All very salient points, and of course there’s hundreds and hundreds of hours of training behind every pilot ensuring that they are up to the task of flying the plane, even when what they’re doing is monitoring the AP’s behavior, keeping tabs on local airspace etc.

Read it again.  Find the part where I blame this crash on AP.

Did I say AP was on? No.

I’ve said it and it bears repeating: Autopilot is not an autopilot. It is a glorified cruise control.

“Kit” is actually a very old usage in this context. For instance, “first aid kit.” You use the word to describe a collection of pieces all gathered together for a purpose. “Mess kit,” “repair kit,” etc.

Not gonna lie, that IS a red flag

“Yes, I’ve flown to Germany before.  But it was nighttime...and I didn’t land.”

WHOOPS, my second picture is of another car with a rumble seat and its luggage rack stowed.  I’ll keep looking.

We call it the trunk because, back in the day, there wasn’t a luggage compartment on the rear of the car. There was a rack attached to the back of the car, and to that you strapped down...a trunk.

Whoops, I didn’t see the bit about the wheels at first.

Send this pic to Qanon, they’re all about spedophiles.

Right?  Names are names and gay is gay, but names don’t define your sexual preference.  Get a grip, network twits.

Well, another sport-ute. Ugh, fine.

Those aren’t speaker boxes, they’re goiters. Seriously, they’re enormous.

According to certain vicious rumors around Trump and what I know of his personality, I fully expected the gold to be urine stains.

It’s weird, the stuff you file away forever.  If I had my druthers it wouldn’t have been a vignette from a TV show.

Ew.

This was Dr. David Banner’s car (they changed his name to David for the TV series because network execs though “Bruce” sounded too gay) in the flashback scene of the pilot episode of The Incredible Hulk, where the car is upside down and on fire and Banner can’t get his wife out of the car.
