Reminds me of this.

The team says the coach isn't losing his job, BTW.

Ah, reminded me of when I lived in the same town as Munson, and saw the plane across the road before it was blocked off (it was on my daily route to work, road just off end of runway.)

Or on level ground. Park, plus parking brake, always.

And, to be fair, vice-versa.

All of the above points to the problem with bureaucrats; they cannot write a clear directive.

Not to mention that not all engine failures can be contained, and in the case of the woman partially sucked out of the window, that was a contained failure; the offending blade got kicked forward. Documenting this stuff is my day job ('til the EOM when I retire), and most failures are...

One little aside: an FAA "emergency" revocation, unless one is caught fueled with alcohol or drugs, takes months, and sometimes over a year.

Solid lead, and liquid mercury, can be handled with little danger. Certain compounds, not so much. Tetraethyl lead is bad, bad, bad, and bad. Warm up that mercury and inhale deeply, and become a mad hatter. It is exactly the villain it's made out to be. It's not crying wolf.

He had a history, and was likely watched more closely (hopefully!); and whilst that reading is just over the limit, bear in mind that if you assume that he waited the eight hours and still blew that, he was likely "faced" as we used to say.

We learned that as an actual technique. Works perfectly.

Are you suggesting that the airman lie? Because felony.

#8 ain't that far off.
