How Airlines Fly Cars, Sharks And Other Goods Under Passengers

Published

on



When the pandemic hit in early 2020, air travel came to a near halt. By April, more than half of the world’s passenger jets were parked. Those 16,000 planes also carry roughly half of the world’s air cargo, over 52 million metric tons of goods every year.

Cargo is typically only a small percentage of airline revenue, but it became a lifeline for Alaska Airlines, American, United and others as passengers stayed home under lockdown orders.
The air cargo market boomed and prices soared as consumers turned to e-commerce giants like Amazon to shop from home. Amazon sales surged 44% in Q1 2021 compared to 2020. Cargo’s share in total airline revenue almost quadrupled between 2016 and 2021.

In response, the world’s two biggest plane manufacturers started making cargo-only versions of their newest wide-body aircraft: the Boeing 777x and the Airbus A350. Boeing’s freight plane sales hit a new record in 2021 and expects an 80% increase in the global freighter fleet through 2041.

But as the global economy slows, is this growth in air cargo sustainable? Watch the video to learn more.

    I IMAGINE PIRACY OF THESE AIRCRAFT IS MORE CHALLENGING THAN A OCEAN GOING SHIP, BUT WHAT ABOUT BEING DESTROYED BY A SURFACE TO AIR MISSILE? WOULD THAT BE A RAPID DEATH WITH EXTREMELY BRIEF BUT INTENSE PAIN?

    The ancient Venetians of Italy did this on wooden sailing ships before the industrial revolution. I estimate between 1/3 to 2/3 of the Venetian traders died at sea or were murdered and robbed by their business partners and buried under the soil of countries such as India. The 1/3 that made it home became fabulously wealthy and Venice became and international trading and banking powerhouse. Why did this trading empire end? LOSS OF TRADE AND A SERIES OF WARS!

    Is it impossible to determine and plot supply and demand functions in order to maximize profits through having marginal revenue equal marginal cost with 100.00 percent accuracy?

    Have you seen the film "Cocaine Cowboys"? Criminal networks in the 1970's and 1980's were shipping dope in private aircraft without the knowledge and consent of the military or politicians illegally! The made billions of dollars working for about 5 years before the Department of Justice put an end to that!

    I used to be a ramp agent for Delta. And yeah we had all sorts of cargo. Anything from Caskets, little chicks, dogs, alot of postal mail too. 1 time a box of the chicks busted during flight so second we opened the belly of the plane we had little chicks running all over the place. Haha.

    At $18 per pound, it would cost $4500 to fly my 200 pound ass and my 50 pound bag, if we were cargo. Can't say I blame them.

    Believe in JESUS today, confess and repent of your sins. No one goes to heaven for doing good but by believing in JESUS who died for our sins. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.(John 3:16)❤️😁❤️😋❤️

    @0:13 "They carry roughly half of the worlds' air cargo". Please clarify what other transportation branch carries the other 50% of air cargo?

  39. @joereuben4909

    December 26, 2023 at 6:06 am

    Now everyone definitively knows why it costs a crazy extra amount when your bag is 2 pounds over the ever shrinking luggage weight limit. As always follow the money and you will know the truth.

    Greyhound Buses used to ship freight in the bays of their buses. And civilian/consumers could use it! Very cheap and took bigger items than Fedex. Just got recently stopped sadly.

  44. @paulblichmann2791

    December 26, 2023 at 6:06 am

    $49 for a suitcase…contents of which would not even cost $49! I knew from the start of the decline of airlines, they must be doing something in the bays.

AI’s Next Race: Cost, Control, and Compute

Published

on

By



The AI race is shifting from who has the biggest model to who can run, control and deploy AI most effectively.

Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas joins to discuss the company’s new orchestrator model, why he’s building on open-source Chinese AI, and his argument that “token value per watt” may decide the next phase of competition.

Then, Benchmark general partner Peter Fenton and Ollama CEO Jeff Morgan discuss the rise of open models, why enterprises are increasingly running models they can download and control, and what Ollama’s growth says about where the AI ecosystem is heading.

Together, the conversations get at one big question: in AI’s next race, will the winners be defined less by model access and more by cost, control and compute?

To achieve this, Warsh has created 5 “task forces” while soliciting interest from individuals outside of the Fed. This presents an opportunity for a small unelected group to influence the broader U.S. economy and value of U.S. dollars circulating globally. CNBC’s Matt Peterson reports.
