It’s deeply troubling that emerging technology can be used to extract CVR audio from visualized data we share to help the public understand the circumstances of an accident.

Laws against releasing CVR audio exist to protect privacy, preserve the integrity of NTSB investigations, and out of respect for accident victims and their families during a time of tremendous loss.

NTSB is taking steps to address this issue. The public docket is offline for now, and we are urging X, Reddit, and others to take such disgusting, manipulated posts down. ⬇️

This week’s thing that happened just after we talked about it on AvTalk and hit stop on the recording brought to you by…

@SAS hi team, two questions: 1.) is the Chicago lounge closed? And if so where does one go now? 2.) does the 3 hour pre-departure limit apply to transit passengers as well?

[Ian Petchenik @petchmo]

@kq747 I think so, but check with the NYC Aviation folks to be sure.

[Ian Petchenik @petchmo]

But maybe don’t call it the SAM Act?

[Ian Petchenik @petchmo]

@SAS Is this available for all tickets, including those already booked?

[Ian Petchenik @petchmo]

This was exactly my experience. It was surreal and ultimately wonderful to watch young people genuinely enjoy something so much.

I saw Minecraft in the theater with my kids last night and am still processing what I saw. The only cinematic experience I can compare the audience participation to is Rocky Horror, except it’s with teenagers and their phones and the movie is not even a weekend old.

@ameeri359 @flightradar24 Preliminary reports are what we know happened. Final reports get to the why. We know the crew discussed icing and the use of Engine anti-ice, we also know that shortly after that discussion, the pumps were turned off. We know the sequence. We don’t know the root cause.

Congratulations Dominic!

I wasn't planning to go public until Monday, but wouldn't you know, a real journalist got the scoop.

One serving of ice is 4 oz. Huh.

[Ian Petchenik @petchmo]

@SAS why does this keep happening? Doesn't matter if I'm logged in to my account or not.
