Not anymore. This was an old tri-jet. Once engines became reliable enough to increase ETOPS ratings (the time a plane can fly with an engine out) from 60 to now 240 minutes, and you could fly a 2-engine jet across the ocean on the same route as a four- or three-engine jet, it didn’t make sense to keep buying those with higher engine counts and the accompanying fuel usage required.

In turn, those older planes like the 747, DC-10, and MD-11, are generally turned into cargo aircraft for the remainder of their service life. They still have all the same airworthiness requirements needed to fly in US and other countries’ airspace.

This jet should have been able to take off with two of its three engines just fine, but I heard a rumor that the middle engine suffered a compressor stall and wasn’t running at full power. From the video it looks like the nose is up but the plane is descending due to lack of power. Even if the engine stall isn’t true, if the engine comes off the wing, as what seems to be the case here, it can critically damage the wing itself and stall it. See American Airlines 191 disaster in Chicago, for example.

We passed lunches for everyone in Minnesota a few years ago and even though our family has been fortunate enough to be able to afford lunches for our kids before, it is wonderful to know that every kid is provided breakfast and lunch now for free. Done. No more of that “not enough money in your account, guess you get a bologna sandwich, not the meal everyone else gets” bullshit.

It’s got some charm, but that’s a pretty weak attempt at the saucer section.

Then realize that many of them voted for this because they’d rather starve themselves than help those that don’t look or act like they do.

All peoples should be fed and housed. Full stop; no conditions. Rich, poor, parent, single, married, immigrant, citizen, young, old, political affiliation, whatever. Food insecurity is a horrible problem and shouldn’t be a worry for anybody these days, especially for the kids.

Yes. My kids love it. It’s quite good.

At least they’re not hiding the white supremacy angle anymore, though that’s little consolation to the people that have the greatest need for this pathway.

I watched the documentary movie “John Candy: I Like Me” and very much enjoyed it.

Taco Bell.

Unskippable intro levels that teach the control mechanics.

We have failed to uphold Brannigan’s Law. However I did make it with a hot alien babe. And in the end, is that not what man has dreamt of since first he looked up at the stars? [pause] Kif, I’m asking you a question.

Prison’s not so bad. You can make Sangria in the toilet. Of course, it’s shank or be shanked.

Script is done, and filming will be in Los Angeles. Apparently they’re going to start filming soon.

Trump sanctions Russia, weakly

That’s better.

Is this like a kink level up in AoE2 or something?

I’d love to play it. I’ve heard amazing things. But I’m never signing up for an EA account, and I’m certainly never linking said account with my Steam account.

Unfortunate, because I really would like to check the series out.

Hopefully EA will remove their BS requirement.

It is infinitely quotable. Virtually every scene has some insane one-liner or conversation and it’s awesome. My buddy and I used to watch this movie all the time and I know much of it by heart because of it.

Snatch tried to recreate the magic, and it’s a great movie, but LS&2SB is the better overall, IMO.
