The way I read the OP was a joke about being a ticking blood bomb when being an organ donor.

First you missed the point of that post.

Second, people with brain function can’t control their blood pressure. If they could we wouldn’t need BP meds. Unless your name is Dwight or Dennis.

Oh wow, I obviously didn’t read the article. Shame on me. Had no idea they had that few on staff.

Interesting to hear about Brook’s Law. Thanks!

From what I’ve read about their Daily Active Users they’re going to be overstaffed soon. No hate but they exploded and when things settle they might not need as much staff. Thoughts?

Sad, he probably would’ve broken 2 hours.

I’m at a point where I wish our support forum was at least on Discord, the majority of my community is pretty old but it spans down into a handful of Gen Z with more Millennials and Z coming in as the Boomers get out. Even so the main forum is a Facebook page. Splinter groups using WhatsApp, Signal and iMessage. It’s not like the older gen is technically inept, for the most part, it’s just they’re entrenched and moving them would take a massive, easy to use software that is far superior to FB’s viability. Personally using Discord and it’s seamless jump from PC-Laptop-Phone is nice, admittedly I’m in the same mindset of those in my groups on FB as I haven’t tried anything else.

Lots of options, fuel starvation, contaminated fuel, exceeding the altitude limits of the aircraft or engines and improper restart procedures such as Pinnacle 3701 in 2004. Many many more options, the NTSB has very skilled accident investigators and almost certainly will find the cause, and then blame the pilots.

Yes, depending on the manufacturer they could have multiple pumps per engine, separate tanks, crossfeed from the opposite tank etc.

Well they lost both engines. Hopefully that’s what they focus on in the investigation.

Nobody, “It’s just a prank bro!”.
