Your kids are going to learn what you did and when they do, they’ll never speak to you again.

Russian society needs to feel what Ukrainian society is feeling.

Some day your daughter is going to find something, or over hear something or in some other way connect the dots and realize you were one of those masked ICE agentsβ€”and she’ll never speak to you again.

Does delta even go to white plains? Wouldn’t jfk make more sense?

The subplot here is just how hard it is to get accurate numbers on TCAS RAs. I tried a search on NASAs ASRS site and one of the required fields is report number. If I knew the report number…

Israel is in total control of Gaza. The Palestinians are staving in Gaza. The world is watching it on TV.

Being horrified by what’s happening in Gaze is NOT antisemitism.

The obvious difference is then the Jews were being starved to death. Now the Palestinians are being starved to death.

Maybe they’re trying get out of the TCAS RA rut the media has been inπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Let me help you then. It’s well focused. It has a symmetry that almost makes it resemble a long exposure image of two pigeons rather than eight.

How did this happen? Did you sit in wait or pray and spray?

I think I’ve had a handful in my career hand have never felt it necessary to make a PA.

The recent Southwest RA was in fact a reversal of the original RA which means one of the aircraft changed its trajectory after the original maneuver began. This could result in a maneuver that is obvious to the passengers.

I’m going to suggest that most frequent fliers have experienced at least 1 TCAS RA in their lives and didn’t even realize it because it was flown as intended and the pilots didn’t make a PA after.

So I went to the nasa ASRS search and it won’t let me search for reports unless I know the report number which seems kinda silly to me.

3/3 …another NJ drone hysteria month, except with TCAS.

This study was just the Boston area a long time ago. It was conducted by Lincoln labs.

2/3 …We observed a total of 1725 RA events, corresponding to an average of 9 RAs per day, or approximately one RA every 116 flight hours.”

I know I’ve had a handful equally divided between GA and other airliners. If we’ve all had a handful…

If the media reports every RA then we’re in for…
