1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever been in a cockpit before it?

2
00:00:02.680 --> 00:00:05.519
<v Speaker 2>Hey, thirty two on a Thursday means it's time for

3
00:00:05.639 --> 00:00:09.599
<v Speaker 2>iHeart Media aviation expert Jay rat Left, Jay Ratliff, Welcome back,

4
00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:11.080
<v Speaker 2>my friend. Always enjoy talking to you.

5
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:14.519
<v Speaker 1>Good morning. It's it's a meme stock week. You know

6
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>the memes are backs.

7
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:17.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I read a couple of articles about that.

8
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, yes, just leave them alone. Krispy Kreme open

9
00:00:21.879 --> 00:00:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Door Coles. Yeah, they've been flying up. That social media

10
00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:28.199
<v Speaker 1>frenzy is what drives them up. And Brian, a few

11
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:30.640
<v Speaker 1>people make a great deal of money, but most everybody

12
00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:33.479
<v Speaker 1>else loses and loses a lot. So if you see

13
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:37.640
<v Speaker 1>the headlines, just avoid that emotional tug and leave it

14
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:41.159
<v Speaker 1>alone because they're not good They're not good news.

15
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 2>Isn't it the case that once you see it in

16
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.799
<v Speaker 2>the news, that's whatever meme stock is going through the

17
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:49.679
<v Speaker 2>roof that you've already missed the opportunity, and if you

18
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:51.159
<v Speaker 2>invest any money in it, you're going to be in

19
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:53.520
<v Speaker 2>a downward trajectory in terms of your return.

20
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:56.600
<v Speaker 1>That's about it. Because it's a pump and dump for

21
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 1>a reason. Yeah, and that's exactly what happens. And you

22
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.000
<v Speaker 1>know you hear your friend bragging about how much money

23
00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:05.000
<v Speaker 1>he made, which may or may not be true, and

24
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.319
<v Speaker 1>you feel like you've missed out. So even though the

25
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.319
<v Speaker 1>stock's up, you know, four hundred and eighteen percent, you know, Brian,

26
00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:12.319
<v Speaker 1>it could go up more. So I'm going to put.

27
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Money in it's right.

28
00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no no, it's just that fear of

29
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:19.400
<v Speaker 1>missing out, that emotional it just tug is just too

30
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 1>much for some people. And you just walk away and

31
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:24.599
<v Speaker 1>leave me alone. I remember Game Stop four years ago,

32
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:28.239
<v Speaker 1>that was trading eighteen nineteen dollars a share and it's

33
00:01:28.359 --> 00:01:31.200
<v Speaker 1>peaked a few days later. It was five hundred and

34
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.920
<v Speaker 1>some dollars in pre market before it just came crashing down.

35
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.239
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's insane. Just just leave me alone.

36
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And I guess the key is knowing which meme

37
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 2>stock is going to pop and buying it before it pops.

38
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Who's the insider that knows the answer to that question.

39
00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>That's why, that's who the sec would be talking to.

40
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I guarantee that when you're talking.

41
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 1>About manipulate, manipulate the price of a stock. But it's

42
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:00.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot right now. I mean, forget the memes, we

43
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>have somebody stocks right now that are at all time

44
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.159
<v Speaker 1>highs and continue to push higher. The question is, you know,

45
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.840
<v Speaker 1>how much further can these stocks go before there's some

46
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:13.520
<v Speaker 1>sort of a natural pullback that we that we see

47
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:17.039
<v Speaker 1>in stocks. And I'm not one of these individuals that

48
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, get on people too hard, but you know,

49
00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.319
<v Speaker 1>when they go after stocks at all time highs? Do

50
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>they do that with anything else in their life? Do

51
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:26.759
<v Speaker 1>they go buy cars but only if they're high enough?

52
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:29.199
<v Speaker 1>Or clothes? No, they got to be a little bit

53
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>higher before I buy those. I understand we're talking about investments,

54
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.240
<v Speaker 1>but the whole bit is it's it's totally different than

55
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:38.639
<v Speaker 1>what we look at on any other type of purchase.

56
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:41.400
<v Speaker 1>It's going through the roof, and we still want to

57
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Speaker 1>buy it instead of waiting for there to be a

58
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.439
<v Speaker 1>pullback and then buying it at a discount making a

59
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:48.479
<v Speaker 1>great deal of money. Like Warren Buffett and so many

60
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>others do.

61
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Well daytrade fund dot coms where you find Jay Ratliffe,

62
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>you can learn how to trade stocks and avoid these pitfalls.

