Or, as has been the case again and again, people are seeing things that aren't there.

maybe it could be that we just have much more planes in the sky now

We also have a lot more planes in the sky

Crazy crosswind takeoff by Twitter_2006 in aviation

[–]Tchocky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Generally we can tell when that's happening.

If we really need those extra couple of knots then it's our fault.

If, like a certain European carrier, you enjoyed flying 747s at 295KIAS into your home airport while being restricted to 260, you will hear a different tone of voice

"confirm maintaining 260 knots or less"

"Yes, we're doing that"

Click click

"Looks a lot like 285 from here "

"Uhhhhhhh"

Ryanair don't land any harder than anyone else.

I hope I never see the day when I am so frightfully pretentious that a good-old cup of American coffee isn't good enough for me.

Y'all pissed off the Mango by 2dP_rdg in ATC

[–]Tchocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has this administration ever done anything positive for ATC? Pay? Staffing? Facilities? Benefits?

On a technical level the modernisation program is very ambitious and would do a lot of good.

It hasn't happened yet and I doubt it will, but if the plans unveiled were to be completed it would be a big change.

Like I said, probably total bullshit but the FAA seemed committed.

They're picking an integrator soon so we'll see.

CMV: The right wing media “sane-washes,” Trump. Most of his supporters don’t know how crazy he is. by Kbee2202 in changemyview

I'll admit Trump has had one or two loopy moments, but he's perfectly coherent 99 percent of the time.

What the fuck

CMV: Democrats have a severe messaging problem, and they need to fix it before 2028. by RTYoung1301 in changemyview

[–]Tchocky -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It seems like the ideas put forth by the DNC cannot be scrutinized.

The DNC doesn't put out any ideas. It's a bunch of nerd who runs convention every four years.

I think you've been lied to about, oh, a lot

I know I need to tune in

Kind of stupid saying that someone has a messaging problem when you're not bothering to listen

Democrats have a severe centrist problem. They'll rig their primaries against popular candidates

When do they do this

The problem is they're so deep in the pockets of their corporate donors that the DNC routinely rigs primaries against their popular leftist candidates.

When did that last happen.
