There is absolutely nothing out of the ordinary about this. All aircraft avoid thunderstorms for many reasons other than just lightning and if you are just flying home from an air show it makes a lot more sense to wait till the storms are gone than risk losing a plane to a downdraft or something.

They have nothing to worry about, lighting doesn’t strike II

I was going to let it go until he called them both propellers AND rotors in once sentence. Jalopnik wouldn’t let an author say a car is turbocharged when it’s supercharged. What’s the difference?

That is not towing.....

That’s still a lot less than what we are paying, but not as bad.

I hear that F-35 Operators see this a lot.

Let’s say this is the primary cause of the long lines, for the sake of discussion.

This is exactly how that opening scene in fast and furious wouldve gone down in real life

It’s a story from August that other sites already covered in August, all working from the same press release.

Gizmag covered this story in August of 2015, presumably working off the same press release:

Ignore him. People (including me) are just upset Tyler left.

Hi Justin.

absolutely fake, but great nonetheless!

Anyone with an IQ over 80 can understand that correlation does not equal causation. Unbelievable. Even if this was valid, it’s not the speed that caused the deaths, it’s the shockingly low standards with which people are allowed to drive and the resulting otherwise avoidable “accidents.” Maybe we should lower the…

Oh boy, here we go.