63
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 2>And I'll probably get an email maybe an or so

64
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:02.560
<v Speaker 2>from now, telling Jay telling me how much money he

65
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:07.039
<v Speaker 2>made while we were having this conversation. Jay ra No,

66
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 2>I get a kick out of it. Honestly, Jay, So

67
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:10.360
<v Speaker 2>I think.

68
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:11.919
<v Speaker 1>A kick might be the right word if you want

69
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:14.599
<v Speaker 1>to kick me, But yeah, no, I just.

70
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:19.039
<v Speaker 2>Give your hard time anytime. Hang on, brother, We got

71
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>aviation things to talk about, and I got an update

72
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:27.000
<v Speaker 2>here an interesting allegation regard of the Indian aircraft incident

73
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>that Boeing crash. So we'll talk about that right out

74
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.199
<v Speaker 2>of the gate and get to the topics that he

75
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.199
<v Speaker 2>provided me. Just don't go away, be right back, Hey

76
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 2>thirty eightif about Kercity Talk station Bryan Thomins. When I

77
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.639
<v Speaker 2>heard med aviation thing for Jay Ratler, I know it's

78
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:41.159
<v Speaker 2>going to be a long, slong before we finally get

79
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:44.120
<v Speaker 2>the final report on the Indie aircraft investigation, the June

80
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:47.000
<v Speaker 2>twelfth craft that involved the engine cut off, and the

81
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:51.280
<v Speaker 2>question is swirling around that NTSP investigator Greg Fith quoted

82
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 2>as saying, it has become very apparent, especially now with

83
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:55.800
<v Speaker 2>information I know and what's come out of the cockpit

84
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.639
<v Speaker 2>voice recorder where the question is heard, why did you

85
00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:02.000
<v Speaker 2>cut off the fuel? That somebody had to have seen

86
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.400
<v Speaker 2>that action to make the statement, So you just wouldn't

87
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 2>have a dual engine failure. He said, something had to

88
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:10.439
<v Speaker 2>prompt that type of comment. Now we get to the

89
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:12.960
<v Speaker 2>psychology part of it, and that's really where this investigation

90
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 2>is going to go. And oh, by the way, it's

91
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:21.040
<v Speaker 2>no longer an accident, it's investigated as a criminal event.

92
00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:24.920
<v Speaker 2>So that's the direction this Air India crash has turned.

93
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 2>They had another separate investigation. Apparently there was nothing wrong

94
00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:31.199
<v Speaker 2>with the fuel control switches. They worked and operated properly, so,

95
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>in other words, they couldn't just be bumped into and

96
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 2>switched off. Given the mechanics of the switch that prevent

97
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:37.360
<v Speaker 2>that from happening.

98
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:40.639
<v Speaker 1>Well, you and I talked about how you have to

99
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 1>grab the switch, pull it up it's the spring loaded,

100
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:47.480
<v Speaker 1>put it back over the what the middle bumper thing is,

101
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.519
<v Speaker 1>and then slide it back down into the position either

102
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:53.560
<v Speaker 1>on or off. And it's a deliberate type of thing

103
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.319
<v Speaker 1>that you would consciously do. It wouldn't be something that

104
00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.079
<v Speaker 1>you could bump and accidentally happen. And since it's the

105
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.000
<v Speaker 1>switch that act allows the fuel to flow to the engine, Yeah,

106
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:05.240
<v Speaker 1>you want it to be designed that way and it is.

107
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:09.199
<v Speaker 1>So the investigation comes out and they give us the

108
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.600
<v Speaker 1>initial kind of briefing from the cockpit voice recorder showing

109
00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.199
<v Speaker 1>that one of the pilots had said to the other,

110
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:21.319
<v Speaker 1>without naming which one said it, why did you shut

111
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:23.639
<v Speaker 1>off the engines as far as the fuel flow? Yeah,

112
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:27.639
<v Speaker 1>and pass The other one replied, I did not, and

113
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:31.120
<v Speaker 1>then you kind of hear the raised concern and then panic.

114
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:34.439
<v Speaker 1>They're turned back on. But the aircraft is such a

115
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:37.639
<v Speaker 1>low altitude you don't have time for both engines to

116
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:41.079
<v Speaker 1>fully respond. One was in the process of responding, but

117
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:44.040
<v Speaker 1>not enough to provide the necessary lift, the second one

118
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:47.439
<v Speaker 1>not quite yet. So now you're looking at the possibility

119
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:51.759
<v Speaker 1>of an accidental oops, I did that, or a deliberate

120
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>type of situation. Apparently it was the first officer that

121
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:58.319
<v Speaker 1>was in charge of the aircraft itself, so the captain

122
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.680
<v Speaker 1>with fifteen thousand flight hours would have been monitoring everything.

