Good explanation in a post below the article. "I’m an airline pilot that flew out of Chicago during this storm. What happened here was you have a contaminated runway, snow and ice with braking action advisories in effect, plus a strong gusty crosswind. After touchdown, the mostly likely cause...

Who investigates this? https://jalopnik.com/plane-stops-during-snowy-landing-by-stabbing-wing-into-1839780381

Not if there is a relative size and positioning signal emanating from the airplane. That way another aircraft would be able to "see" a plane and "know" where it is, and how big it is, so as not to hit it. Basically it identifies the plane, or other objects, tracks it real time, and stays out of...

For some reason that just looks scary. Beautiful...but scary.

Absolutely. If you loved flying you would want to do something that was familiar and routine. A preflight allowed this person to go through, one last time, something that they enjoyed. Of course this is assuming there was a pre-disposition to take their own life. Which at this point is 100% pure...

Wonder how long the annual would take on that plane :p

https://jalopnik.com/howard-hughes-spruce-goose-made-its-first-and-only-fl-1839567349 Do we have anything this big today?

6 lbs for that. How much do the newer ones weight?

Anyone seen a price for this option?

I think if the VisionJet is marketed towards family's and the usual pilot is just one adult member of that family, I can see this feature going a long way to easing the minds of the other family members. It just the next evolution of the CAPS system.

As a consumer of cool things, I like this. It's another step towards...something.

Opps. I missed the Bali to Australia crossing then got lost. And yes, when I typed "how did you get there" I did think about the "by airplane" responses but I just thought, maybe this one time, the low hanging fruit would remain unpicked. Ha.

I'm lost. How did we go from Malaysia to Australia?

Hate to ask but what's the cost?

Very cool trip...setting the standard.

That's a nice looking paint job. I especially like how you use a brilliant white base.

The story mentioned the arm and a foot. My guess is that this was not a "clean" cut but something that ripped and tore, causing more severe damage than you might see in a saw. It also repositioned the body which is why the foot was also involved. Also the prop, while moving fast, is really a big...

Couple of questions. Will this qualify as an NTSB investigation? and Will the engine require a tear-down?

Nothing funny about this. https://www.thedailybeast.com/womans-arm-cut-off-by-propeller-on-plane-her-husband-was-flying?ref=home

I have heard the controller tape on the news and had a question. Does everyone think he was appropriate in stating that he had jets coming in and did the pilot really need to land right now? Just wondering what everyone else thought.
