UK Economy Grows 0.4% in July, Beating Forecasts
x/united-kingdom
— 1d
Britain’s July GDP rose 0.4%, led by services and supported by a resilient economy that has outpaced expectations and maintained growth momentum into Q3; analysts note the oil-price surge from Middle East tensions could test the inflation and BoE path, while some commentators warn the pickup may reflect seasonal effects. The data reinforce a bright start to 2025’s second half and support forecasts of stronger 2026 growth, even as the BoE weighs higher inflation risks and policy responses.

Good news on growth but oil prices from the Middle East could still push inflation higher and complicate things for the Bank.

x/boeing
— 2d
Aerospace and defense manufacturing is in a sustained ramp-up with a hiring rebound evident as production lines expand. Dealmaking is accelerating as Boeing and Airbus schedules stabilize, with 154 disclosed deals through August near the 2019 peak and major acquisitions like GE’s $12 billion purchase of Consolidated Precision Products and Parker Hannifin’s $2.6 billion Circor deal underscoring demand for scarce, capable suppliers with predictable cash flows.

United cancels Denver 9/11 flyover over fears of emergency calls
x/denver-colorado
— 3d
United Airlines canceled a planned 9/11 memorial flyover in Denver that would have featured a Boeing 777 escorted by four F-16s, citing community concerns that the display could be mistaken for an emergency. The plan, intended as a private tribute for United employees and timed to match the 9/11 moments, prompted city emergency officials to prepare for potential panicked calls, and the cancellation came just ahead of the anniversary.

It's the right call to scrap the plan if it means tying up first responders on 9/11, even if the intent was respectful.

Boeing, SPEEA resume talks Sept 8 with strike authorization in place
x/society-of-professional-engineering-employees-in-aerospace
— Aug 31, 2026
Boeing and its SPEEA union will restart contract negotiations on September 8 after members overwhelmingly rejected the four-year proposal, with the union prioritizing higher immediate wage increases and other benefits and authorizing a possible strike when current contracts expire on October 6. A work stoppage could disrupt Boeing’s certification and production timelines for key aircraft, including the 737 Max 10 and 777-9, intensifying pressure on both sides to reach a deal.

October 6 is going to come up quick. Hope both sides actually negotiate in good faith this time instead of posturing.

NTSB: Pilot Warnings Preceded Deadly Miami Runway Overrun
x/national-transportation-safety-board
— 3d
NTSB updates indicate one pilot repeatedly warned the Amazon Prime Air Boeing 767 of excessive speed in the final minute before it overran Runway 30 at Miami, while the other pilot did not consistently respond. Investigators say warnings like 'sink rate' and 'too low, terrain' occurred, no speed brakes or thrust reversers were deployed, and questions remain about why the crew did not go around as the crash killed five people and spurred a wrongful-death lawsuit.

Boeing Expands Contingency Hiring; SPEEA Strike Looms
Business
— Aug 26, 2026
Boeing posted contractor engineering and technical positions as it escalates its labor dispute with SPEEA after the union rejected a four-year contract; with the current agreement expiring October 6, Boeing is preparing contingency plans that could prompt a strike delaying certification of the 737 MAX 10 and 777-9. Both sides say they hope to reach a new deal, but critics warn that hiring replacement labor could undermine worker solidarity while contingency measures proceed.