123
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:05.240
<v Speaker 1>He would have been the one that I suspect that

124
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:10.000
<v Speaker 1>would have been the one that might have accidentally intentionally,

125
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>we don't know, switched the fuel off to both engines

126
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:15.360
<v Speaker 1>because the first officer would have been involved in the

127
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.279
<v Speaker 1>aircraft itself as far as flying it, so we don't know.

128
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.079
<v Speaker 1>And when you get into intentions or what might have happened,

129
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:28.279
<v Speaker 1>anything outside of hard, critical evidence, Brian, it's going to

130
00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:32.040
<v Speaker 1>be impossible for us to determine exactly what happened here.

131
00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:35.560
<v Speaker 1>And that's the saddest part is because the captain was

132
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.160
<v Speaker 1>preparing to retire so he could spend time with his

133
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:43.600
<v Speaker 1>ailing father and nothing that at least initially suggests any

134
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.720
<v Speaker 1>sort of a mental distress. He had issues with his

135
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:51.480
<v Speaker 1>mom passing a few years before that required some assistance,

136
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:54.480
<v Speaker 1>but I mean, I certainly don't fault anybody for that,

137
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:56.399
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people that I've talked to in

138
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.639
<v Speaker 1>the pilot to community are saying, it's really unfair for

139
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:03.079
<v Speaker 1>us to get this small little snippet from the cockpit

140
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>voice recorder instead of the entire recording, as far as

141
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the transcript so that we can see exactly what was

142
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:13.519
<v Speaker 1>transpiring before that might have alluded to a little bit

143
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:16.199
<v Speaker 1>more of this. So it raises a lot more questions.

144
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.879
<v Speaker 1>But the sad reality is absent of a very clear

145
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:23.560
<v Speaker 1>mechanical situation or something else, we don't know for sure,

146
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:25.480
<v Speaker 1>and that means that we're not going to be able

147
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>to honor the lives of those that were killed by

148
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.879
<v Speaker 1>learning and making aviation safer. It's going to have a

149
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:33.879
<v Speaker 1>big fat question mark over this because we're just going

150
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>to have to give it our best assessment on what

151
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:40.639
<v Speaker 1>might probably happen. And when you're talking about the all

152
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.879
<v Speaker 1>star teams that are involved in this type of an investigation,

153
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:48.040
<v Speaker 1>they want specifics, they want answers, they want both sides

154
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.279
<v Speaker 1>of that balance sheet to come out. And when you

155
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:54.759
<v Speaker 1>can't provide an answer for a question, it just it

156
00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.319
<v Speaker 1>means forever we're not going to know what happened.

157
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, and maybe that's a a sound reason

158
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.439
<v Speaker 2>for putting video cameras in cockpits, so there's no speculation

159
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:08.439
<v Speaker 2>as to who did what and when. Yes, the recorder

160
00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>does indicate that the switch was turned off, but that

161
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:14.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't answer the why question or who did it question

162
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.519
<v Speaker 2>that we're talking about and struggling with here, which, as

163
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:18.040
<v Speaker 2>you indicate, we'll probably never know.

164
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.120
<v Speaker 1>So in Pilot's fight the camera in the cockpit, they

165
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:25.240
<v Speaker 1>have fought that big time because they're saying it prevents

166
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:27.560
<v Speaker 1>them or could be used against them in a non

167
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:31.120
<v Speaker 1>accident type of thing for further later disciplinary action if

168
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:33.399
<v Speaker 1>something is uncovered or seen or what have you.

169
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:37.039
<v Speaker 2>Right, that's what video cameras are for, Jay, And.

170
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.480
<v Speaker 1>If you don't own the airline that you work for.

171
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that you necessarily have a say in this.

172
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:45.679
<v Speaker 1>But the union's very powerful and they prevented this from happening.

173
00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:48.039
<v Speaker 1>I know that trucks have them, trains have them, other

174
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:53.159
<v Speaker 1>types of transportation. You know, devices had those, but they've

175
00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:56.159
<v Speaker 1>been able to be kept out of the cockpit. And

176
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 1>to me, yeah, it would add another piece to the puzzle,

177
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:04.200
<v Speaker 1>allowing us to see a better picture. And if safety

178
00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>is really our number one priority, I'm sorry if it

179
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.200
<v Speaker 1>defends pilots, I'm sorry if they find it uncomfortable.

