Re: Maybe not a victim of a NOTAM?

I've heard that they also found some damage in the engines, a couple of holes in the fuselage, and even wing was found with some permanent deformation. Interesting. Makes the imagination go wild: It could explain distractions, the fast approach speeds, the not_extended slats, were there slat/flap a...

I suppose it’s an illusion, some of the planes seem to climb.

I miss the olden days when there were awesome landing lights way out on the wings.

Tomteria or True?

***guarded switches…[/b]somewhat-accurate reference to there…***
I do not_see a reference [from Evan or anyone] that there is a don’t_extend-the slats switch that does not_have a switch guard…[or anything similar]

Maybe there should be, but it’s still better to fire all pilots and ban 737s.

Re: Donald Trump/Joe Biden

Everyone. The US doesn't have an aristocracy with legal standing. (Unlike the UK, where the idea came from, and a trial of a lord requires a three-ring circus.) It's not about legal standing. But I get it, we all tell ourselves stories in order to survive. For some, it's that we're all "peers&...

Re: I have failed.

Here are two things I couldn't get them AIs to make right despite repeated attempts, so please use your imagination:
-A cockpit full of guarded switches.
-A flat Earth supported by four donkeys standing on a giant Squid.
If it’s artificial, it’s not_intelligent…amirite?

Oh, the ironing.

Re: (More) IA image creation shenanigans

AI scares me.

Maybe not the AI itself, but that people will depend on it, or follow it.

…and, I still suspect The Squid.

Re: Bird strike CRM

Assuming a gun is not_loaded. Pointing the gun at someone you don’t want to shoot. Putting your finger on the trigger AND PULLING IT. But uttering clear is the issue. Actually, I’m confused now, because I want my pilot flying to utter “clear” or “I can’t see the runway because of duck innards and fe...

Re: Bird strike CRM

Berntie destroyed my efforts for additional memory checklists.

I guess I get it, that it’s sort of over AND maybe being quiet IS the indication that everything is ok.

I STILL say that “you ok?” seems like a reasonable thing to do.
