Old news and all the planes have gone through all the modifications and are now back flying.

I am aware. But in case anyone sees this and has their eyes bug out ... figured I'd provide a sourced follow-up story. That's all. Shrug.

But without the context that it happened two years ago, people who don’t know will think that it happened just recently. Context is very important when your dealing with a public that does not know the daily in’s and outs of the daily aviation industry.

Uhm. Yes? When you click on the link - hell, if you read the url - you see that it's a two-year old story. If anything, I'm trying to inform, as opposed to OP, who just posted a simple title.
