Pulls pin and tosses ad hominem grenade. Walks out. Right...Good talk, Russ.

I must be missing the reference.

Pretty sure they don’t have ejection seats; bailout only. Glad they all made it!

The FO’s incompetence and the CA’s competence intersected well below the available recovery window in this circumstance. FO made an input well outside reasonable expectation, so much so that it produced a startle effect in the CA, fatally delaying the attempted recovery on his part. An antidote could have been a timely and assertive “MY AIRCRAFT” from the CA, but given the data, even that is left to doubt; regardless, no such declaration was recorded on the CVR.

Reason #369 why I’m so glad to no longer be traveling with the circus. ...small j vs big J? WTaF? The very definition of dodging valid feedback.

In 3y the regionals will be back to picking up .mil with R-ATP mins. If you can sprint to an EP qual, you could potentially go straight to a major.

Don’t think that’s normally a thing in the case of injuries and no fatalities.

I might be wrong on this (second hand rumor) but I think it was implemented in some form in the RPA world. Funding to go flying at the local FBO I’d heard. Correct me if I’m wrong here.

Or, hear me out now, these protests are being organized and participated in by people who have lost their income by excessive response to the threat, while those with a recession proof stream of income write op-Ed’s about “dark money” (which makes me think Soros actually...).

So was Welsh. Lots of hopes were high. And he decided to front load a RIF and then cash in all of his chips trying to park the A-10.

Yeah, Freedom Mortgage can go get bent. I noticed immediately that my payment didn't go through, antennae went up. Called my servicer (Dovenmeuhle), who said that the transfer was in progress, but that federal law prohibited any penalty or adverse action for 60 days due to the transfer. I even went the extra step and reached out to Freedom; same answer. 60 days. Got it. So, about the 45 day mark, I reach out again to Freedom to make my payment and set up auto pay; lo and behold, there's a $25 "VA Inspection Fee". According to them, it's not a penalty, but a VA required fee since I was so far behind in my payments. They seemed to give a shit that it was their timing (triggering the transfer right at my payment date, therefore I start out 30 days since my last payment) and that I was talking to them to pay within days of the transfer. Moving this summer. Going to do all I can to ensure that sketch outfit doesn't end up servicing any future notes if I can.

K4 pay isn’t spectacular, but it’s not Atlas by a long shot. That said, they asked for volunteers. They got plenty. This has been a win for those guys.

Don’t know how long it’s been since you’ve been to WUH, but the view out of my 30th floor of the Hilton didn’t look very rural. That’s not to say many other points made (health care quality, dis-information, etc) aren’t valid.

One of the toughest concepts for the average joe to wrap their brain around is that inflation isn't just something that happens naturally, as we've been conditioned to believe, and at the end of the day, it is really a back-door tax.
