I have flown into OGG twice. First time was on my honeymoon back in 2005, the second was two weeks ago. My wife and I brought our two teen boys on a family vacation.

Both times, my first thought after landing was that accident flight. Got to wonder what the crew and passengers were feeling. I also hoped that CB never actually knew what happened to her. Personally, I think it is very doubtful she felt anything, but will never know for sure.

I doubt C.B. was alive after she was thrown out of the plane. At the very least she was not conscious. The decompression also happened very quickly, so if she felt anything, it was only for a moment. A halo of blood with the shape of a head can be seen on the side of the aircraft. It is believed that is when she died or at the very least knocked unconscious. The force needed to cause that pattern of blood splatter is immense.

Lies have a well known conservative bias.

Weird deplorable ghouls.

Ooof… That looks EXpensive and not just for the CRJ. The larger plane (it looks like an A350, but not sure) is going to need its wing structure and wing box all thoroughly inspected. Outside of the engines, those are the two most expensive structures on an airplane. Not saying that it is going to be a write off for either plane, but it is a possibility. I’m curious if the bending moment of that impact was outside what the larger plane’s wing box was designed for. That force had to be huge, given the length of the wings on the large plane.

I look forward to seeing the analysis from some of the better aviation Youtubers on this one.

That’s not typical. I’d just like to point that out.

Oh lord, don’t go and listen to AC/DC then.

Art is subjective, so there really are no wrong opinions, just disagreements. I strongly disagree with you, but that’s OK. Fist bump bro, because it’s different strokes that makes the world go round.

Now, if you say such things about RUSH… cracks knuckles. ;-)

Skydiving.

I have ~4500 jumps and jump planes are very loud. Even with a full face helmet, jump planes are very loud and I didn’t use ear plugs until my last 1000 jumps or so.

I do have a fair amount of time shooting, but always used ear protection.

Protect your hearing.

I did not and today, at the age of 54, I cannot hear above 13khz when I used to be able to hear above 20khz. Part of that is age, but most of it is from not using hearing protection at concerts and other activities where I should have been using it.

Any constant noise above 80db will damage your hearing. 80db is a LOT quieter than you think it is.

We’ll, of course

It is very well known that facts have a left leaning bias.

Just like LIES have a well known right leaning bias.

In all seriousness, it just shows how far journalism has fallen, when that asshat weirdo of a Republican actually said that and wasn’t immediately called out.

Add to that:

Solid State Class AB and modern Class D amplifiers are far superior to any Tube amplifier. At this point, I would go as far that higher end Class D amplifiers are better than most Class AB at this point. Hypex and IcePower have made great strides in the sound quality of their amps, which are extremely efficient as well.

You want a lot of 2nd order harmonics in your sound! Great, get it through a DSP that will duplicate it through a modern amplifier and stop heating your room up using tubes.

OMG… I so completely agree with you and that terrifies me.

If the Supreme Court throws out a legitimate win by Harris, then they need to be removed and tried for treason. Because that is EXACTLY what it would be.

There are two types of people in the world:

1. Those that can extrapolate from incomplete data.

Chaos is just the first part of their plan. The whole purpose is for generating lawsuits that make their way to the Supreme Court.

The weirdo Republican’s entire plan is to have the SC hand the dictatorship to Trump, irrespective of the Electoral results. Harris could win Texas and be over 300 Electoral votes and the SC will still hand it to Trump.

Do you really think those 6 idiots handed the office of the President immunity? HAH! They handed TRUMP immunity. They absolutely will NOT see a Democrat with that immunity in the Presidency after the election.

It has to stay out of the Supreme Court’s claws. At this point, I really don’t see how it WON’T end up at the SC.

If the Legislature and Presidency go all Democrat, the very FIRST thing they have to do, is deal with that insane Supreme Court.

Impeach Thomas, Alito and every idiot that fat Cheeto installed on the court. Probably will get Thomas, but not sure about the other 4, but they need a reality check. Thomas needs to go to be tried for his ethic violations afterward. He needs to revisit his life choices in a quiet cell. Also, scrap that stupid fucking RV of his. Seriously, why the fuck do those things exist? Why not just stay in a nice hotel? It would be cheaper.

Increase the court to anywhere between 11 and 15. There are 11 circuits, so 1 SC justice for each makes sense.

Then that court’s first order of business is to shut the fuck up and do the job they are there to do.

Wait, why not reverse the previous decisions… Easy, because what has happened this year, can happen again… so…

Congress needs to codify women’s reproductive rights, Chevron Deference, and anything else these bunch of fucking morons did this past year. Congress should then take a real close look at any other “business as usual” things that go on in government and see how they could be better protected from the next assault from these assholes.

The Fucking Idiot Six on the Supreme Court put into very sharp relief the weaknesses in our government. It’s time to rectify that.

It’s not imposter syndrome for me either. At least I didn’t bring down millions of systems all across the world

Hey Crowdstrike…

That’s not imposter syndrome you’re feeling right now.

Pull the wings off of a fly!!!

Do you know what you get when you pull the wings off of a fly?

Well do you?

A Walk.

Irrespective of the humor, Noem is a very sick individual. She should not be in public, much less hold public office of any kind.

And where…

THE FUCK…

Is the FBI?

If that’s not a terroristic threat, then what is?

Skydiving is not like being in your mother’s arms. You’ve aimed yourself at a planet and it is you and only you that will save your sorry ass.

That much is true.

I retract my previous statements.
