World War III Updates
Another important distinction is that while losing Afghanistan, it wasn’t an existential threat so we had the luxury of pretending to avoid civilian casualties more than we actually did. So it’s pretty ridiculous that Biden has the nerve to try to tell Israel how to conduct war after losing two urban wars. The only one that we “won” was bombing every city block to exterminate ISIS. Hamas (and by proxy Iran) are an existential threat to Israel that embed themselves in the local population as shields. They’re honestly doing a great job limiting their impact to civilians. All the numbers are dubious in the news because it relies on what Hamas reports. Definitely trust those guys.

Alaska/Hawaiian should be entertaining as well.- The new airline thread
We can’t have two airlines combining and “reducing competition” and “raising prices.” Instead we’ll have the government artificially reduce all commercial flights into the northeast for the summer and then block a useful merger that puts one out of business.- Retirement / Separation Considerations
Refreshing to hear someone recognize this with a good plan in place to lead for the future within their organization, rather than stick around past their usefulness just to be in charge.- Music

If it was a day of Mil Leave, seems like it wouldn’t meet the company’s “day off” definition. Did you drop ML on a day that was off?- Concept aircraft

Yeah…but it shouldn’t be on without visible moisture or a contaminated surface, so this damage occurs outside of proper system operation. Not a real shocker.- VRRAD is Back!!
I think we’ve found that they only consider 1s and 0s of end strength numbers and green chiclets on slides, let’s be honest. You know they’re not known for considering the second order effects.- VRRAD is Back!!
Those same category of people did VRRAD to the Pred/Reaper late 2000s, thick reading glasses, hunt-and-peck typing, and all. It was humorous, but it was great when the 64 y/o Lt Col had your back.- World War III Updates

If you pay United a few extra carbon footprint dollars, they’ll put it straight into Scott Kirby’s pocketbook and fly you just the same.- The new airline thread
The even crazier part is I learned that Ryanair has that extra exit not because they fly the Max 9…but because they have their own model where they cram 200 people into an 8 size airframe that US carriers put maybe 170 people in.- Retirement / Separation Considerations