180
00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh Dan, I don't have any sympathy from them at

181
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.000
<v Speaker 2>all on that standpoint. Were surrounded by Yeah, safety comes first,

182
00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:20.879
<v Speaker 2>the passengers come first. We're deserving of answers to questions

183
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:23.759
<v Speaker 2>why the damn airplane fell out of the sky. That's

184
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.759
<v Speaker 2>Air Egypt, it's some Malaysian aircraft. I mean, any number

185
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:28.360
<v Speaker 2>of these, although I guess you couldn't find the video

186
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:30.279
<v Speaker 2>recorder with the air Malaysian because they couldn't find the

187
00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:34.360
<v Speaker 2>damn plane anyway. Earlier, I guess we had an Antonov

188
00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:38.600
<v Speaker 2>eight and twenty four plane crash, Russian plane. I know

189
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:40.600
<v Speaker 2>there were two early on details on this, But you

190
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.720
<v Speaker 2>did see that was reporting a twin turboprop.

191
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's the aircraft itself was about fifty years old,

192
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:49.240
<v Speaker 1>which normally is really an issue in the Enist States

193
00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:54.519
<v Speaker 1>because oh, yeah, fifty it's a twin engine in the

194
00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:58.519
<v Speaker 1>turboprop aircraft. But Brian, like, if I'm not talking Russia,

195
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about here in the United States. If you've

196
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:04.440
<v Speaker 1>got an older airplane, it's constantly being rebuilt, the engines,

197
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, every aspect of it. Now, when we're talking

198
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>about a Russian plane that old, who knows. Because they've

199
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>had a situation with replacement parts and things that have

200
00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:17.240
<v Speaker 1>been in part because of the embargo. They've had a

201
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.799
<v Speaker 1>very hard time finding parts because when the war with

202
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Ukraine broke out, there were a lot of suppliers that

203
00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:26.279
<v Speaker 1>stopped selling them replacement parts, so they had to kind

204
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:29.519
<v Speaker 1>of candle up campbalize parts from other aircraft hoping that

205
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.960
<v Speaker 1>they would fit kind of thing, what have you. But

206
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>on this particular one, there's a video of the aircraft

207
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 1>apparently in operation over the mountains moments before the crash,

208
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:41.440
<v Speaker 1>and there did not appear to be any indications of

209
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.039
<v Speaker 1>operational distress. Both engines seem to be running, no smoke

210
00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:49.000
<v Speaker 1>coming from the aircraft anything like that, but apparently crashed

211
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:51.919
<v Speaker 1>into a mountain about nine miles from the airport. They

212
00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:55.840
<v Speaker 1>had a total of forty three passengers six crew members,

213
00:10:56.399 --> 00:11:00.000
<v Speaker 1>so a total we're total of forty nine souls on board.

214
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:04.080
<v Speaker 1>The video of the wreckage site. Uh, I mean there

215
00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:07.840
<v Speaker 1>could be survivors, but we don't know because there's not

216
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:11.799
<v Speaker 1>much left. But it's just a situation where you know,

217
00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to reach where this was at, and they're

218
00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:17.960
<v Speaker 1>going to get there and conduct the search and rescue

219
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.919
<v Speaker 1>and then it'll turn into a recovery mission after that.

220
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:23.720
<v Speaker 1>But h I don't know exactly what that cause was.

221
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:27.279
<v Speaker 1>But Brian, I don't think you could consciously get me

222
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.679
<v Speaker 1>onto a Russian airport of any kind.

223
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Anywhere fair enough. They're keeping them in the air of

224
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.080
<v Speaker 2>the way Boeing manufactures them, going to the spare parts

225
00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:36.759
<v Speaker 2>pack that.

226
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Would connect those dots. But I can tell you that,

227
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:42.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, their their safety record has just not been

228
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 1>as comfortable as we would like it to be. And

229
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:48.519
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's a situation that it's just if I'm

230
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:50.320
<v Speaker 1>going to err on the side of caution and I'm

231
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:53.440
<v Speaker 1>going to and in every aspect that I can, getting

232
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:56.440
<v Speaker 1>on board a Russian airliner is just not something I'm

233
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:56.840
<v Speaker 1>going to do.

