onsidered to potentially tentatively hypothetically be conditionally hired to fly for an airline so that you can screw a naked female Japanese flight attendant in an empty Boeing 787

Last month I was swept up in ForeFlight's massive layoffs. I wrote about my experiences with AI in software development, what I think this means for the future, and why I have concerns.

Under the initiative, either Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) or Seletar Airport (XSP) will be used as a testbed to co-develop what CAAS describes as a “comprehensive readiness framework” for integrating open-fan engines and next-generation aircraft into existing airport operations. The work will cover aircraft and engine design considerations, airport infrastructure modifications, changes to operational procedures, safety standards and regulatory processes.

The aircraft will soon be leaving the skies.

I enjoy Paul's maritime videos and am pleased to see he's made 2 air crash salvage videos on how the wreckages were located and found (the other being Air India Flight 192).
He uses clips from the Mayday/Air Crash Investigations show, which I wish he gave attribution for. Regardless, his focus is on the sea search and recovery. His thorough research always has me learning something I didn't know before (like how only 8 bodies were recovered intact.)

"South African Airways Flight 295 vanishes into the Indian Ocean with 159 people on board! The only way to learn WHY is to find a shattered 747 lying deeper than the Titanic. ...This video follows Operation Resolve, the multinational deep‑ocean search that towed Pinger locators through uncharted seafloor, switched to high‑resolution side‑scan sonar when the black box beacons went silent, and finally mapped two debris fields 4,400 meters down."
