28. Bad seamanship is more common than you think.

Sun Jan 19, 2025, 02:50 PM

Sunday

And bad airmanship. I've heard ATC recordings where it was so bad you'd want to ban some foreign carriers from our airspace forever. Yet they still fly into JFK, O'Hare and others, much to ATC's annoyance.

Think I'll hold on convinced until the evidence supports it. Intentional? Possibly, maybe even likely, but some here act like they were on scene watching it happen. They weren't.
