Shrooms do not show up

 

They said they were portobello s

 

2 private planes clipped each other at Hobby in Houston and shut it down.

*while taxiing

 

Never touch tips.

 

But if you do, do so gingerly

 

Looks a little worse than a clip while taxing.

 

well shiiit, they updated the article

 

Milliseconds/inches from everybody dead or in the hospital.

 

so it was User error and not something that should scare someone that is flying an A350 in 10 days

 

As long as you don't run into any Japanese Coasties, or rather they don't run into you

 

5 dead

 

Correct

 

It looks amazing that everyone on the Airbus survived.

 

Crazy

 

2024 not looking any better for Alaska.

Looks like they only made it to 16,000 feet. Would have been much worse at cruising altitude.


Can’t imagine how much that sucked for the passengers near the hole. 475mph next to an opening like that had to be terrifying.

 

Unoccupied window seat... dammmmnn.

 

now now, looks like it only sucked out the seat back

 

Did it start unoccupied or become unoccupied…

 

50 minute flight or 16 minute flight? That’s quite the discrepancy

 

I think I need to start choosing aisle seats from now on.

 

And a t-shirt.

 

From the ADS-B data it was 5:07-5:26 takeoff to touchdown. The 50 minutes may be the rough gate to gate time?

 

Not very exciting video from inside.

 

As someone who is terrified of flying and flies Alaska to PDX monthly...fml

 

What seat are you?

 

Usually 1C but maybe I'll start doing 1B so that there's less of a line of sight for me to get sucked out of the plane.

Haha just kidding but not really

 

oh cool, a 737-MAX8/9, so it's not even like it was some 20 year old bolt that wore down

 

Definitely shouldn't have been standing there.

 

Classic air travel

 

This woman recently died in a plane crash

 

I kept getting recommended videos breaking down what happened in this crash a few weeks ago. I had no idea who she was

 

I wasn't aware of her channel until she passed but man watching some of her other videos makes pretty apparent that she was in way over her head.

Also the NTSB report said they recovered "intact video recording equipment" so her GoPros almost assuredly recorded the entirety of the events leading up to and including the crash

 

Oof I'm sure that footage is horrifying

Man, watching that was stressful. It’s surprising she ever got her license in the first place. She was making so many beginner mistakes. And then her dad was going to start messing with the fuse box mid flight, ffs. I’m surprised she posted that video, and that no one tried to intervene with her flying solo after watching it.

 

Compressor stall

 

Flying a 737 max later today

Beer me strength

 

It’s thought that this guy committed suicide
