One other compounding problem is that Delta's headquarters and main traffic patterns are on the east coast. Crowdstrike affected all the airlines at roughly the same time. This gave them roughly one to two fewer hours…
Funny you should mention WN. Delta's meltdown is the exact same scenario as Southwest. Crew scheduling is messed up, they don't have a way of tracking where employees are, if the employee is legal, etc and so the…
Have spent all my afternoon and all evening on a bridge trying to support flailing systems. Was supposed to be on a plane in 5 hours to start my vacation. Guaranteed it's not gonna happen. With hearing 911 and other…
This rollercoaster is not over yet. There's a crowdstrike issue causing windows machines/servers to brick globally and this industry is heavily windows dependent. It may or may not be related to the Azure issue but it's…
This is extremely disingenuous. A dutch roll if identified and corrected is not structurally dangerous to an aircraft but it typically signifies something wrong with the control surfaces which is a larger issue. In the…
Radar, planning software and routing have all gotten much, much better in the last decade. I believe even as late as 2007 or 2008, ATC was limited in the deviations it could do due to the track system still in use in…
I'm really at a loss on this news. All the employees at airlines in the US I know of have this drilled into them on a regular basis and it's just taken for granted that you report incidents when they happen (even when…
yes. It wasn't about cost at all. It's the same reason there are no cameras on the flight deck.
and the manufacturer can be held liable for lost revenue so even if the AC is grounded, you can get some $$$
The counter point to operating one type is on display here: if the regulator grounds the type, your whole airline is stuck. The only thing that eliminates/highlights issues is time. The 320 and 220 are faced with major…
It's weird to me that they unloaded anything in the hold for what should have been a refuel-and-go. Unless they're expecting you to be held on the ground for 3+ hours, they typically don't even bother getting the pax…
Every incident has to go into the carrier's safety reporting system which is then followed up by the FAA and/or NTSB. Even stuff as simple as a flight attendant feeling fatigued after not getting enough rest goes into…
If you are in Japan, I would highly suggest you visit the Toyota museum in Nagoya. Toyota started as a loom manufacturer and the museum has a ton of working artifacts (I recall one is from the 1600s). They have a tour…
How is making a rational judgement based upon low signal to noise ratios the sign of an immature world?
Yeah. I did. I can apparently read and do simple math. The monthly numbers for 2020 are: 12,852 12,842 12,797 11,914 9,713 10,442 11,006 10,577 10,921 10,457 11,196 11,169 which yields an average production of…
*citation needed. Oh nevermind. US Field Production of Oil: https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=M... US production in 2022 is up 29% over 2021 (when Biden took office) US production in 2022 is up…
that's probably true. I see 4 in the FAA registry. I don't see any MiG 25s but I see 5 MiG 29s in the FAA's US registry. Even the MiG 29 would get you marginally better Mach numbers (2.2 vs 2.0) and better payload. Plus…
Aside from the acres of hyperbole in this article: getting to the bottom of this article, this approach seems strange to me. Why bother with the F104? Feels like you'd want to maximize speed-at-cieling and…
Generous like this table from your article? cost(2013$) riders(thousand) cost/rider O-Train (lrt) 27M$ 14 1901$ ... If you don't understand why your table is extremely flawed then you should pull this article. If you do…
If you ever get the chance, visit the memorial and museum in Hiroshima.
Seems like an ok 'Hello, Unikernel' article if a bit forced but her point about bots mining on AWS actually undermines her deployment strategy: the miners have been compromising AWS credentials/security NOT boxes hosted…
Due to Chinese law not allowing foreign investment in several sectors (including online) Softbank and Yahoo do not own any of Alibaba. They own a percentage of a Cayman Islands holding firm that have contract(s) with…
aside from the plastic it sounds like he'll get on just fine at Apple.
Looks like a limitation of the radar system. The view that he's showing is a composite view (there's no weather radar that could cover all of Sweden from one single installation). I suspect that there are two stations…
not sure I follow? Most sql templates I have seen behave like Django's .raw() function (which inspects the resultset and auto binds to the object)
