This had to be resolved quickly as the consequences of any delay were so massive and expensive with passengers stranded all over the world. The government was heavy handed trying to force the cabin crews back to work, that backfired but at last a resolution . #aircanadastrike.
Air Canada now getting back in the air after the airline and the flight attendants’ union reached a tentative contract agreement this morning. First flight out:

The Royal Air Force family is saddened to hear of the death of Britain’s last surviving WWII Victoria Cross recipient Flight Lieutenant (retired) John Cruickshank, who died last week age 105. #PerArduaAdAstra #BlueSkies Image Credit: RAF Museum

aviationweek.com
Airbus is investigating a bonding defect found in the structure of A380 slats after inflight events, a recent report by French air accident investigation bureau BEA says.
