Items necessary for "Minimum Viable Airlines" and your "Minimum Viable Project". These are the items that we agreed we would need before embarking on a project together. Do you have all of these before you begin a project?

1. Destination - Project Vision
2. Altitude - Depth of backlog
3. Location - Progress (working software)
4. Airspeed - Speed of delivery and speed constraints
5. Fuel - Stories
6. Captain or pilot - A leader
7. Black box - Project data or metrics
8. Landing gear - A clear and well worn path to prod
9. Good flight procedures - Working agreements
10. FAA flight time restrictions for pilots - Sustainable pace
11. Logbook - Source control
12. Emergency slide - Good enough or a safe way to end a project on short notice
