That's the spirit lol

 Travelers wear pajamas to airports in protest of government request...

Don't tell me what to do . . .

Hundreds feared dead after Air India jet crashes after takeoff

Black Hawk helicopter collision with passenger jet was part of a routine, annual re-training of night flights on a standard corridor for a continuity of government mission

 Crashed US Army Black Hawk unit was responsible for doomsday readiness

... The three soldiers killed in the collision were part of the 12th Aviation Battalion at Fort Belvoir in Virginia, whose responsibilities in a national crisis include evacuating Pentagon officials. Another 64 people were killed in the passenger plane. ...

Trash headline from Drudge says airline CEO blames US Army for last night's collision at DCA

 I've watched the videos. He doesn't blame anybody. The helicopter collided with the passenger jet on its descent to land at Reagan National. We don't know why.

Meanwhile Trump is already shooting his mouth off about DEI under his predecessors being to blame when there are still bodies in the wreckage in the water.

Trump sucks. Drudge sucks.

 

USA fascist police state to expand facial recognition to over 400 US airports

 TSA has deployed identity verification tools at more than 80 airports thus far, with the ultimate goal of expanding the technologies to over 400 airports in the coming years. These new units, known at CAT-2 systems, take real-time pictures of travelers — the “face capture” aspect of the tools — and then compare the images against their scanned photo identifications — in this case, in a process known as “one-to-one” facial recognition. ...

“On average, the TSA CAT-2 identity verification process took 23 seconds per person,” the analysis said. “It took well under 30 seconds for all demographic groups, and all demographic groups were within a few seconds of the average.”

More.

Never fly.

Swim.

First it was a window which blew out, then it became a section, now it's a panel, but it will never be a door, which is what it really was

Alaska Airlines grounds Boeing 737 Max 9 for checks after window blows out in midair

Reportedly a boy lost his shirt out the "window" and a bunch of cell phones got sucked out at 16,000 feet, and:

It later emerged that Boeing staff, in internal messages, were cavalier about FAA regulations and critical of the Max's design. One said it the aircraft was 'designed by clowns who in turn are supervised by monkeys.'

 Look at this update to "section" lol:

Not flying at all is my way of fat-shaming people

West Virginia still has no cases: Boomers say it's the moonshine, zoomers say it's the meth, I say it's because they don't fly and no one flies there, at least on purpose

Banning drinking on airplanes would improve everyone's experience because no one would fly anymore

If only this is what Robert Redford meant

I wonder how many illegals get the full-frisk TSA treatment while flying free on United

You ask me why I refuse to fly?

Here's why:
