In speeches with a distinct electoral slant, Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and Economy Minister Sergio Massa appeared together at the launch of a pilot-training simulator by the national airline Aerolíneas Argentinas in Ezeiza. “I want to go back to what we defend when we defend Aerolíneas. The simulator in question is for Boeing 737 Max aircraft training and according to Aerolíneas will save the state USD$7 million a year. He highlighted its contribution to the National Treasury, saying that the airline saw its lowest level of losses last year, USD$246 million. “Someone should urgently invent a presidential simulator and input Argentina’s numbers and problems, not those of Switzerland or Sweden or Norway,” she said.
