The tit for tat is kind of funny to me. Neither side is upholding any sort of standard. The left is completely out to lunch with its wild progressivism and violent activism. And the Republican Party, with Trump, now somehow whole heartedly supports policies that would have incensed “conservatives” not all that long ago. Sweeping tariffs, large spending bills, now we want to pay people $5000 per baby they have? To me, the Trump years will go down as one of the biggest wasted opportunities to have center right leadership in this country.

That’s a FlexJet aircraft.

This is why American corporations going the DEI route was so poisonous. They planted the seeds for the general public to not trust who they are putting in the front of airplanes by openly stating they would prioritize immutable characteristics as part of their hiring practices. The crazy speculation and blow back you’re seeing on social media is a direct fault of their choices and actions in the post 2020 world. It will take a long time to reverse the distrust; and it may never go away since so many out there still worship at the altar of DEI.

They are very lucky that whole thing didn’t go up in flames when the wing broke off.

I don’t fly anything with fancy glass in the GA world. But a Stratus providing ADSB in to ForeFlight on an iPad is tremendous SA. Not only do I get the targets like above, but it has their exact altitude readout and callsign and/or tail number. The last part is the real life saver, as I can hear what ATC is calling them and it’s so much easier to make sure you’re looking at the right target. Does Garmin not have the ability to show the extra data like callsign?

I’d love to see age 67 get approved with the caveat that they all have to go be regional FOs for those last two years. If they really think it’s an experience problem, what better way to help to go sling gear for a 29 year old CRJ captain!

What a friggin nerd. Also that’s the same logic the Army used to can flight suits for pilots back in the day.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills with how incredibly dumb some people are to be falling for this shit.

I don’t have AOC derangement syndrome, though I do think she should stick to bartending. But I saw the video and it looks pretty close to a Hitler move. If a bunch of us did that at work tomorrow we’d probably be out of a job, even if we did say “we won’t relent” with the gesture. She should know better, unless of course she did it intentionally. ————— Turns out that take sounds just as dumb the other way too.

People are so fucking dumb. Elon is quite obviously throwing his heart to the crowd. He literally says “my heart goes out to you”. Of course most of the people losing their minds over this have only seen a 3 sec gif of it on Reddit.

Great, June. Where the hell were they in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and half of 2024?

12 teams was a stupid idea. Should’ve just done 8.

My company sent a mass email with a direct tip line to the FBI to report drone sightings, with a special emphasis on the NYC airspace. 🤷🏼‍♂️ My thought though is how much of this is a self fulfilling prophecy where the same clowns that shine laser pointers at aircraft are now going out and buying drones and sending them up in the sky to really ramp up the hysteria?

Yeah, someone isn’t telling the truth and it could be either one of them.
