No shit. That’s one 70s throwback we can do without.

You know, the whole problem is automatic reflexes. I don’t give a damn about the frikkin’ squirrel or whatever that’s in the street; if it’s a choice between me or my car and that little critter, well, sorry lil critter. Nothing personal; I just value human life more.

It ran all right. Ran right into a house.

Couple of weeks late adding my 2 cents, I know...

No, I heard different voices for different tasks. One guy appeared to be in a leadership position, he was making the decisions on the ground stop and also getting the first responders moving. His was the dominant one on the recording I linked in my posts. The other fellow was dedicated solely to 1380, and his was the

Oh, yeah, of course not. When the aircraft is damaged, the command pilot’s responsibility is to get it on the ground safely. Period. She did the right thing by keeping her butt in the seat and using her training and expertise where it did the most good. Running around to look at stuff would be unnecessary, and

Man, I had no idea Kristen Wiig flew aircraft...

Tangential to this thread: Pictures from the NTSB seem to show a missing fan blade in the engine:

It’s amazing just how well good pilots operate. It’s as if in an emergency they shut down all the extraneous parts of themselves, and only the analytic and expert stuff comes out. It’s not like they’re machines - quite the opposite, they make decisions and improvise in ways machines simply can’t - but rather, as if

“Is your airplane physically on fire?”

Is Kato Kaelin still around?

Oh man, I would love that. I mean, I know they do those historic Grand Prix races there too, but that’s not the same. Seeing current LM GTEs there would be awesome. I’d almost enjoy that more than an F1 race.

What this person said. If you want to see “looks so slow”, watch Indycar at Pocono. They hit some of the highest speeds outside of Indianapolis there, but good GOD, those long and wide tracks makes them look like they’re crawling. Add to it the necessary depth compression that comes with long camera lenses (necessary

Well, Monaco nowadays is more for the Glitz & Glamour spectacle. The cars have evolved into creatures far too large for the circuit. I mean, there’s still something amazing at hurling those big beasts down such relatively tiny streets, but at the same time, it almost seems like a very poorly spaced time attack run

Yeah, this. I miss the innovation myself, but I also understand that sticking with that model would’ve priced Indycar out of existence. The missing technical development may rankle, but it’s not a bad choice considering that a very likely alternative would be the death of the series. And given that the racing is still

“Would I ride in this thing? Hell yeah. Would you?”

Well, I’d hope they’d be tiny Trabants. If they were huge Trabants, you’d know they were fake. :p

The Indiana DOT got off it’s butt and fixed a problem? OMG... Good work, man!

To be fair, that’s not really a proper equivalence. A color display isn’t going to be programmed to rainbow everything just because it can. It just means it can use color to convey information instead of shades of gray, or line thicknesses, or so on.
