On this week’s episode of AvTalk, it’s hard numbers, euphemistic language, and a bit of planes on fire.

If all of the first quarter earnings reports could be summed up in a single headline, it would be: “Seeking stability in a fluid age of dynamically uncertain softening.” We review Q1 financials from Boeing, Southwest, and others to see how the aerospace industry’s largest players fared at the beginning of the year and what they think the rest of the year has in store.

The FAA announces a fast-tracking of the new NOTAM system, it is now supposed to be ready for operational use by September. A Delta A330 engine catches fire in Orlando and the evacuation raises some questions about slide deployment. And one undisclosed podcast listener has a bit of fun with a new domain name: meet UndisclosedAirlines.com.
