A buddy who is a long time captain at Delta posted today basically saying through no fault of your own sometimes your luck just runs out. I know they will find the cause and I seriously doubt there was thing anyone of these guys could have done. Same for the people on the ground including a baby form reporting. Rest in peace.

Trump and Hegseth have signaled potential obstacles to post service employment...we shall see if it happens. I was an SVP at a company and they sent me to the Kenan-Flagler Business School at UNC for a senior executive leadership development program. While I was there I met a lady who newly hired to be our company CIA account VP. He name sounded familiar so I googled her and discovered she was one of the 51 that signed the Russia Intel Memo about the Hunter Biden Latptop. I was absolutely stunned, does anyone bother to check these things? Trump was elected and he revoked her security clearance, she was gone the next day.

Probably cronyism. Thing is, the WH/DoD is not on his side, so why hire what amounts to a burning sack of shit into your company? Anyone here think Hesgeth loses track of him and the company benefits from his hire? Bold strategy, Cotton.

Access is all that matters, which might come back to bite them in the long run.

Do companies know what POS/D-bag/use your favorite adjective they’re hiring with these types and just don’t care, or are they ignorant to it because they only read the resume and heard what they needed to hear in the informal/formal interviews. How is a guard unit so much better at vetting people than billion dollar companies.

A friend in the cargo world and knows a guy that flew that jet a week ago heard the flight was delayed 2 hrs for engine mx.

Sure thing! DM me your .mil and I’ll send it to you on there.

There was a similar crash of a DC-10 in 1979 in Chicago where the engine on the left wing separated from the aircraft.

Revival topic. I received an email from MyIDCare saying the credit monitoring I have because of the OPM data breech 10 years ago is about to end. I wonder if the chiners will delete my data at the same time. Nah. Since OPM lost my data, they can cover the monitoring for as long as the criminals have it.

Looks like the helmet did a good job of containing the mess

One of the pilots was a Squadron Mate of mine but his name hasn’t officially been released yet. I was an FE on the DC-10 for about a year and I don’t know if the MD-11 was similar but I was never impressed with the aircraft especially the slat system. For an aircraft that was so dependent on leading edge slats there was a lack of backups to prevent them from retracting if you lost hydraulics! Pictures have surfaced of the number one engine and nacelle cowl laying off the side of the runway and I have heard from the grapevine that another engine was damaged as well.

It's more likely that he was here under a different username. That seems to be another Hallmark of his type. They say enough stupid things they no longer want to be associated with, so they hit the reset button. It's ironic, because they just end up posting the same stupid shit anyways. 🤷🏻♂️
