FlyDubai orders 150 Airbus A321 aircraft while Etihad orders 16 Airbus aircraft at Dubai Air Show

AP News DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — FlyDubai, the lower-cost sister airline to long-haul carrier Emirates, announced an order Tuesday for 150 Airbus A321 aircraft at the Dubai Air Show — a major purchase that will see the carrier for the first time expand its fleet beyond Boeing.

Global Anglican ties are under stress. It's unclear if they're at the breaking point

That would make a slow-growing Anglican schism complete — if it happens.
