Southwest Goes Off Road'n In Chicago

[Whataburger]

AGAIN? Were they hurrying to make the ontime for the schedule? Did they only have 20 minutes until they had to push for CLE, and they were hungry? Jay Leno and others will have another field day on this.

BTW, happy nobody got hurt. Do you think that skid hurt the rivets in the ceiling? SLOW DOWN.......


Bye Bye---General Lee

Dang. Flight info = You've seen the General's true colors.

Of those six -300's with stressed skins how many of them made high G turn offs and how often?

Is there a trend here or is it a Boeing problem? Blah blah blah, Boeing, Boeing, Boeing.

Glad everyone is OK and SWA is learning it lessons without hurting people.

Are you a moron, or are you possessed by a retarded ghost?

Shoot me, I'm actually responding to the king of trolls here-
1st MDW is MDW.
2nd "slowing down" is only safer when it's safer. Had a guy who was so methodical and choppy in his checklists that it made it worse and missed a lot. There was no rhythm, but he always played the safety card about why he did it. To me- he simply wasn't smart or talented enough to keep up. That's what wasn't safe, not his speed.

3rd and most ironic, is that you say that burying your head in the sand about the pace many of your regional carriers are scheduled to. As quick as many swa pilots still do go- it's not nearly as fast as what was normal in the regional world just to stay on schedule-
And before you call that regi-pilot weak for not slowing down - you go back to that schedule, and the many scheduled reduced layovers they have and tell those guys and girls not to hustle so they can get some rest. And then realize that you as a DALPA pilot created the situation where they have no leverage to fix their scheduling and pay issues.

Ie: very "classy" and presumptive -Gen - you're throwing big jagged stones in the very fragile aviation glass house. And delta certainly isnt immune nor has a history to back that up. The minute any of us think we can't depart a runway, that starts the clock on the day it'll happen

Pretty class-less. But I wouldn't expect anything else from the Gen.

You all can go on and on but it all boils down to LUV's culture.

SWA has stressed its airframes for years doing more with less.

And now the consequences of those actions have resulted in two airframes popping their tops with half a dozen more cracked way before Boeing said they should after having been flown aggressively.

And now SWA in a timely fashion is showing the NTSB why these accidents are happening to SWA.

SWA is the problem. It is not the NTSB. It is not MDW. It is not Boeing. It is SWA doing what SWA does as a norm.

Watch the profanity please, ladies and gentlemen.

Glad everyone's OK.

Nobody has at all?

Go back to playing HALO.........

Another classless post by the village idiot!

Landing on the taxiway and overflying MSP come to mind?

This is reality and what it boils down to. It's unfortunate but true.
