It's....happening. The first real aircraft change (sorta) in 30 years!

Always wondered whether they would do this upgrade. Sounds very cool. Curious to know what adjustments the pilots will need to make to adapt their routines to the newer and larger aircraft.

They should have gotten F-35s ... imagine the insane routines!

I'm surprised they didn't switch to drones after the sequestration
