ItтАЩs why IтАЩm reluctant to fly anymore. Wish they didnтАЩt have so many govтАЩt contracts. Sort of makes them to big to fail, when oversight could make failure not an option.

Same here...I'm wondering if I really want to fly to Reykjavik on one of Icelandair's Boeing jets. (757-200 series). I haven't read anything bad about any of them...but you gotta wonder and after reading this article...yikes!

757-200 was designed and built during the 'good times."
