Today’s set: Boeing’s lost win, a leap into air taxis, space tourism’s status, France enforcing disruption, airport queue oddities, and the development funding retreat.
Why Boeing lost FlyDubai.
A “please don’t mention us” URL pushes the story — why did Boeing lose the FlyDubai order? Questions around timing, risk, and reputation.

New French enforcement: delay or disrupt a flight and you may pay. Regulation catching up with airline behaviour.

A NEW CATEGORY… Weird.
Virtual queues for aircraft: planes stay at gate until take-off slot? It’s viral, unusual — but airports don’t work that way.

Quirky: Sad but fixable.
The world’s richest nations are reducing global development aid. The drop is unfortunate, but reversable.
