Recent aviation near mass casualties
« on: February 13, 2023, 08:39:58 AM »
Seems like in the past 2-3 months we’ve had multiple extremely close calls, another one being reported today by Air current. What’s going on here ? Does the FAA need a major cultural change ? Definitely does not make feel very safe flying

This one is a little suspect.  No names quoted in the piece and hasn’t been covered by MSM… very strange given the severity of the incident.

Given that they didn’t need to report it to ATC It makes sense why it never got out. I would guess one of the crew had guilty feelings and reported it to them.

United confirmed this one. They sent the pilots for "additional training".

I stand corrected...seems unusual that this took 7+ weeks to hit MSM....

Feels like a pretty substantial incident...

He probably needs first-hand testimonies to make one.
