Just a minor nitpick… not Orient Beach; that’s over on the French side of the island and the beach goers there have decidedly less clothing.A person doing this, for the take off jet wash, was blasted onto the adjacent rocks and died. This is on orient beach in St. Maarten. Since then, the authorities have clamped down on this nonsense.
I stand corrected. I will now go Google the photos; ya know, to become educated 😉Just a minor nitpick… not Orient Beach; that’s over on the French side of the island and the beach goers there have decidedly less clothing.
I’m sure there are some photos but those are few (actually from Orient Beach) because they are very strict about no camera/phone picture taking. And honestly, only 5-10% are picture worthy anyway.I stand corrected. I will now go Google the photos; ya know, to become educated 😉
Not what I wanted to see getting ready to board a flight in Providence RI

That's computer animated off Microsoft Flight Simulator.
That explains why you don’t hear an air traffic controller screaming for both of them to abort. Too bad for Noleclone2. He’s flying while thinking about this video.
Still boarding. I can sleep now.That explains why you don’t hear an air traffic controller screaming for both of them to abort. Too bad for Noleclone2. He’s flying while thinking about this video.
Skynet is real. 5 Minutes after I clicked this thread. This showed up in my feed.
I landed like this in sweltering hot weather in Minneapolis. It was like 102 and the weather pattern was creating a ton of thermals and cross winds. I looked out the window to see we were coming in diagonal, at about 30-45 degrees off center. We hit hard when the pilot dipped the wing at the last minute. People made a comment that it was a terrible landing. We had a ride along pilot who said it was textbook perfect. He said a crosswind/thermal could grab the right wing and basically flip the plan so you have to lower the wing and bring us in hot. The turbulence on the way down was so bad you could look down the body of the plane from way in the back, to see the whole fuselage flexing and wobbling.
