A celebration of survival

All planes land eventually
I mean crashing technically counts as a landing. We can use the rocketry term lithobraking to make it sound better.
Rapid unscheduled landing, as spacex would describe it
Boeing Engineers are sketching their new planes in Kerbal Space Program
What is your “technical” definition of “landing”?
On the ground in sone form. Successful needs the modifier.
Quite a few have hydrobraked
Any landing where you can walk away from the plane is a good landing.
Any landing where you can reuse the plane is a great landing.
There are more planes in the sea than there are boats in the air. Thibk about it.
I love this comment. Please don’t fix the typo.
some land harder than others
Exactly, unlike hot air balloons (R.I.P. Moody's Mom)
maybe should clap when it successfully takes off without anything falling off
Just don't blow a whistle
But what if you see someth
Another senseless tragedy. Boeing sends thoughts and prayers to the family of littletranspunk
Trains are better than planes, because in the railroads, blowing a whistle is just a normal safety practice
Hands or cheeks?
Sure but what if they think it’s an approving clap vs horrified-for-my-life-now-relieved clap?
Add a firm but reassuring "Thank fuck for that! Now I can get off this death trap."
I flew on a Delta 737 with duct tape everywhere. Was delayed. Then an Airbus 321 and because of delay they shut off the engines. But then the auxiliary power unit wouldn't start to restart the engines and had to be towed back to the gate. I'm wondering who maintains thaes planes anymore, sketchy all around....
You know how every single industry is decaying and getting worse because organizations don't value the people who do the work and just amass wealth in the upper echelons of the enterprise?
Well they're doing it in the aerospace industry, too
Turkish Airlines now allows me to see the aircraft assinged to that flight, which makes it easy to avoid Boeing planes.
You’re assuming I wanted to survive the flight
Usually I boo when the plane lands safely. I want my class action payout or die trying.
That pfp is cool though.
