@CHI2COL @Bratt_world @eclairification Standard practice when something like this happens is the airfield is closed and planes will divert to their alternate. So no, they won’t be circling forever eh.

@Bratt_world @eclairification Lol. All the planes looking to land should just circle forever eh?

“According to aviation insider JonNYC, he then continued working alone for over an hour after the crash, guiding remaining planes back to their gates because there was no one to relieve him until morning.”

Minutes after the Air Canada CRJ-900 collided with a fire truck on Runway 4 at LaGuardia Airport last night, killing both pilots, the air traffic controller's voice was captured on LiveATC audio. "That wasn't good to watch," a voice is heard saying on the frequency. The controller replies: "Yeah, I know. I was here. I tried to reach out. We were dealing with an emergency earlier. I messed up." The other voice responds: "Nah man, you did the best you could," according to Newsweek and CBC News. The controller had been working alone, handling both ground and tower operations. A United Airlines flight had aborted takeoff due to a warning light and a cabin odor that sickened the flight attendants. The controller cleared a fire truck to cross Runway 4 to reach the United plane. Seconds later, he realized Air Canada Flight 8646 was still rolling down the same runway after landing, according to CNN. "Stop, stop, stop, Truck 1, stop!" he shouted. It was too late. After the collision, the controller ordered an approaching Delta flight to go around, closed the runway, and called in additional emergency vehicles. According to aviation insider JonNYC, he then continued working alone for over an hour after the crash, guiding remaining planes back to their gates because there was no one to relieve him until morning.

@eclairification Excuse fucking me?!?!? He stayed in position and continued to work aircraft? The FAA system is broke beyond repair by the sounds of it if someone can’t get relieved after a crash.
English
@NotAvgLiberal As much as blaming Trump for things is usually correct. This has been an issue for a long long time. Beyond time for the FAA to get serious about ATC staffing
English
Remind me again….
How many Air Traffic Controllers were fired or let go due to DOGE cuts?
Elon Musk and Donald Trump own the deaths of these 2 pilots.
CALL TO ACTIVISM@CalltoActivism
🚨BREAKING: There has been a plane crash at LaGuardia Airport in New York, after an aircraft collided with a Port Authority vehicle that was responding to a separate incident. Both the pilot and co-pilot have been confirmed dead. That’s more dead under Trump in aviation accidents than Biden and Trump’s first term combined. Sean Duffy should resign.

Jakub Dobes on the chirping during the NYI vs Habs game:
“I heard everything that was going on between the benches. There was something that one player (from NYI) said that shouldn’t be said. I just told the referees: ‘Please be careful, this stuff doesn’t belong in the game.”

@Whitecaps1 @HabsOnReddit Maturing is realizing it’s ok to call out shitty people. I see you’re still 12.

@HabsOnReddit Ohhh how old is he? He tattletale'd to the Referee about something somebody said ?? Ha what a joke dude

This is laughable. The winningest franchise in all of Canadian sports by a long shot. Arguably the best team to ever play in the 70’s. And one of the most iconic sports franchises of all time globally.

@cynthiapace1 In this case it seems from available information that the pilot did nothing but land, and is not at fault. But let’s not pretend they never make mistakes or move on the ground without the proper clearance.
English
An air traffic control mistake? Or truck driver’s mistake?
Whose mistake was this…
Pilots do NOT move an inch on the runway “unless given explicit clearance to move”
Another accident in a USA airport possibly because of funding cuts? Another reason not to travel to USA😞

Slafkovsky is on pace to break 70 points which is a big jump in production for him, but the average forward would be on pace for 80 pts w/ his deployment (and the avg 21 year old would be on pace for 72).
MTL is stacked offensively, but Slaf is more passenger than play driver.
yolo_pinyato_is_dead@yolo_pinyato
every "slafkovsky is good now" post is just a screen shot of his points because people don't know how to calibrate someone being the 6th best offensive player on a top 5 offense in the league lol

Some people in this fanbase are so braindead.

@andystrickland Imagine being the guy defending this! That’s the most dangerous play in hockey. Could have easily broke his neck. Then what would have happened? 3 games for consistency? Give me a break.
English
Three games is pretty consistent for a boarding suspension for a player with unrelated history.

Florida’s A.J. Greer has been suspended for three games for boarding Calgary’s Connor Zary. nhl.com/video/topic/pl…

Alright I’m officially on the “there’s a serious problem with @NHLPlayerSafety” bandwagon. 3 games is not nearly enough for almost killing someone. Would it have been different if he broke his neck? Is that what it will take?

@ldl716 The cope from Leafs fans is at an all time high. They’re down bad folks, just let them say what they need to to make them feel ok.

Shades of Matthews here from Suzuki. Not what you wanna be emulating.

Mat Barzal wanted to go with Nick Suzuki and he would NOT take no for an answer 😳🫣

@EditorinSabre I’ll accept an argument for choosing Dahlin over Hutson. But 5th best? Let’s be for real please.
English
Lane Hutson would be Buffalo’s 5th best defenseman by the way…
Wayne Hutson@igriptheklar
Does your team have a player that I would trade Lane Hutson for? Based heavily on age, contract, and the #GoHabsGo current cup window. A 22 year old franchise level dman with an 8.85Mx8 contract that doesn't start until NEXT year is tough to beat imo.

Do these guys not see the difference of a clean hit on a 6th D man to a disgustingly dirty knee of your superstar captain? Also, there was more response from the Sens in this play than there was the Leafs.

"Will [Brady Tkachuk] go on his podcast and talk about his team not responding after Oliver Ekman-Larsson buried Dennis Gilbert into the boards and injured him?" @JDBunkis and @SamAMcKee react to the first Battle of Ontario since Tkachuk's comments on Matthews' injury.

Imagine the headlines if this was Auston Matthews. But Nick Suzuki will get a free pass.

@MikeBartner Would love for some Habs fans to read this and realize that making moves just because you’re in the playoffs isn’t always the right call.
English
All of our worst fears manifesting in real time. I can’t believe it.
This is why I wanted the ethical tank or ethical rebuild that FOCUSED on the future.
Palat, Soucy and Schenn deals were as unethical as it gets and we are being punished.

@FrankieBorrelli Frankie man, you’re a hockey guy. Know that the Boos are a sign of respect. Also, WHAT AN END TO THAT GAME!

@Habcat And what move would you have made? Because it sure seems they were going to drastically over pay to get something done.
