@abcnews That dreadful moment when you start reading what seems like an interesting ABC article, only to let out an audible sigh exactly 2/3rds of the way through as you realise the lefties have taken you for a ride once again. There’s five minutes of your life gone.

@DavidCrisafulli On what land is this drilling going on ? Has an environmental impact study been completed ?

Good morning from the Taroom Trough - the first oil field to be developed in Australia for half a century. National fuel security is about drilling, refining and storing fuel locally and we’re determined to lead the country and make it happen. We’re streamlining this project under the new Taroom Trough Development Plan - and today we’re calling on the Federal Government to do the same. We’re asking for it to be assessed under the National Interest Fast-Track Assessment Pathway to remove duplicated approvals and get fuel flowing to Australians quicker. This is a generational opportunity to ensure we’re not left at the end of a global supply chain.

Albo’s event horizon extends to the next election. That’s it. No belief system, no personal opinions, no care for history. Every word that exits his flapping gums has been thoroughly polled and vetted to death by political working groups. He says nothing. People tell Albo, ‘Free speech is a fundamental right’… don’t waste your breath on sophisticated topics.

@DrewPavlou @BillAckman Leftist operations like the ABC are the last people who should be trusted with facts and news. How did we end up in this position

Australia’s public broadcaster continues to wishcast US defeat in Iran. The loss of one 40 year old airframe over the course of TWELVE THOUSAND (12,000) combat sorties is taken as conclusive evidence of US DEFEAT This type of left wing agitprop disguised as “journalism” is absolutely poisonous to the future of the Western world because it’s designed to completely paralyse us and make it utterly impossible to conduct foreign policy. Seriously, if you can’t even risk losing 1 jet per 12,000 sorties, you may as well abolish the US Air Force and dissolve yourself as a nation. Which is ultimately what leftists like John Lyons want.

The ABC couldn’t reform itself even if it tried. The operation is completely infested with ideologically captured leftist activists…products of university indoctrination and driven by resentment…who prioritise their leftist causes (Transgender, Indigeneity, climate worship, Islamic sympathy, anti-Western sentiment, anti-male, etc.) over truth/news/impartiality.

There it is folks: Pauline Hanson wants to privatise the ABC via the paid subscription model (regional radio excepted). She’s confirmed this with Chris Kenny ‘Sky After Dark’. Does sidekick Barnaby agree? And what about @AngusTaylorMP and ⁦@mattjcan⁩?

@QuentinDempster @AngusTaylorMP @mattjcan The face of the Australia-hating, anti-white, hard-line Communists at the ABC when they find out they can no longer use taxpayer money to spread anti-white propaganda: (Btw it's a screen grab from an ABC kids show, where they were screech-rapping about how bad men are)

@aakashgupta All aircraft and ground equipment have ADSB and VHF. It would take one afternoon to write a ground trajectory prediction & clearance program

The air traffic controller cleared the fire truck onto the runway. Seconds later, the same controller screamed “stop, stop, stop.” The plane was doing 93 to 105 mph. Both pilots are dead. Everyone will frame this as controller error. One controller was simultaneously managing a United flight that aborted takeoff after an anti-ice warning, dispatching a fire truck across an active runway, and sequencing an inbound Air Canada landing at highway speed. At 11:40 PM. On a mandatory overtime shift at a facility that has been understaffed for years. A system that assigns one person that workload will produce exactly this outcome. The only variable is when. The FAA is short approximately 3,000 controllers. The headcount dropped 13% from 2010 to 2024 while flight volume rose 10%. Over 40% of the FAA’s 290 terminal facilities are understaffed. The New York TRACON, which manages the most congested airspace in America across LaGuardia, JFK, and Newark, has been chronically below target. Newark was operating at 59% of its staffing goal. LaGuardia handles 900 flights a day. The hiring pipeline is broken at every stage. Only 2% of applicants complete the full process. Training takes up to 6 years. The FAA Academy in Oklahoma City is a bottleneck, with roughly 35% of trainees washing out. Congress blocked legislation to build a second academy. In one recent hiring cycle, the FAA brought on 1,512 candidates and lost 1,300 in the same window. Net gain: around 160 controllers for an entire country. Three things need to happen and everyone who can make them happen has known for years. Congress needs to fund and authorize a second FAA training academy. One facility in Oklahoma City cannot produce enough controllers for 900 million annual passengers. Members of Congress from Oklahoma have actively blocked this. That needs to end yesterday. The FAA needs to cut certification time. Six years from application to fully certified controller is absurd. The agency’s own data shows tower simulators reduce certification time by 27%. They’ve installed them at 95 facilities. That should be every facility, and the simulated hours should count toward more of the certification requirement. The FAA needs to stop plugging staffing gaps with mandatory overtime. Controllers at understaffed facilities are working six-day weeks rotating between morning, mid, and night shifts. The NTSB has flagged fatigue repeatedly. The controller last night was managing overlapping emergencies during a nighttime operation. Overtime is not a staffing plan. It’s a countdown to the next runway collision. The controller said “I messed up” to a Frontier pilot who watched the whole thing. The pilot responded “No man, you did the best you could.” One of them is right. The answer determines whether this happens again.

@KnudtsonRollin @Turbinetraveler Who’s in charge of the firetruck’s movement? It’s not the firetruck, it’s ground control. The truck does what they are told. Looking left and right yourself is a last resort.

@Turbinetraveler The fire truck was 100% at fault. No different than driving a car as you never pull out in front of someone, no matter who tells you it's OK to do so. The Port Authority of NY needs to dismiss all aboard the fire truck, and hope the hell the Port Authority doesn't get sued.

Here’s CCTV footage capturing the exact moment Air Canada Express Flight AC8646, a Bombardier CRJ-900, collided with a Port Authority fire truck at LaGuardia Airport last night.

@bscholl Agreed. Clearing the truck to cross involved the controller having about 3 seconds to make a complex speed/time judgement for both the jet on final (high speed), and the crossing truck (low speed). This would be an absolutely simple computation for a computer.

“Pumping” is a phenomenon in which a nervous pilot, during the final approach to landing, deliberately executes a rapid series of small, frequent control-column inputs. The sole (and overly simplistic) objective is to keep the aircraft’s nose continuously pointed at the touchdown zone, typically with little or no appreciation of how the aeroplane is actually managing its vertical energy, descent rate, and flight-path angle in the Z-axis.

This, boys and girls, is how airline pilots do cardio (Just kidding, it is a 747 landing in crosswind at Narita: if its "over correcting" or not, I leave that for the pros to comment)

@Tegadeyforyou Don’t do it…you actually end up putting charge back through the power station, increasing the RPM of the turbines beyond safe operating limits, causing centripetal fracture and blow out

If you're selling a home, you should have to provide a building inspection report - instead of every interested buyer paying for their own. We're changing the rules to require exactly that.

More than a third of Gen Z men think "husbands should have the final say on decisions". I understand that young men are lonely, that there is a crisis. How unfair to young men, that young women aren't flocking to sign up for a lifetime of servitude. theguardian.com/world/2026/mar…
