Thread revival 20+ years later!! šš Seagull smashes cockpit of Ā£73m Spanish fighter jet The moment a seagull collided with a Spanish fighter jet and smashed through the cockpit was captured in an extraordinary photograph. The Ā£73m warplane was performing in the Eurofighter display at San Javier Air Base on June 15 when it had a stroke of bad luck. The pilot landed and was unharmed. Aviation photographer Javier Alonso de Medina Salguero unwittingly captured the spectacle, only realizing when he checked his camera later on. Bird collisions with aircraft are a regular occurrence, with 13,000 reported annually in the US alone. But for a bird to shatter a pilotās glass window, and for a photographer to capture the scene, is exceedingly rare.

I watched the Mover and Gonky podcast on this incident, they basically said the same thing! Itās always good to keep the PA announcements short and sweet!

Commercial 767s donāt carry 463L pallets that have to be interchangeable for every USAF cargo and tanker aircraft.

Buff was doing a flyover for the state fair about a mile off the approach end of 31 while the 175 was on short final. All this happened between 500-1000 agl. It probably was a bit sporty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He's got a pretty bad conspiracy detector, based on the past five years or so

@Negatory My post was completely apolitical and applies to every person, regardless of party, or any other, affiliation. You should try that some time, itāll probably reduce your blood pressure.

You clearly want Trump to be guilty of anything that can stick. Are you NSAplayer's side account? BTW, since when does America hold the president to a higher moral standard? Roosevelt, Kennedy, Clinton...all adulterers that didn't do a good job of hiding it, and all would have been re-elected if it weren't for death or term limits. Not that this is pertinent, but that statement is ignorant at best. I have zero desire for a pedophile to be in charge of our country, just like I didn't want a mentally impaired octogenarian in charge. The difference is myself and others on here don't hope for the worst because we don't like the party the current president represents.

You donāt know that. Many witnesses have alleged wrongdoing, and many may come forward to substantiate the dozens of claims against him if more concrete evidence were to emerge to substantiate claims. And there are tens of thousands of videos and pictures of abuse. Time to have some more people comb through that. On top of this, the bar for the president or politicians is not simply criminal charges. We expect our politicians to hold themselves to a moral standard, and many voted for Trump to release the files. If they were to find out that Trump was a large part of the files, that would significantly impact politics - mainly in that it would bring some people crashing back to realization of the swamp.
-
I mean, are these files newly convincing anyone that Trump has an unsavory personal history? It's like people who were suddenly shocked to see Joe Biden was old after his poor debate performance - like, where the hell have you been the last couple years?

Completely agree they should release everything to āput it to rest.ā Let the chips fall where they may. That said, nobody is going to prison solely based on being on a list/in someoneās āblack book.ā That kind of evidence proves nothing criminal, and anybody who thinks a list alone will drive justice is naive. There needs to be hard evidence of criminal wrongdoing, and unless a jury/judge is seeing photo/video/DNA evidence, nothing is going to happen.

A Minot B-52 and Skywest RJ had a ānear missā which required the Skywest to maneuver abruptly. No ADS-B data is available yet to see just how close they got. https://www.newsweek.com/delta-pilot-b-52-bomber-minot-minneapolis-2101599

For the do your own research folks - aka this forum - Trumpās name is circled within the black book. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book. Here is the explanation. Source: https://joshwho.net/EpsteinList/black-book-unredacted.pdf All they have to do to prove innocence and stop this is release the evidence and prove that it does not implicate the admin. No im not saying to release videos of child abuse, but they should absolutely release testimony about the contents of said videos. All they have to do to imply guilt is to gaslight the American people that the evidence doesnāt exist. 70% of Americans donāt believe the admin right now, this has the potential to turn into a bigger scandal.

By claiming that the files were a hoax designed to incriminate him, he has already implicitly admitted that heās in them. It was probably completely accidental, but think about it: why would he claim that the evidence was faked to make him look bad if the evidence didnāt make him look bad? As soon as he claimed it was a hoax to hurt him, he admitted that there was evidence (contrary to Bondiās claims) and he was incriminated by it (in spite of his own claims). Edit: Remember when multiple folks on this forum were eating this up?

Same deal with this viral vid of the Purple MD-10 on final without the gear. After this incident, the Captain was discovered to have had a brain tumor.

My wife just had to deal with this in her career field (veterinary medicine) and after seeing what an absolute pain in the ass the entire ordeal is, it's now my number one reason why I am against changing the retirement age for pilots. If we raise it again, we just need to admit that we are marching towards no age limit, and I really don't want to turn the first officer's responsibility into monitoring and reporting older pilots for losing the mental capacity to handle the job. And that's exactly what's going to happen. Everyone who's been through a first class medical or annual recurrent training knows what a joke it is. Wanna raise the retirement age? Fine. Then we do real, randomized, individual cognitive testing. Every year once you turn 55, and before your next flight if you are reported by another pilot. Easier to just keep it at 65, IMO.
