No kidding.

Have her attacked by Canadian terrorists and see how calmly she reacts.

This woman was capable and did her job. Thats it. But because she has a vagina, its going to be spun into some mystical feat which is actually a slap in the face of what feminism "should" be as it seemingly assumes that a woman shouldn't be able to do what she did, and hence because she did it its somehow what, more impressive?
Completely agreed. What she did was absolutely badass but with her background I can’t I’m surprised she did this so calmly. She’s still a badass either way and saved many lives that day.

One of my engineering professors in college (taught mechanics of materials), worked for NASA. He mentioned that if the everyday person actual saw the outside condition of the planes that are up in the air everyday they would never fly again. It just isn't economical to make sure every single plane is pristine every time they hit the air. I can see how the issue was missed.

It was clearly a joke.

Never take anything seriously on the misc, this is the forum where alcoholics call out junkies and scumbags call out trolls!

I used to work with Avro RJ85 and also be a passenger every now and then. It would look a bit dodgy when on the ground but does it have a smooth landing! Cannot even tell when the gear hits the ground, old plane but still does its job

Did they say which? Both should be preventable either through turn down and part replacement or doing something the right way during operation.



Kudos to the pilot regardless of the genitalia. I'm sure the feminists will push her hard but I bet she's just looking at it as a pilot, male or female.
I don't know...I don't work for the FAA.

Per the misc...fat is defined at north of 12% so yes they can live past 90 you multi-account bag of meat.

If the cheater thing is in reference to cycling ...yeah...this is a bodybuilding forum and it's done a lot. Cheating would suggest I'm competing against other people that are natty...I'm not.

The thread erasing thing...I can't help you there. I know you like to make threads and when you're called out, you delete them but not sure what that has to do with me. I'll add you to my ban list.

Im not taking anything away from her. I would have had that sum b*tch in a fiery pile...With that said dont airline pilots repetitiously practice losing an engine and cabin pressure in simulators and on training flights? In addition dont they have to certify via a trainer that they can handle these types of situations...

I understand being called a hero if you have a catastrophic incident and manage to land safely (a spin and recover/all engines fail/landing gear doesnt come down) but this seems to fall into a category of "expected recovery".

I havent followed this story very closely so am I missing something? (srs)...