234
00:11:57.039 --> 00:11:59.559
<v Speaker 2>Low order a priority for Jay Ratlift. Let's pause and

235
00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:02.559
<v Speaker 2>bring you find out what text? What is a Family

236
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.360
<v Speaker 2>on the Fly program? We'll talk about that a couple

237
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>more topics where we part company this morning, stick around,

238
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 2>be right back. Fifty five KRC the talk station a neighbor,

239
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, eight fifty here fig about their CD

240
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:19.120
<v Speaker 2>talk station in Bronzana is doing this thing we call

241
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 2>Aviation Day with I heard met the aviation next birth

242
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Jay Ratliffe. Jay, flipping over to some topics you provided

243
00:12:27.000 --> 00:12:30.399
<v Speaker 2>Family on the Fly program. The TSA did this. What's this?

244
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:35.399
<v Speaker 1>It's a separate line for families screening line at the airport.

245
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a it's going to be a trial situation first

246
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:41.159
<v Speaker 1>or rolling it out in Charlotte and I believe Orlando

247
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:46.200
<v Speaker 1>where those with families can go to this specific line.

248
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:48.919
<v Speaker 1>There's a little bit more room as parents many times

249
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:52.720
<v Speaker 1>need with their kids traveling, and it's designed for people

250
00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:55.799
<v Speaker 1>that are flying with families, maybe they haven't flown that

251
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:57.679
<v Speaker 1>much whatever, and it's going to be a little bit

252
00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:00.559
<v Speaker 1>slower of a process. But what it does it kind

253
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>of gets everybody that's flying with kids over in one spot,

254
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:06.200
<v Speaker 1>so that the men and women that are flying on

255
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:08.879
<v Speaker 1>business that kind of zip through security to do so

256
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:12.559
<v Speaker 1>without being behind a lot of people that maybe would

257
00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:15.600
<v Speaker 1>slow things. Now. It's a great move from the TSA.

258
00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 1>In fact, it's one of those things like ge, why

259
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.440
<v Speaker 1>didn't we think about this before? Because it's going to

260
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:22.080
<v Speaker 1>be good for the families and it's going to be

261
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.399
<v Speaker 1>good for others as they kind of get through the

262
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>security checkpoint. So I'm thrilled to see it. I think

263
00:13:27.639 --> 00:13:29.960
<v Speaker 1>they've got another line that's being made available for the

264
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.399
<v Speaker 1>military as well. Those types of things. The TSA is

265
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.279
<v Speaker 1>always looking to try to expedite the process of getting

266
00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.639
<v Speaker 1>us through the security checkpoint. And it's a really good

267
00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:42.000
<v Speaker 1>one because it's going to make things a little bit easier,

268
00:13:42.279 --> 00:13:44.399
<v Speaker 1>especially with people flying with kids. I know a lot

269
00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.679
<v Speaker 1>of times those of us with kids, if they start

270
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.279
<v Speaker 1>to slow things back, we feel guilty because we're slowing

271
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the process behind us. This is going to alleviate some

272
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.320
<v Speaker 1>of that, and I think it's going to be very

273
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:58.519
<v Speaker 1>well received. Again, those two airports first and then after that,

274
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:01.320
<v Speaker 1>it's going to spread out to other airports across the

275
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:03.240
<v Speaker 1>country once some of the bugs it worked.

276
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:04.919
<v Speaker 2>Out, all right, Well, I kind of had I wanted

277
00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:07.600
<v Speaker 2>to ask you about this Delta regional jet and had

278
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:10.279
<v Speaker 2>to what duck, dip, dodge, dive and duck to get

279
00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:12.399
<v Speaker 2>out of the way of a B fifty two bomber.

280
00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:14.399
<v Speaker 2>What's what happened here?

281
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, the B fifty two was doing a fly by

282
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:21.279
<v Speaker 1>over a fare and anytime that's done, they communicate that

283
00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:24.200
<v Speaker 1>long in advance with federal AB's administration. Here's our plans,

284
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.759
<v Speaker 1>here's our flight plan. All of it's approved, and typically,

285
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:30.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, the local airports made aware of it, and

286
00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:34.519
<v Speaker 1>you know everybody's on the same page. It was not

287
00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the case here because apparently the regional jet was where

288
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>it should be should have been, and the military aircraft

289
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:45.159
<v Speaker 1>was flying on its predetermined and approved flight path. So

290
00:14:45.840 --> 00:14:48.519
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden you have the regional pilots the

291
00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Delta Commuter regional jet look up and they see this

292
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 1>aircraft off to the side, thing of WHOA, what's going

293
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:57.240
<v Speaker 1>on here? Weren't expecting that, and there was a little

