Surprisingly, no. They counted deaths from exposure, drowning, etc as fatalities in this study: https://www.aviationsafetymagazine.com/features/the-myths-of-ditching/

This is just a review of NTSB data and some ditchings may have gone unreported. The main point is that ditching, even in the open ocean is very survivable.

Sorry for the wait. I had family visiting and completely forgot about my comment. I believe I recall an FAA study with similar findings, but I can’t find it atm.

Remember kids, according to an FAA review of accidents, no type of water ditching has lower than an eighty percent survivability rating. So putting it in the drink is always an option.

Election results always seem to mean exactly what the person writing about them has been telling everyone for years. Funny that.

Least egotistical pilot.

Several of the trade groups that sued New York “vociferously lobbied the FCC to classify broadband Internet as a Title I service in order to prevent the FCC from having the authority to regulate them,” today’s 2nd Circuit ruling said. “At that time, Supreme Court precedent was already clear that when a federal agency lacks the power to regulate, it also lacks the power to preempt. The Plaintiffs now ask us to save them from the foreseeable legal consequences of their own strategic decisions. We cannot.”

This has to be one of the better, legal “go fuck yourselves” I’ve ever seen.

Well, this is awkward…

I think you’ve got the wrong type of Goths for that last one.

The Free Beacon is a rag. All of the charges they are talking about are their own. The article focuses on only one of the charges as it’s the only one not already specifically addressed by a plagiarism investigation sparked by their own charges. That one instance seems to center around two paragraphs and two footnotes. Only one of the paragraphs is more than one sentence long and all of them are descriptions of the contents of sections of the voting rights act. It would be pretty tough to reword that content in too many ways. Oh, and the article straight up admits that the author she supposedly plagiarized looked over the sections and told them that they come nowhere near academic plagiarism. There, now no one else needs to read that substance-less dreck.

Oh, and weren’t The Free Beacon the ones who funded Fusion GPS opo until the Steele dossier came out and they decided to trash fusion without ever telling anyone they were the ones funding them?

I don’t know that it’s all that obscure, but with Halloween coming up you should see Tucker and Dale vs Evil if you haven’t already. It’s a role reversal of the teens in the woods trope. Two redneck buddies (Tyler Labine and Alan Tudyk) are renovating a hunting cabin when they save a young woman who knocks herself unconscious in the lake. Her friends think the rednecks are creepy killers and proceed to attack the two in an attempt to save their friend. The teens end up accidentally killings themselves one by one all over the rednecks’ property scaring the hell out of everyone involved, and that’s just the beginning.

So the company selling bogus aircraft parts is called AOG (Aircraft on Ground)?
