23:00 min mark -
Ben Shapiro briefly describes positives to privatizing ATC and TSA -
remove power from politicians to shut down airports.

He’s not the first to suggest this. Some other countries privatize.

“The Thing Nobody Is Saying About Airport Safety” / 48min total

“As Americans wait for hours in line thanks to a defunded TSA
and Americans are murdered by illegal immigrants,

Democrats continue to shut down funding for the Department of Homeland Security;
American communists travel to Cuba for fun and games;
and we bring you the latest on the war in Iran.”
Ep. 2394

U.S. airports impaired by politics twice in less than 6 months!!

B-52 Test flight. 8 dead. Not all military. Some gov contractors.
The debris field looks like a small stain on the desert. Nothing left.

Why Did the B-52 Crash? Former Top Gun Pilot Weighs In / 7min

I have a relative that was AF. He said those planes are 70 years old. When he was in it he said some of them use train rails to hold them together. I’m just amazed they aren’t all grounded now.

I have a relative who was, and still is AF. The assertion that “train rails” held B-52s together is nonsense.

AF = "a fraud"?

The 7 minute video addresses the aging aircraft, and more.

i’m astonished the (video) pilot expects quite a lot of information forthcoming about “what happened”.
Not necessarily to be shared with the public.

Photos show almost nothing but ashes remaining, eerily contained. Easily lost in the vast desert.
It reminds of 9-11-2001, so much “vaporized”.

i wonder if there was a black box? if so, recoverable? if so, will the military make it public? (doubtful)

8 souls on board.

SEPTEMBER 6 2026 / MIAMI

Pilots survived.
i’ve read, 5 fatalities on the ground.

From Captain Steeve’s reaction, i wonder if substance abuse was a factor? (i haven’t noticed a mention of it.) yet.

CBS / Witness says pilot in Amazon plane crash was shaking afterward: "My career is over"
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/amazon-pla ... i-witness/

“The pilots were identified Tuesday as Joseph Carroll, 55, and Jaime Felipe Silva Molina, 37.

It wasn't immediately clear which pilot Altamar spoke with. Both pilots were treated for injuries and have been released,
National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy said.

CBS News has determined the names of the pilots using a Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office news release, LinkedIn profiles, and the Federal Aviation Administration's pilot database. LinkedIn profiles list Carroll as a captain with 21 Air, the carrier that operated the flight, and Silva as a 21 Air first officer.”

From C.Steeeve’s reaction, it sounds like i was landing the thing. terrrrible.