294
00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>bit of confusion from air traffic control. The there which

295
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 1>is not better employees. It's a separate company that manages

296
00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:08.879
<v Speaker 1>that particular one on exactly the course that the regional

297
00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:12.799
<v Speaker 1>jet needed to take, and it was the Delta captain

298
00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:17.120
<v Speaker 1>that took the initiative to take that airplane in essence,

299
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:21.080
<v Speaker 1>fly back behind the B fifty two as it passed,

300
00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:24.000
<v Speaker 1>and it was a pretty severe bank when you listened

301
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:26.919
<v Speaker 1>to the passengers that were on board the flight, and

302
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:29.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, they turned around and got back in line

303
00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and land, and when they did, the Delta pilot came

304
00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:35.360
<v Speaker 1>on board and told the passengers, okay, here's why we

305
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:37.519
<v Speaker 1>had to do what we did, and was very transparent,

306
00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:40.279
<v Speaker 1>and the people on board the flight were very appreciative

307
00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:42.600
<v Speaker 1>of that because they knew something had happened, they just

308
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:46.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't know what. And the captain of it was its

309
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Endeavor Air. It's a flight operating as a Delta connection.

310
00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:53.360
<v Speaker 1>The captain explained, look, that's not normal, that normally doesn't happen,

311
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:57.919
<v Speaker 1>and apologized for some of those anxious moments. But you know, again,

312
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.240
<v Speaker 1>a very good job and we can learn from this,

313
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:03.919
<v Speaker 1>which again makes aviation safer absent of anybody getting hurt

314
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:05.360
<v Speaker 1>or killed, and that's always a good thing.

315
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, I imagine it shocked the hell out of when

316
00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:09.559
<v Speaker 2>the piles looked over and saw a B fifty two

317
00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:13.159
<v Speaker 2>right there, Well that plane.

318
00:16:13.000 --> 00:16:15.519
<v Speaker 1>That are looking at the window saying I can see

319
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:18.120
<v Speaker 1>the ground straight down because they were tipped I mean

320
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:21.759
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good angle when he was banking that bad boy.

321
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.159
<v Speaker 1>But you know, these men and women that the fly

322
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>these planes are I mean a lot of them are

323
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>former military and very well trained, and you know, they

324
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:34.039
<v Speaker 1>just respond, they react and they don't sit there and think.

325
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:36.679
<v Speaker 1>And you know, it's a situation where you know, they

326
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:39.080
<v Speaker 1>do what they need to do and they understand they've

327
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:42.519
<v Speaker 1>got other people's lives at their you know, in their hands,

328
00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>and they've got to do everything that they can to

329
00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:48.200
<v Speaker 1>protect the people, the souls on board the aircraft. So yeah,

330
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:52.000
<v Speaker 1>they did a good job. And again there was a

331
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:54.639
<v Speaker 1>breakdown in communication somewhere. I S'll just have to find

332
00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.240
<v Speaker 1>out where it was at. But you know, we're so

333
00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.600
<v Speaker 1>so not so far removed from that January since situation

334
00:17:01.639 --> 00:17:04.519
<v Speaker 1>where we have the helicopter crash of the helicopter in

335
00:17:04.519 --> 00:17:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the regional aircraft is like, you know, who shut her?

336
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Here we go again. But you know, it ended well

337
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:13.160
<v Speaker 1>and we're gonna learn from.

338
00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:13.799
<v Speaker 2>It real quick.

339
00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:14.079
<v Speaker 1>Here.

340
00:17:14.559 --> 00:17:16.759
<v Speaker 2>What's it like for travel out there today? Air travel?

341
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:19.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, from a thunderstorm stampoint, we get a lot

342
00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:22.759
<v Speaker 1>of storms. They're going to be like you know, giving

343
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:27.119
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans and Des Moines, Iowa Ago. But as far

344
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:29.440
<v Speaker 1>as from a hut standpoint, not really much out there.

345
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Those afternoon aggravating thunderstorms that are popping up all over

346
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:35.319
<v Speaker 1>the place that are slowing things down by thirty to

347
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:37.720
<v Speaker 1>forty five minutes, but Brian, they're minimal. So if you

348
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:40.119
<v Speaker 1>picked today to fly, you picked a good one. There's

349
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:42.000
<v Speaker 1>going to be some turbulence out there as you fly,

350
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.000
<v Speaker 1>just keep your seat belt on. It's not dangerous, just uncomfortable.

351
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:47.559
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, get to the airport early because we got

352
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:48.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that are flying.
