@BuzzPatterson Normal enough ROD especially if gusty. Just too low 🤷♂️

Here’s the data on the United 767 that hit the truck and light pole on short final.
The speed looks about right. Maybe a bit slow. The descent rate at that height, however, is insane.
That’s the definition of “unstable approach.”
English
Looks like there were gusty winds, but I don’t know how to explain this one.
If you suddenly lose the gust at approach speed, you lose a lot of lift…but we carry extra speed to account for that.
The aim point is usually 1,000’ down the runway, with the flare leaving you touching down around 1,500-1,800’ down the runway (up to 3,000’ is acceptable). If landing on runway 29 at EWR, however, they’d use “Short Field” techniques. The aim point is in the first few hundred feet, and the target for touching down is around 1,000’, but no later than 1,500’ (or you go around).
Sorry, I don’t honestly know how this happens. Usually there is a lot of space between the runway threshold & anything else (called an overrun, clearway, etc.) but it doesn’t appear to be the case here.

Went to a spa. Walking past the mirror, I looked at my DD and couldn’t get the word “cannons” out of my mind.
Thanks to $JPM, I will never be able to look at my breasts the same way again 😭

Is it time for Irish airlines to let pets fly with their owners?

This viral airplane video shows a common travel headache that blew up online. A teenage kid kept kicking the seat in front of him over and over, even after the adult passenger politely asked him to stop multiple times. The frustrated man finally had enough and slammed his seat back hard in one quick move. Because the teen had his knees raised up toward his chest, the sudden recline drove the seat into his legs, forcing his knee to snap up and smash into his own face. Reports say it broke his teeth and caused bleeding.

@JohnLeFevre It’s definitely BS. No woman says “canons” or “fish head” 🤣

I would wager any amount of money that this JP Morgan woman is 1000% innocent and now she's having her life ruined by some failed banker turned scammer.
1. JPM conducted a full internal investigation. That means they would have forensically analyzed all devices - business and personal - for direct evidence and indirect behavioral patterns. She cooperated. He didn't.
2. Her reputation is rock solid. JPM LevFin employees are calling her kind and professional, and even prudish (i.e. the opposite of deviant). Conversely, they are calling this John Doe coward a creep and a loser.
Now she's been meme'd into oblivion by the Daily Mail and the social media masses.
How can she get another job?
How can she get a promotion?
How can she find a life partner?
The memes are funny, but they are destroying this poor woman's life.
So try to keep that in mind and have some grace.

This story is getting a ton of traction, probably because the accused is a female banker. This stuff doesn't surprise me at all. After all, JP Morgan banked Epstein for years after his first incarceration. But I experienced countless examples of deviance at all ranges of the spectrum. Just a couple of examples that come to mind: 1) High yield deal for Chinese billionaire property developer. Doing a global roadshow. The CEO drunkenly assaults a female analyst in a hotel room. Instead of bailing on the deal (and losing the IPO fees), the bank sends her home and continues with the roadshow. 2) My first boss, a Managing Director, never bothered to interview prospective analysts. Waste of his time. One day, he overheard us talking about interviews and that one female Ivy League applicant listed "Glamour Magazine Woman Of The Year" on her résumé. He insisted on the doing the interview (~45 minutes). He came back 10 minutes later and said, "I guess looks were not among Glamour's criteria" and threw the résumé in the trash. He's still a senior MD in London. 3) The hedge fund sales desk only hired attractive female analysts. They referred to them as "tethered goats" and would bring them to all their client drinks. 4) Our head of trading got annoyed at the meekness of an intern and wanted to toughen him up. Made him take a survey of every guy on the trading floor and rank every female on the credit sales team in order of fuckability. And then had him chart it up and present it to us in PowerPoint. 5) Many emerging markets closing dinners were male bankers only because clients typically want to go to dirty karaoke. I could probably think of a dozen more, but you get the idea....
