The pilot who was stabbed/cut was able to open the cockpit door so passengers and other crew could access the cockpit. That dude was thinking!

Don't give up on those FOIA requests, guys. I just heard that an appeal for a FOIA from 2023 on CARES Act funds awarded in 2020 should be generating new docs. I can hardly believe it. colleenmondor.substack.com/p/57-it-took...

FlyDubai Air 1073 is one of the scariest aviation incidents in recent memory! Facts are still coming in but here is what is known. A physical fight broke out in the cockpit between the Captain and First Officer.

College football players are professionals and should be treated as such. The amount of work these professionals are doing rivals the NFL and to expect them to also take classes is such bs. I have so many thoughts on this but what Congress just passed is not the answer.

Dear British Airways: This very public thread has shown your airline to be a primary example of some of the worst customer service in modern airline history. Diversions for medical emergencies happen, but everything after that is on you. You guys need to be shelling out refunds BIG time.

You don’t have to agree with one another to recognize that the government should not get to decide which journalists have access based on whether it likes their reporting. This is exactly the kind of solidarity we need when press freedom is challenged. 💚✊

The rule here is whenever we watch a serious intense movie, we will always take a music break afterwards. Each music video shown were either featured in an aviation film or preflight entertainment. I have turned off the fasten seatbelt and its time to dance about the cabin of Fancake Airlines!

Becoming a commercial pilot is not an accessible job. It costs more than a four year degree to get the certificates, ratings & flight time you need to even begin to be considered. Its an Incredibly expensive career to pursue. www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...

Jobs that earn six figures without going to college (and why they are rare)
Occupations like air traffic controllers surpass traditional skilled trades in earnings but still require certification or specialized training, a study found.

The Federal Aviation Administration. That’s what I’m thinking about today, the quiet and consummate professionalism of the FAA employees who called a ground stop, then shut down US airspace & then worked quickly & efficiently to assist pilots in safely finding airports to land. The FAA did its job.

I'm no fan of Duffy or Bedford but many accidents are a long time coming, (even years in the making), like DCA. Also, there were over 275 Part 135 (small commercial) accidents between 2021 & Dec 2024 resulting in 122 deaths. Blaming Duffy isn't the answer to keeping politics out of aviation safety.
