Sadly, this is America now. As long as Wall Street is happy with the stock performance, everything else is immaterial.

Planes full of loofahs crashing? Who cares. Earnings dividends are being paid.

Man, that’s an insanely naïve viewpoint. In general, HR bring the candidates to interview. And no one really knows how hard up some of these companies really are. There is tremendous pressure to get...

A thing called ‘startle factor’ is going to have played a huge role here, IMO. It doesn’t take but a bad instrument reading to precipitate an overwhelming, improper reaction.

This ‘thread’ officially derailed pages ago. You all will be unceremoniously stunned when the findings are far, far simpler than a stripped stabilizer jackscrew.

Hydroacoustics are best left to dolphins and submarines. Humans can hear sound under water but determining direction and distance is not possible without help. Additionally, the higher the frequency,...

The 240 ground speed would roughly equal 210 KCAS at 6000’, which is the published speed and altitude at RDFSH point (if in fact that was being navigated to and autothrottle managing speed).

This is a FAR121-Supplemental operating a flag (domestic) flight. So the 45-minute RSV applies, not 30min.
