I definitely cannot say the name of the city in my head without thinking "makes sense to me."

Wow. Another example of misleading and inaccurate reporting. Possible compressor stall followed by a rejected takeoff. High speed at gross weight rejected takeoff generates a lot of heat which causes the fuse plugs on the tires to melt, hence the blown tires. Not a common occurrence but it isn’t the emergency that media makes it out to be.

If you don’t pay attention to the news, you’ll be uninformed.

If you do, you’ll be misinformed.
