#2 investigating why Delta Air Lines passengers in Las Vegas remained on board

Perhaps they were told to, under threat of arrest?

#3 The real mystery is why they boarded a Delta flight in the first place.

#4 Well Mr Secretary you can actually change that tomorrow by making the FAA measure of 'on time' when the aircraft lifts off the air field rather than when it pushes off from the terminal as you now have it. Of course you won't because the industry will push back and bitch about how few aircraft are actually on time. Maybe its long beyond time when you finally admit that you can only get so many physically in the air at one time regardless of what the industry wants it to look like.

#6 @#3 - Exactly, B.

And this from the same industry that want to go to just one pilot in the cockpit and from the same gang that won't rehire pilots who quit or were terminated for refusing the Fauci Flu clot shot.

But, is there a bigger loser dorko putz in the "Biden" Administration than Buttigieg? I realize competition is tough, but that worthless dork is up there.

#7 The same thing happened at Munich airport this morning. Passengers of Tailwind Airlines (Turkish) were forced to remain on board for three hours in extreme heat and the pilot threatened those who demanded to leave.

The airline didn't even hand out water for free, passengers had to pay for it. Only when people called 110 (the German 911), police and fire brigades evacuated the passengers. Several people needed hospital care.

I would nominate Mayorkas but they're probably in a dead heat for that honor.

#9 Yeah, and then there's Merrick Garland. Let's face it. It's the whole damned lot of them.

#13 I think there was a chemical plant explosion a week or so ago in Louisiana or somewhere in the deep South. Another strange occurrence.
