@pindichhole What did Bangalore do to people? 😅

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@Arpita_pradhan_ It can happen and it happened to me. 🦉

@oyeabhijit Stopped working for a few of us too

@talk2anuradha And no we are not “elite”, don’t want to segregate her from others. This is in fact on mid tier- it can cost more in BLR. We purposely didn’t send to one of those coz we don’t want her to live luxury while we struggle to pay. Just chose school with a good approach to learning

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@talk2anuradha My daughter goes to such school. They engage them with different activities based learning. So you don’t get tantrums of I won’t go to school. Good teachers, safe environment. Really much more than ABCD - this is the age where they learn to learn, But yes high should be lower

When Air India 171 crashed, a pilot friend said to me , “wait and see, the easiest thing to do is to blame a dead pilot. The stakes for Boeing are too high for anything else to come out”. At the time I argued that the truth had to come out, it was not about air India, or India alone but the safety of passengers globally. Now that I see the leaks in the media in the last two days - air currents, WSJ - on fuel switches, in a likely bid to blame the pilots and avoid the root cause - which is an honest conversation about the safety of the plane, I am way more sceptical that we will ever know the actual facts.

How many of you know that on 7th July, a United 787 ( same plane as crashed) turned back to Newark after it had taken off citing a mid air mechanical failure ? There are countless such examples from the last few years involving the 787 Dreamliner

The media leaks have, rather vaguely, focused on fuel switches being turned off (and then on ) by Captain Sumeet and Captain Clive. Every single expert I’ve spoken to on and off record are making the following points-

1. Photos from the crash site reportedly show the fuel switches were found in the ON position, indicating that any movement of these switches would have been part of a recovery attempt of engines and not the cause of their failure

2. Incase of dual engine flame out the BOEING manual requires the pilots to cut the fuel switch and run them again to try and reset the engines - in other words if the fuel switches were cut and run again it’s what the pilots are required to do as per training not an indication of any error

3. If there was a complete and total electric failure ( said to be a rarer event than even two engines failing ) there is no clear demonstrable response to this in the Boeing training module say sources . The pilots would have had to basically improvise in the 20 seconds they had at low altitude . - this would be a highly abnormal scenario with no boeing checklist for total electric failure in conjunction with dual engine loss as per pilots I’ve spoken to

4. The RAT ( RAM air turbine ) auto deploys when both engines flame out . If even that failed to provided electrical back up and hydraulic power it points to a possible catastrophic systems failure and not pilot error

These are technical details for a general audience. But the important thing for us as laypeople is to ask whether it’s too convenient to have selective half whispers against two dead pilots with under 30 seconds to react, rather than raise tough questions about a company whose own CEO has admitted before the U.S. Congress to serious safety lapses.

The sooner the investigation report is made public the better. But the media leaks ( neither with much meat or substantiation) makes you wonder whether the report will leave all of us with more questions than answers about the safety of the 787 aircraft itself -

Do remember that after the 737 max incidents Boeing tried to blame the pilots ( one was an Indian ) before eventually conceding its own design errors and issuing interim directives till they could fix these.

Also remember this isn’t just a news story. Flying - and safety - impact us all. It may be easy to try and bury some of these unanswered questions under the convenient and unfair headline of pilot actions. But as you think of Capt Sumeet with less than 20 seconds to react and the behemoth that is Boeing with its spotty track record, ask yourself if the root cause is being addressed at all/ is the 787, a highly electric plane, truly safe ? 1200 of them are deployed world wide

@certifiedbkl You should neft it to him interest calculated with the description Good riddance so that it reflects in his bank statements. You be the bigger person simple.

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@333maheshwariii But if you’re pretty then can attract attention from beyond the network and networth. That’s how it works in arranged marriage.

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@Naina_2728 @amuldotexe Dyson it’s helped a lot

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@plastic96_ I’m one of those who had a kid a couple of years before 35 coz career in startups, hadn’t met the one till 30 etc etc. I can confirm that motherhood gonna be like a bad dream come true for the first 3 years. Think anxiety, back pain, bad days, low energy X 50. Womanhood is hard.

@Akshat_World Every time I see this guy’s post I get depressed. You maybe saying the truth but it takes away even the small piece of joy and relief we may have in our ordinarily lives.

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@A_K_Mandhan Lol 😂 I was just thinking how did he do what I haven’t been able to do with the same SIP amount 😅
I’m still running around the mulberry bush

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@Hot_potato06 It takes time, a lot of time. Even love marriages hit the boredom phase after the initial few months. Relationships need work and effort. Put it in wholeheartedly & set and meet high expectations. The rest will fall in place. ❤️🖖🏽

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@dravishakatoch Millennial here. You know the scenario isn’t very diff for my demographic too. But 2 things:
- Start investing early. Those back-breaking SIPs that I paid over 15 years while lamenting over the few hundreds left in the a/c end of the month? You’ll reap div in 30s
- Leave cities

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@MysticHeart25 Yes correct

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@keylimepie2000 After events ❤️

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@PoisonStroke @ByRakeshSimha I know! Like what empty? Maybe the overcrowded Baga maybe? I was in Ashwem a few weeks ago like every year & the stretch was as lively as ever. There was enough & more traffic in & around. But yes the service at art juna made me feel like 2nd class to firangs & questioned why Goa

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@spdebdip @venom1s And there will be other character flaws . We are people after all.

@Snowflokei @shydev69 It’s quite common for students to work odd jobs while studying in the UK. Coz it’s v expensive for a middle class student to have a decent lifestyle without burning parents pockets.I worked at a McD & other jobs. not a skill issue. It’s a practical soln, teaches dignity of labor.

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@thendovescry Don’t put a number to it just get married whenever you find the right person. And no it’s not hard to conceive in early-mid 30s. We all did it.
Just know that Early baby= no career, or late rewards. Late baby=no energy. Go find a sweet spot instead of blaming women for everything

[She Woolf @TheSheWoolf]

@thendovescry All the men getting worked up coz of fertility rates! I mean they’ll be the ones who marry girls 7 years younger than them and then complain coz no connection. 🤷‍♀️ They themselves are tucking timebombs coz device usage. 🙃
