The EMAS was getting larger by the second. :biggrin:

Film studios are happy to move in if they're given tax rebates. I won't be surprised if all parties mentioned are offered those freebies. Hillwood is a Texas developer that is owned by Ross Perot Jr. and other Perot family members.

Try asking it to produce a limerick about you that includes the word "Nantucket". :biggrin:

The way I read it, Boeing has already implemented the fix on affected aircraft.

It was more creative version of the accidental gear up landing. :biggrin:

Even though he can't remember the accident, the report will inform him that his cavalier violation of the pattern management rules resulted in the deaths of two innocent people. One hopes that fact upends his life.

Perhaps @Zeldman and @Kristin can help you. They both have extensive PA-31 experience.

I always enjoy seeing photos of your bullets.

The lack of SOPs and a complete absence of CRM from brake release at COE to the burned pine trees at TRK is stunning.

I have read those same comments denigrating the captain's lack of experience in the 605. Bombardier made this comment about the 600 series aircraft (which I'm sure you're aware of) in their Technical Memo that was appended to the Flight Performance Study: The wing design of the Challenger 605...

This is just a bit unsettling. :rolleyes: From the links above: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) blames the problem on the six-month closure of its academy in 2020 and a two-year pause in on-the-job trainings. But the crisis appears to have emerged about a decade into an Obama-era...

I didn't say there was no data regarding issues. You missed the statement "In most cases there is accurate information to be had, one just has to look for it." Bias exists everywhere. Evaluating sources instead of nodding one's head and agreeing is required. In this case, using a survey...

The survey you linked was based upon crime rates between 2008 and 2015 and is totally irrelevant to today's smash and grab no bail world. That the reduction in crime paralled the Great Recession isn't surprising. That being said, I see similar claims in the media regarding the current crime...

Wow. The decision to circle to land was taken in an ad hoc manner. No briefing of the procedure, or discussion of a go around. The aircraft was high and fast when the descent was initiated from about 35 miles out, and there was no specific communication about that changing that until the stall...

Here's a comment never seen before in media coverage: Airplane crashes are incredibly rare events. The most recent crash at RDU happened in July 2022. https://abc11.com/rdu-flights-plane-crash-raleigh-durham-international-airport-medical-air/14726926/ I'm pleased to hear the doctor was...
