Well, I don’t make any statement regarding which side is doing, and which side is receiving, the pegging.

I can never quite grasp how he’s using his right hand in this photo. Why is he holding his sunglasses with the inside of his thumb and his ring finger? It seems so unnatural, like the way someone with impaired motor control would use their hand.
Ya. You see it a lot at maintenance bases for larger aircraft. A hangar large enough for the tail is often not feasible or practical, so they have a perfect tail shaped hole in the doors. You’ll see it a lot for 747/A380/C5 maintenance hangars.
Correct, he is definitely fucking lizards as well.
We just swap who flies each leg, I’ll do one, the other pilot will do the next, and so on. Seniority really doesn’t play into it at all. Usually we don’t leave the flight deck to deal with emergencies, we rely on the cabin crew for that.
I’m not sure I’d jump straight to “dumbass”. Orlando is a giant concrete jungle where basically everything looks the same. I can definitely see how a mistake could be made, however there is inevitably going to be some other factors that led to it. Maybe fatigue, maybe distractions, maybe shitty pilots, but we don’t really know yet.
I like the idea, but why the fuck is Hank cooking on a charcoal bbq? Does he want to taste the heat and not the meat?!?
Back in 2018 there was a crash in Canada involving a failed TT strap, so Transport Canada issued an AD about that particular manufacturer’s TT straps. The FAA put out a similar AD in September 2024. A failed TT strap will cause a rotor separation. I imagine that’ll be one of the first things they look at.
