What are the odds.... Looks like her flying hours were light, and lots of non-flight focus. She might have only had 3 years flying experience; how many BH pilots are promoted out of ROTC? What were her pilot test scores? Same for her male colleagues.Capt. Rebecca Lobach.

Instead of making assumptions about his philanthropy, why don't you look it up! He has supported multiple causes to help people in need. Did he give money to Democrats, yes, according to Wikipedia:tequila4kapp said:
"…he remains a dedicated philanthropist…"
Translation: a bid Democratic donor.
I can't see these things without remembering Biden giving this award to Soros then giving the speech the next week lamenting our democracy being threatened by oligarch billionaires.
It's okay to let these guys just run the government as long as you are honest about it!tequila4kapp said:Did you miss the point? Because obviously both sides ***** themselves to big money people. But only one president gave one of those guys the highest civilian honor in the land then turned right around and warned us his ilk were a threat to democracy.DiabloWags said:tequila4kapp said:

You're wise to distrust sock puppets. I was being sarcastic. Being 2500 miles away, it's probably just wire service information, though they could possibly have reached out to Boeing employees that want to trash their competition.going4roses said:

It doesn't matter the job role.
The conversation pushes the theory that certain types can't perform.
Remember when it was a race-based theory?

From what I've seen and read, the plane was flying through conditions conducive to icing for the entire hour of flight time. Bering Air has the best anti-icing equipment available for relatively small planes, but there's a limit to how much it can do. The Flight Aware data showed the plane slowing down and descending before it crashed and that's consistent with wing icing.chazzed said:

There was another plane crash last night. Aren’t there more productive things you should be doing?

I knew if we waited long enough we would find a crash we could blame on Libtards and DEI.
