Reminds me of the May 25, 1979 crash of AA Flight 191, at Chicago’s O’Hare Int Airport. Damn near identical scenario where the number one engine separated from the wing. MX crews were using a forklift to mate the engine to the pylon. They overstressed and cracked to engine mount bolts.

I witnessed some geniuses doing the same thing on a B-707 cargo conversion, in 1986, at Batch Air in Miami. These Cuban idiots had the engine pylon resting on some wood planks that were laid atop a 10’ step ladder, while the engine was being overhauled!

UPS cargo maintenance employee, Joe Schmo: “Hey, any of you guys seen my 1” Snap-Off box wrench?”

NTSB Investigator: “We found this 1” Snap-Off box wrench on the runway, not far from where the number 1 inlet cowling impacted.”

Good - it will make a good photo op to put him in irons and haul his obtructionist ass away to the chain gang.

DU is missing their village idiot.

Yeah, I knew the Orion was not the correct bird, but could not recall the replacement - and was to lazy to look it up. The B-52 is an amazing airframe, and Boeing continues to improve and upgrade its capabilities. I think the B-52 is going to be around long after I’m gone.

This is yet another example of the “Ape of the Church” of which the late Bishop Fulton J. Sheen spoke. The post-concilliar modernist bullsh*t clownshow is increasingly emptying the pews. Serious Catholics are leaving the Novus Ordo garbage scowl and flocking to Traditional Catholic Churches, such as those under the SSPX, FSSP, etc. The reprobates in Rome cannot stop the hemorrhaging. Pope Leo XIV is proving himself Francis 2.0 with a better temperment.

When I first heard this story, my reaction was “WTF, Over!? - Trump gave THIS a pass?” and “WTH was RFKJ thinking?”

He’s practicing for his next action movie - “George of the Jungle” ... Watch out for that - treeeeee!

Just heard that at least one B-52 is shadowing the Venezuela coast. If true, there is likely other aircraft accompanying, such as a P3 Orion - and a few fighters.

That’s OK, you maggot-infested ragheads ... The next episode of FAFO will involve deployment of the same ordinance used on the Iranian nuclear facilities.

Not “European protesters.” They’re Islamic jihadists.

Here is a question - because I must be missing something in all this “shut down”drama ...

Where has President Trump “reduced the size of government” during these past 4 days - as he stated he would do?

Have any here heard of the promised mass layoffs actually being carried out, as per the OMB Director’s assessment?

Is anyone on this thread aware of a federal department being closed or eliminated?

All I hear is talk.
All I see is memes
I don’t see action.

The promised layoffs appear to be all “sombrero” and no ganado!

As Charlie would say - “Prove me wrong.”

Well bless yer heart.

I doubt “Pope Leo XIV” is legitimate. He’s a Modernist heretic of the “post concilliar” APE of the Church. ... Just as were the five usurpers who came before him - excepting Pope John Paul I, whom the infiltrators had murdered because he was about to spill the beans on prelates who were Masons, and expose the corruption at the Vatican Bank. Provost also appears to be a pagan, as was Bergoglio before him. IMO, these men are subversive soldiers - useful idiots for the Masonic Lodges.

Government SUCK-down in 3-2-1 ...

Another MASSHOLE demonnstrates why we call Massachusetts “The RETARD STATE.”

I’m a traditional Catholic (SSPX) - BUT be advised ... While most “Trads” are not conspiracy loons, there is a break-away cult of “rad trads” who, IMO, are certifiably batsh*t bonkers.

These kooks believe, repeat and usually embellish every conspiracy theory ever made.

Of course, these people believe the “Joooos” control the world, and are out to take over everything.

Below, I list just a few examples of the hysterical nonsense these whackos believe to be true:

1.) The attacks of September 11th 2001 were an “inside job,” perpetrated by the U.S. and Israeli governments:
*** WTC-1, WTC-2, and WTC-7 were brought down by planted demolition explosives and “beam-cutting thermite shaped charges;”
***the airliners that hit WTC-1 and 2 were either remote controlled – and had no passengers aboard (or else the passengers who boarded the planes were secretly removed at another landing site, and are all still living under new identities);
***the Pentagon was hit with a guided missile, not a passenger airliner;
***the Shanksville, PA crash of Flight 93 was faked.

2.) “The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” is a real document, created by Zionists, which lays out their plans to subvert the Church and take over the world.

3.) Ann Frank’s Diary is a forgery.

4.) “The Holocaust” never happened, or else the number of deaths was purposely inflated by the Jews.

4.) The “False Flag” event – “Operation Northwoods” - was approved by JFK and his SoD, Robert McNamara - and actually carried out.

She’s a certifyable loon. Ignore her.

Jester’s Court Juggler would be a more accurate title.

Since when do NON-CITIZENS residing here as temporary VISITORS have the right to intimidate AMERICAN CITIZENS? I don’t give a rat’s ass that Reagan appointed this shiff-4-brains. He’s a leftist loon. He can go shove a hot poker up his bunghole and spin on it.
