Most of the airports that private jets fly in and out of do have a tower. Also, there’s a lot of ground holds recently due to en route controller shortages which limits how much traffic can be in the air, which of course affects private jets as well.
Maybe we’re all being so pessimistic. Maybe all that money is going towards proper climate control and plumbing, proper kitchen facilities, and proper hygiene facilities. Maybe they learned from Alligator Auschwitz, right? …right?
$46 400 per bed to build this camp. The motivations are clearly not to benefit the average taxpayer. They’ll gleefully spend hundreds of millions to treat humans like garbage.
Back in 2018 there was a crash in Canada involving a failed TT strap, so Transport Canada issued an AD about that particular manufacturer’s TT straps. The FAA put out a similar AD in September 2024. A failed TT strap will cause a rotor separation. I imagine that’ll be one of the first things they look at.
I can never quite grasp how he’s using his right hand in this photo. Why is he holding his sunglasses with the inside of his thumb and his ring finger? It seems so unnatural, like the way someone with impaired motor control would use their hand.
We just swap who flies each leg, I’ll do one, the other pilot will do the next, and so on. Seniority really doesn’t play into it at all. Usually we don’t leave the flight deck to deal with emergencies, we rely on the cabin crew for that.
I’m not sure I’d jump straight to “dumbass”. Orlando is a giant concrete jungle where basically everything looks the same. I can definitely see how a mistake could be made, however there is inevitably going to be some other factors that led to it. Maybe fatigue, maybe distractions, maybe shitty pilots, but we don’t really know yet.
A lot of it is likely on consignment, especially distributors and liquor stores, so the distiller doesn’t get paid for it until it’s sold. So it can either sit in a warehouse or the distiller can take it back, it’s their choice. In cases where it isn’t on consignment, warehousing it rather than selling what you’re already paid for at least ensures that the distiller is impacted by the entire duration of the tariff, as people can’t still buy their product for a while while it lasts and then the seller just immediately resupplies when the tariff is over. Storing it means when the tariff is over there’s still a supply to sell before they purchase more from the distiller. This would be the situation for bars and such, but it’s a big liability sitting on their books, so I imagine most will probably sell their remaining stock, which I can understand.
Lol, I thought the same. Ketchup and All Dressed are the two best flavours of chips, both are Canadian.
It was a Mexican registered jet, so I assume the pilots were Mexican. I’m willing to bet that’s where him and his band of racist idiots will direct their blame.
I have seen a lot of homeless in downtown Toronto who have a cart or backpack of belongings, and sleep directly on the subway vents with no tent. I get what the other guy is asking, I also don’t see how these metal silhouettes are going to stop someone sleeping on that grate.
Would that bring your loved one back?
Worth keeping in mind his pension is definitely in stocks (and other investments too, of course). So he doesn’t own stocks, but the portion of the pension he owns is stocks.
Learning is great, especially when it costed nothing!
I spread a bunch of clover seed around my yard, and where the grass was struggling (I don’t water or fertilize at all) the clover took over, and where the grass was doing ok naturally the clover sort of let the grass have that space mostly. Now the whole yard looks nice, and the clover is just fucking loaded with bees all day. It’s great. My dog just lies in the lush clover and watches the bees buzz around.
