I don't watch this show, but then again I hardly watch any show on TV. I think this episode was on last night, in fact. Just happened to see this 2 minutes.

Towger:
I think Ryanair are too optimistic. Their Max 8200s are a different version, which will require additional/separate certification from the normal smaller Max 8. According to the article the delay will reduce growth, not lead to layoffs. The Max was grounded a couple of weeks before their first one was due to arrive, they are not struck with them on the ground. As announced yesterday, Mick is planning on reducing UK flights, which will free up aircraft to expand other routes.
