Porter Airlines will be the launch carrier at Montreal Metropolitan Airport (YHU) brand new terminal. Starting on June 15, 2026, the Canadian airline will launch 12 domestic routes out of Montréal’s secondary airport (also referred to as “MET”). While Montréal’s MET airport (previously known as “Montréal Saint-Hubert”) has long been in service, it has previously seen limited commercial service. The opening of a C$450 million (US$325 million approximately) state-of-the-art terminal is expected to change that by offering an alternative to Montréal Trudeau International Airport (YUL), the city’s largest international airport. Porter Airlines has been instrumental in revitalizing Montréal’s MET airport.…
Images shared by U.S. Central Command suggest that at least some A-10s taking part in Operation Epic Fury carry new video game-inspired nicknames, an operationally irrelevant detail but one likely to interest spotters and modelers. As we already reported a few days ago, the U.S. Air Force A-10 Thundebolt II jets supporting operation Epic Fury have started targeting fast attack watercraft in the Strait of Hormuz. As explained by General Dan Caine, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, during the Press Briefing at the Pentagon on Mar. 19, 2026, the Warthogs are now engaged across the southern flank, flying…

Absolutely massive credit goes to Delta for this power move… Delta gives middle finger to members of Congress It’s chaos at many airports in the United States at the moment, due to the partial government shutdown, with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) not being funded. We’re seeing an increasing number of Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees calling in sick, given that they haven’t been paid for their last three paycheck periods. This is causing huge issues at many airports, which airlines obviously aren’t happy about. While airlines have broadly campaigned for a resolution to this issue, this might be…
The latest Director, Operational Test & Evaluation report says no combat-capable F-35 TR-3 aircraft have been delivered to the U.S. military until September 2025 because of the truncated software.

TR-3 is the backbone upon which the new Block 4 is based, allowing the introduction of new advanced capabilities on the F-35 Lightning II. A New Catch As we previously reported, TR-3 had already caused many issues for the F-35 program, including a…

With a reducer fitting, you can connect one pipe to another pipe with a smaller diameter. Below are six facts about reducer fittings. #1) Most Are Threaded Most reducer fittings are threaded. Each end has an externally threaded section. One of these ends, however, has a smaller diameter than the other. You can install a reducer fitting by twisting threaded pipes of the appropriate sizes onto the ends. In addition to threaded, though, some…

United Airlines is on quite the roll when it comes to passenger experience announcements. We’ve learned about the upcoming Airbus A321XLRs, Coastliner Airbus A321neos, and Bombardier CRJ-450s. Now here’s an interesting way that United is trying to improve the long haul economy experience, but it probably won’t come cheap. United long haul flights get creative new seating option United Airlines is introducing what’s being branded as Relax Row, whereby passengers can reserve a row of three seats in economy on long haul flights, which transform into a couch (or “lie-flat mattress-like space”). This is described as being ideal for families…
