revenue is down 60% “This is a pickle, to say the least”… “If you can’t or won’t adopt the card, we need to add an “unbundling fee” to replace the interchange revenue we would otherwise use to subsidize the increased cost to support

Obviously a lot of the banned PINs are years... interestingly they start at 1956 (and end at 2015). I guess 65+ year olds are in their target demographic.

I tuned out there as well. To describe upper middle class as those earning between 112k and 1.5MM a year... well sounds exactly like what someone peddling financial advice to doctors might say.

I also have a math degree. If the prevailing model of a university education is to give you career skills that you'll use, well ok, I maybe use 10% of it. But if you think of a degree as purely a signaling mechanism, then a pure math (
