You need to up your game. RADAR and satellites are not the same. And you doubled down and said it multiple times.

Photos from Souda Bay show no battle damage to Ford and it's already left heading back to the US. These repeated posts about the 12-14 months number both here and in other places show a complete lack of understanding about the maintenance needs to a ship after nearly a year long deployment.

The middle circles of the shoulderboard symbols are colored in so looks like the equivalent of an LTC.

Hope they clean up LA before the Olympics in 2028.


They have less than 3 months until the World Cup. Everything will get magically cleaned up for a month, dems everywhere will declare everything is great, then it'll be back to shite by August. Then they'll do the exact same thing in 2 years.

Call me crazy, but it seems like a REALLY bad idea to have anything cross the runway especially in low vis, at night, etc. without shutting the runway down temporarily. Just divery traffic to the other runway, if that's not available take a minute to shut it down.


Again, it all depends on the spacing of traffic. If somebody is on a 1 mile final you're not clearing anybody to cross. If they're on a 3 or more it is plenty of time. Same with if you're crossing a departure runway, you simply hold departure traffic for 30-60 seconds until crossings are completed. Aircraft and vehicles cross active runways all the time without incident in all weather conditions. There is prescribed standard terminology for these types of operations that I didn't hear in the snippet of the ATC comms from the video.

There's also a reason why you'd normally have separate controllers for ground and landing / departure clearances, so no one link gets overwhelmed in the tower.

I would've thought that to send a firetruck across a runway you would've be sent the current plane on a go around


Plenty of time for a vehicle crossing if next plane up is on a 3 mile final and the previous aircraft just passed by.

One thing in the posted clip I didn't hear was any communication that said crossing "approved." It'll be interesting to hear the entire comm chain once it's posted on YouTube, normally those go up pretty quick. Sad thing is we've had a lot of near misses in the last few years so something like this was getting pretty close to inevitable, and that sucks.

That's after ATC told them they could go


ATC is in deep shite for not using standard terminology alone.
Kyle Chris you say? Iraqi? Gee, can't imagine what his intentions might have been with that name and nationality.

Obvious AI video generated by Israel. I was told with good authority on X the other day that he is dead, complete with the pictures of him being removed from the rubble on 2/28. His body was remarkably intact for having been killed by a ballistic missile blast and collapse of a building.

Yes, above is /sarc.

I'll bite. Where did you think this was going to be after 9 whole days?

500 US military deaths would be impossible to hide in the US. In Russia, China or Iran, sure. Not the US.


Agreed. The flight tracking sites alone would see the transport traffic to Germany and into Dover. People on the ground around Dover would report higher than normal traffic. Families would already be speaking out. And the point made elsewhere about Americans paraded on Iranian TV is 100% valid, after a week+ of getting bombed to hell and back it's absolutely certain we'd see POWs on videos.

Iraq had downed pilots on Iraqi TV in '91 within hours, and it was a lot of them.

So why would they publish this information? He is useless now


If, and only if, this is true, the Israeli's are absolutely going to rub the regime's face in it. He was the handpicked successor to Soleimani.

This man has been both executed and provided safe passage to Israel just in the last 24 hours so who knows what's real and what's not.

I joined the line for the first time in 23 years two days ago. Companies are reacting strongly to the AI threat and still don't know what to do with it so they're putting off a lot of big investments or redirecting the money to AI. As an enterprise systems project manager, makes selling new work pretty hard right now.
It's been postulated for a while that Qaani is the Mossad mole in the upper echelon inner circle, long before this past Saturday. If there's any truth to the report that he's been detained that'll serve as pretty strong confirmation.
