You realize every major US carrier has bird strikes multiple times a year?

I know this. However, with the death yesterday and now this people will think twice about flying them. Just the way people are

Why were they striking?


I'm guessing unsafe work conditions.

Southwest isn't having much luck flying Southwest the last couple days.

People said this about UA last year, and they're still flying them. They said this about SW after they had fuselages opening, and they're still flying.

Good. I was getting ready to book tickets with SWA for a vacation later this year. Maybe with all this negative PR, they'll run some discounts.

If the pilot was male, he is a true hero, patriot, scholar and gentleman

If female, it was her fault

Is this right?
