I’m not even sure I’d want to risk my life for one quarter million. Even NASA with their billion dollar budgets had accidents. Kinda on the same plane as Musk wanting to get to Mars. Heck we can’t even keep out planet clean, Mars would be the same given enough time.

Coming out of the South Carolina plant I’m not surprised. There are drug problems there with some of their employees, that hets over looked or given a pass. Mostly marijuana stuff but still.

I’m dismayed at the reaction of the PIC over this. A quick look at distances should have sent a flag up. Vilnius was closer to Minsk. That was a easy check & verification. Reading all the “up roar” over this makes me think nothing will come of it. All the talking heads will/have been heard then all will quietly go about the day as if nothing has happened. I my opinion all commercial flight in, out, over this rogue country, just as N.Korea, should be stopped.

Laboratory and design analyst determine the time between inspections of engine components. Maybe that time will be looked at in greater detail on all turbofan engines. P&W isn’t the only manufacturer of turbofan blades.

Has anyone read the full NTSB investigation report? How it was determined a short circuit in electrical wiring caused the explosion.

The customer gets the screw job again while at same time my tax dollar supported them during the covid19 shutdown. So thank you JetBlue, I’ll choose a different airline.

First pick a day with no winds aloft. Dead calm else the picture in the sky gets redraws by mother nature.

Quote "Authorities believe the man was either impaired or mentally ill" I'd say that's a sure bet.

Funny when I see ALL seats full. Social distancing doesn't apply to air travel. Why? Money is the game here.
