The headline alone should tell you it's a bad idea. Any time a union supports something, it's never good for consumers.

Perhaps the pilot was trying to create a graph that demonstrates what Joe Biden is doing to the U.S. stock market. Not sure why a Chinese pilot would do such a thing, but you can't argue with it's uncanny accuracy.

It's MEXICO. The only thing surprising here is that people aren't killed at this airport everyday.

The FAA provides the very best guidance that 1980's aviation ever had...unfortunately it's now 2022.

So am I going to have to pay an additional fee to check my bags on the bus or to get a window seat??

"Adolf" Putin and Russia's government are beyond contempt. No question. That said, how much more of our money are we going to pump into a losing battle?? Without actual military involvement (not just intel and armament) do we really think Ukraine can defeat Russia? How much deeper will our government put us into recession just so we look good to the world and feel better about ourselves? In the meantime, the invasion of our southern border continues unabated - the disastrous results of which are only BEGINNING to be felt.

Kudos to Virgin Atlantic and this pilot for doing the right thing when the error was discovered. How many times have we seen aviators make mistakes and yet continue their flight with their fingers crossed that nothing bad would happen? We all make mistakes, but the measure of a person or corporation is how they respond and rectify the situation to keep it from reoccurring.

If you've ever looked at the ADS-B tracking website and looked just at U.S. military aircraft in the air at any given time, you'll see a tremendous number of air assets (and many more aren't shown) including numerous C-17 and C-5 cargo planes. Why do we need to pay private contractors to haul this gear when we have all these air assets constantly flying training sorties? I know private contractors can theoretically do the job cheaper, but when we've already got capable planes in the air and flying similar training sorties this makes no sense.

Imp - Who will build all those black helicopters your government flies over your house??

Is it not hilarious that Boeing is taking a huge hit on the new Air Force One project?? Just another reason why nothing much is manufactured in this country anymore - total incompetence and misplaced priorities.
