If only there were a device to keep you in your seat when something like this happens
Damn
We almost got rid of Jimmy dore
stuff like this is why i'm lowkey terrified of flying also this isn't a shitpost
So you'd rather stick to the ground, where you can't dive to avoid an oncoming vehicle?
I can assure you some pants were shit on that flight
Shitpantsing then
Put your fking seatbelts on. All the time.
how that a shitpost tho
Because everybody on the plane shit themselves.
Anything about Jimmy Dore is a shitpost but which sub or whatever is this more suitable for?
Remind us who cut funding to FAA?
This is Joe Biden s fault. I don't mean he cut funding or anything like that, I mean he was literally flying the other plane. It was full of woke trans immigrants headed to Texas so Democrats can get more votes while simultaneously rigging the election.
Obama was copilot? Smoking crack in the back in his tan suit? With Dijon mustard?
it was the one armed man! you gotta believe me!

This ain't no shitpost.
You have to admit it'd be pretty shitty to run into another airplane in the sky though?
You're right, but I don't think The Internet cares.
Is gutting the federal government working yet? Is the swamp drained? Is the winning complete? Are my bigoted piece of shit nazi flag flying neighbors satisfied yet?

This is very dangerous. Time to remove regulations for collision warning systems on airplanes, so dangerous maneuvers like this don’t happen in the future
Tap for spoiler

Don't planes have seatbelts? How did so many people manage to fly out of their seats?
Also friendly reminder to everybody that planes are still the safest mode of transportation by a significant margin
Planes are the safest form of transportation if you look at safety per km travelled. If you look at other metrics, like safety per trip or per travel time then they are less safe than busses or trains.
Planes have nonetheless huge advantages over the others, like if you have to travel hundreds of km, or across the ocean. Cruising through the Atlantic in a Greyhound would be wild, though.
Last time I posted something about this, it was downvoted to oblivion. Glad to see that didn’t happen here. There are some statistical quirks that make this obvious once you think about it though.
Planes tend to make long trips, so anything measured on a per-km basis is going to be wildly diluted. Nobody is taking a plane to travel a few blocks. Something like a car will tend to make much shorter (but more frequent) trips, so the per-km stat won’t be diluted. But inversely, the per-trip stat will be diluted with cars, purely because they’re used much more often.

It sure feels like that margin has been shrinking in the last year or so.

TCAS is working overtime to make up for the years of neglecting the FAA.
Fuck Jimmy Dore, he turned against the queers. Last I saw a video of him interviewing with some bad-faith transmedicalist harassing people at pride acting all innocent like "I'm just asking questions" - his loud mouth was good as 2016 was going down but of course loudmouths don't always know when to shut it.
Yeah Jimmy Dore fucks around with Alex Jones. They can both go to hell

...should we hire more tower administators, and look into the epstein files?....
And this is why I don't fly anymore. It was never an enjoyable experience (except takeoff. Wee!!) and now it's even less worth it.
Now I find myself having a depressed opinion on the lack of train options.
Sitting in an airport right now. Great.
TCAS warnings initially come up about 90 seconds before a potential collision, and a resolution advisory comes up about 60 seconds before a collision. A resolution advisory is obviously a serious situation, but it’s early enough that the climb or descent commands are really not anything crazy, not anything outside a normal climb or descent. No one should be hitting the ceiling if a tcas resolution is flown properly.
