Glad he got Trump elected before kicking the bucket.
0·2 days agoYou are a fucktard. I know how to look up tail numbers and info just as easy as the next guy. This plane was built in 2000 according to the info available.
The fact that this plane was built in 2000. The fact that lemmy is representative of Reddit user demographics and their average age is 18-29 making it a reasonable assumption that you are under 25.
That bird is probably older than you are
Just keep your feet on the ground
I rather doubt this happened solely because the airline is saving money somewhere. This is an old bird, I bet the engine has 30000 cycles on it. Probably something let loose in the compressor during take off. Nobody was hurt, everyone did exactly as the book says to do. The system worked. Keep investing in sound regulation and keep the airlines accountable for their maintenance and we all get home safely.
Better article about this incident
Fun fact, the FAA maintains a public data base about all the reported major issues with an airframe. This plane is reported as tail number N836MH and you can look up all of the service difficulty reports Here.
Engines have nothing to do with the airframe.
Not at all. The airline is responsible for maintenance. Engines may be maintained by the OEM, but these ancient engines, that may not be the case.
Arch is not responsible for idiots.
It’s a known risk.
Honestly that could be an interesting reboot.

A bit more info.
And for Part III, Universal built the so-called “Oxnard car,” fitted with train wheels for use in the rail scenes, along with two DeLoreans on sand rail chassis and with Volkswagen engines and transaxles for the off-road driving scenes.
Have you seen Hollywood recently? What isn’t a remake or revamp. Fuck they managed to get bill murray back into ghost busters. Hollywood is brain dead.
I remember watching the director commentary on the first movie and they made a joke about the 88 mph thing because the car could barely do it. If I recall the later car in the films was a Volvo underneath.
It’s a fair question. The whole 88 mph thing from back to the future was a joke because no one thought a delorian could go that fast.
It’s the delorian of our time. Go ahead and use it for the remake of back to the future.
To all the down votes… it is a joke. But I knew it would ruffle some feathers.
