My understanding is that certain migrant Cretans are being shipped back to Venezuela and Venezuela is refusing. I propose every flight be a Boeing Max no bolts and all. May they all be a one way ticket.
These memes are not helping me. I never fly anywhere -anymore. Each flight is just another failed suicide attempt. Now add on D.E.I. and Wakanda promotions and I hate driving to the airport to pick up someone else. I'll take my chances in the RV with the dogs in the rack. Combustion engines are good to me and mine.
A simpler solution, if the Venezuelan .gov does not take back their vermin, Pinochet airways.
Drops at the 12 mile ocean limit. As we are not quite so militaristic, give them a surplus life vest, bottle of water and make the drops from 20 ft altitude. Those that make it to shore can deal with what happens in their home country.
And before anyone whines about "cruel and unusual", 20' drop training was standard in the U.S.N. when I was there 50+ ago, not sure what it is now, probably a walk into a Jacuzzi.
A smart airline would corner the market by using this dei BS against its competitors. "We hire based on competence and merit so take your chances with us, that is, if you survive the TSA cavity search performed by folks almost as stupid as our competitors pilots and maintenance crews".
Not counting the news outlets or websites along the full range of accuracy and veracity, I follow multiple actual individuals' handwritten blogs. (Bot news aggregators don't thrill me.) Looking them over, many are current serving or former military and a couple are some variation of high-speed low-drag elite forces ninjas. Or just funny as all. Because life without humor is just despair. So in other words, the same folks I trusted in the military not to wet the bed, sh*t themselves, or otherwise run around like headless Nancys, are the same folks I trust on the interwebz, for demonstrating pretty much the same trustworthiness and circumspectly responsible behavior. Color me shocked.
Comments are fully moderated, due to idiots and trolls. Grown up discussion here will appear just as soon as I have the time to push it through. ANONYMOUS UNSIGNED COMMENTS WILL BE AUTO-DELETED WITHOUT MERCY, and the url added to the spam filter, or mercilessly mocked at the bloghost's sole discretion. If you're too chickensh*t to come up with an alias for online purposes, you're not tall enough for this blog. Pick a name, and stick with it, and you're good. Get cute, and you're wasting your time and my electrons, and your masterpiece will never see the light of day. No warning shots will be fired. If you can't maintain decorum and polite behavior, I won't toy with you, I'll squash you. If one of your comments disappears, YOU f**ked up. If all of them do, it's time for you to go. Disagree with the points made, on the merits, and you're good. Go after me personally, or other commenters, and your comment will never see daylight here. My tolerance for skirting the line is at absolute zero, and will remain there. Don't f**k up.

LOL,
That had better be at least 500 mph Duck Tape!

I have not flown commercial for many, many, years. I refuse to deal with the tsa. If I need to go anywhere, no matter where in our country, I drive!
@idahobob,
While I applaud the sentiment, I would caution that approach on trips to Maui.
But look at the money they saved on fasteners last quarter!
