An Israeli flag was raised and elevated to the same level as the American flag at the Great American Fair for the 250th anniversary of America’s independence.
Israel has nothing to do with the founding of America.
@Turbinetraveler@aviationblogs Why would they design the system so that if a gear selection is made on the ground with weight on wheels it results in the NLG being retracted?
If that’s what happened why say it collapsed as well?
🚨 NOW: An Assistant US Attorney is now INSIDE the Los Angeles ballot processing center, as @USAttyEssayli announces MULTIPLE federal investigations into voter fraud in California
Expose it ALL and prosecute!
All gear engineering has to be reviewed… can be redesigned so gear can not retract when under pressure …. Simple as that … gear can retract only when airplane in air … period. Have a nice day!!!
Here's some real footage on the job showing exactly what we're talking about on a 787 nose gear. Watch how the downlock pin goes in the right spot, and check that plugged hole next to it from the AD..
Boeing had already flagged this and issued a Service Bulletin to install a plug/cover in the wrong hole. FAA made it mandatory with AD 2019-23-07. Newer jets like the Lufthansa one should have had that plug from the factory. Not sure exactly how the pin ended up in the wrong place or if it wasn't Installed/seated right during the gear cycle check...
@BuzzPatterson@Turbinetraveler When I was younger used to blame myself, now I know purely bad engineering. They hired cheap engineering from India. Also USA full of DEI employees.
Bernie Sanders, campaigning with Graham Platner, mocks @elonmusk while pushing his bill for a "5% annual wealth tax" on billionaires (that is, confiscating assets whether they have chosen to sell them or not).
"If that bill were in effect this year, Elon Musk would pay 39 billion more in taxes... This confiscatory, terrible, drastic, radical piece of legislation would leave Musk with just $737 billion left to survive. Think he can make it on 737 billion? Yeah, maybe."
Of course, the key word here is "annual." What's left after 10 years? 20 years? And why is Bernie entitled to take those assets by force?
There’s an In-N-Out burger place right on the approach end of 24R. Best plane-spotting site in the nation.
When I was flying for Delta, I’d occasionally stop on my way home for Double Double Animal Style and to watch the jets
The humiliation for Donald Trump is playing out on the world stage.
Iran’s foreign minister is now holding public talks with country after country—Japan, Saudi Arabia, India, Brazil, the UK, Italy, South Korea, and many more.
Why?
Because nations around the world are recognizing that Iran now holds enormous leverage over the Strait of Hormuz and global shipping.
The U.S. Navy remains the most powerful naval force in history. Our service members are second to none.
But under Trump’s chaotic leadership, allies are adjusting to a world in which America appears weakened and isolated.
@Mike_Pence@Pat72852006 You trashed every principal Reagan had. Number one was loyalty. You stabbed President Trump in the back in day one.
Go to hell.
I don't think Americans have any idea just how badly they are viewed in Europe. Without any doubt, the US is considered by the majority of ordinary Europeans to be a bigger threat to Europe than Russia or China...
