Someone from China FOIA requested the NTSB for any documents related to their participation in the investigation into the 2022 crash of China Eastern Airlines flight 5735, widely speculated to be a case of pilot suicide. The documents are mostly boilerplate but we did get an FDR data plot:

This newsletter is almost entirely drawn from the published lawsuits. It's a newsletter to tell you what has happened, timeline-wise, and, hopefully, make some folks realize how bizarre it is to have 2 NTSB board members fired. It is, for me, a start. /1 colleenmondor.substack.com/p/46-the-nts...

Takeaways from the NTSB's preliminary report on the Jazz 8646 crash at LaGuardia: data.ntsb.gov/carol-repgen... - No testimony yet from the truck driver - Truck 1 turret operator said he heard "stop stop stop" twice, first time wasn't sure it was for them, second time they were already on RWY (1/?)

New awareness campaign

Reflecting on Artemis II, I looked up Apollo 17. What I didn't realize is that people were on the moon from December 11 to 14, 1972. My mom was born the next day. She's in the rare group of people that have waited the maximum amount of days for humans to land on the moon again.

“Folks, they’re having a little trouble getting the jet bridge into position, but we hope to have you off the aircraft shortly. Thank you for your patience.”

Best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only @garybrannan.bsky.social

jk rowling spends money she makes from harry potter on stripping rights away from me personally. this is not a hypothetical scenario. that's where it goes if you buy wizard crap.

I have grave concerns for the plane's pilots, anybody in those front seats as well as the crew of the truck. Jetphotos pic of Air Canada CRJ-900LR C-GNJZ #C06800

Selfie thread about an airplane crash

I remind you all that last May the NTSB Vice Chair, Alvin Brown, was also fired by the administration with no explanation. No one has been talking about what happened to Brown. Now, Inman is fired. apnews.com/article/nati...

#TSBAir released its investigation report (A24W0008) into the fatal January 23, 2024 controlled flight into terrain that occurred at Fort Smith Airport, Northwest Territories. Find out what happened: https://ow.ly/N3Ip50YpIvo #AviationSafety #Media

Why do Hawker business jets keep crashing during post-maintenance stall tests? What ought to be done about it? Read my new deep dive here: admiralcloudberg.medium.com/the-most-dan...

The NTSB has released its 419 page final report on the DCA mid-air: www.ntsb.gov/investigatio... I'm expecting to finish my Hawker stall test article tomorrow, and I'll start diving into this crash immediately after.

Well this is sad. She was a Canadian icon. I watched her in Home Alone, but I also watched her in both live-action adaptations of A Series of Unfortunate Events. My condolences to her family and friends :(

At its meeting minutes ago, the National Transportation Safety Board adopted the following probable cause and contributing factors to the January 2025 DCA mid-air collision. See replies for a few notes
