NK1300 and AF1 had a bit of an "encounter" today-- ATC was reportedly yelling at NK1300 to get their attention to get them to alter course. Not sure it was a "close call" at all, but since AF1 involved.. I tend to believe the yelling part.

Russia continues to celebrate the Putin-Trump call. Today’s Russian papers: “Trump’s stance couldn’t be more advantageous to Moscow.” “Trump is our ideological partner.” Another paper tells European leaders: “Just breathe in the smell of the new world order.” #ReadingRussia

Don’t drink and shop online folks. Or you’ll end up with things like this exquisitely tasteful, high-quality gift I ordered for @timmyldn.bsky.social (which I even sent to my old address so @jackiehunter.bsky.social had to carry it across London…🤦♂️)

United CEO Scott Kirby is calling on the FAA to re-designate Newark as a Level 3, slot-controlled airport following the disruptions experienced there this week.
Newark was slot-controlled until 2016; returning to slots would, by default, benefit the incumbent airline – United.
