Hawkeye, because it's big and somewhat unusual, yet not entirely ugly.

The natural cave at Bรฉdeilhac was converted by Dewoitine and then by the Germans into a factory during the Second World War.
In 1972, test pilot Georges Bonnet, piloting a Morane light aircraft, successfully landed in the cave and took off again.

8 October 1937 | Dutch Jewish girl, Sara van Hasselt, was born in Rotterdam.

In August 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz with her mother Heintje. They were probably both murdered in a gas chamber after arrival selection. Her father, Levie, also perished in Auschwitz.

Panel 1
A figure stands at a lectern 
"This image illustrates my theory that, presented with a sufficient quantity of intricate formulae, overcomplicated diagrams and impenetrable acronyms, an audience will agree with almost anything." 
The screen is completely packed with such things 

Panel 2,3,4,5.
Four audience members say enthusiastically: "My thoughts exactly!", "Hear, hear!", "I quite agree!" and "Excellent point!"

Lots of folks posting this. Look, you all knew ATC was understaffed. In multiple areas, the FAA is dealing with staffing issues. This is not new.

So, 6-day work weeks & now no paycheck. This should not be a surprise.

People are tired. If air travel slows down, we will survive the inconvenience.

Lasst Euch vom "PV-Optimismus" nicht tรคuschen. Behaltet die Fakten im Auge. PV & Speicher kommen seit Jahren (& noch fรผr Jahre) "on-top-of" Fossilenergie, nicht an deren Stelle. Deshalb gab es auch 2024 kein "Peak Oil". 2025 wahrscheinlich auch nicht.
2015: 95 Mio, 2025 ca 105 Mio Barrel pro Tag.

In NATO, nothing moves without the US, and Obama and Trump both opposed the membership historically. Whatever Merkel would have said would have mattered very little to NATO.

"Disregarding that at that point putin was already fully preparing for war" and saying that ->Merkel<- is responsible in the same sentence is quite the achievement.

Hmja. Gibt es Leben jenseits der 777X? Vielleicht. Fรผr viele Airlines? Nicht so viele. Hat Boeing die Hรคnde voll, und Airbus sich schon mal die Hรคnde verbrรผht? Ja.
Solange ausschlieรŸlich Emirates danach schreit, wird es wohl nicht passieren.

It might be a totally unrelated issue. Investigation necessary, given the context. However, this wasn't a total engine shut-off, obviously.
