Speaker 1: Tiver the weather today.
Speaker 2: We get clouds up until around one o'clock and that's
Speaker 2: when the sun shows up high at fifty five today.
Speaker 2: The clouds over nact down to thirty mostly sunny skies
Speaker 2: tomorrow with the higher forty two thirty three overnight low
Speaker 2: with clouds and then some rain in the daytime sometime
Speaker 2: on Saturday. Anyway, expects some rain Saturday hids in the
Speaker 2: mid fifties. It's forty four right now, in time for trafficks.

Speaker 3: A bit of good news. They've opened up the right
Speaker 3: lane on westbound Fort Washington Way. That's helping traffic off
Speaker 3: of southbound seventy one. Still blocked off inbound Columbia Parkway
Speaker 3: and you have to exit the third street. That's a
Speaker 3: rex southbound seventy five at Desert Charles in the center
Speaker 3: lanes Chuck Ingramont fifty five KR.
Speaker 1: See the talk station. I think about case the talks today. Jay.
Speaker 2: It's Thursday's time for iHeart Mediavas next Bird Jay Ratliffe.
Speaker 2: Love having Jar on the program. I was like wrapping
Speaker 2: up the Thursday morning shows usually on a lighthearted note,
Speaker 2: although of late we've had some pretty bad aviation news.
Speaker 2: But real quick, before we get to Jay, I want
Speaker 2: a special shout out thank you to not only everybody
Speaker 2: who went to Listener Lunch yesterday. I had a fantastic time,
Speaker 2: but if you didn't get a chance to listen every
Speaker 2: Wednesday at seven oh five we hear from Jack Atherton.
Speaker 2: He's a brilliant, brilliant guy, great commentator. Jack in his
Speaker 2: beautiful better half Ainsley made it to lunch yesterday and
Speaker 2: that was quite a trip for them. Shout out to
Speaker 2: Jack and Amesley. Great ceing Eesjy. I had quite a
Speaker 2: few listeners chime in to me and letting me know
Speaker 2: that the how pleased they were to meet you. One
Speaker 2: of my fraternity brothers, Maggie. They said you are two
Speaker 2: of the nicest people he's ever met, and I can
Speaker 2: only agree with that all day long. One of the
Speaker 2: other nicest people ever meet, Jay Ratliff, Thanks for biting
Speaker 2: by my words there and welcome back to the morning show.
Speaker 2: It's always my pleasure to have you on the show.
Speaker 4: Well, Jack and I have teamed up for some things
Speaker 4: over the years, so believe me, anytime you want to
Speaker 4: brag on heat and is lovely White by all means
Speaker 4: do so.
Speaker 2: They are truly fantastic folks. All right, what's the latest?
Speaker 2: We have two obviously terrible aviation incidents to talk about.
Speaker 1: What's the latest on the DC.
Speaker 2: A plane running into the helicopter, or as the case,
Speaker 2: maybe the helicopter running into the plane, which seems to
Speaker 2: be what's happening. The suggestion I've read is that the
Speaker 2: helicopter was flying at too high of an altitude.
Speaker 4: It was, yeah, and the initial focus for the National
Speaker 4: Transportation Safety Board was to recover the wreckage of the
Speaker 4: downed airliner first and then go after retrieving the helicopter.
Speaker 4: And that's what they're in the process of doing now.
Speaker 4: Because they were two separate spots where they came down,
Speaker 4: and the priority was the airliner. They've been able to
Speaker 4: take care of that. They've got the black boxes, they'll
Speaker 4: be able to determine some and a little disappointed that
Speaker 4: the black Hawk did not have a black box type
Speaker 4: of component that would allow them to listen to the
Speaker 4: conversations that were ongoing and the Yeah, some black Hawks
Speaker 4: have it, and I was hopeful that this was the case.
Speaker 4: But the latest word that we had, and of course, Brian,
Speaker 4: it may change if my information is wrong, but it
Speaker 4: does not have that capability, which means that they're going
Speaker 4: to the investigators are going to have to rely on
Speaker 4: the back and forth, the time stamps, the different types
Speaker 4: of things that they've got from a data standpoint to
Speaker 4: try to figure out why that aircraft was where it
Speaker 4: was supposed to be or where it was. Because you're right,
Speaker 4: when the crash first took place and I heard the altitude,
Speaker 4: I thought they can't be right because they've got that
Speaker 4: ceiling of two hundred feet and I can't see any
Speaker 4: reason why any helicopter crew would go above that, knowing
Speaker 4: that the commercial lanes that are there, especially going and
Speaker 4: had a runway three to three there.
Speaker 5: So, yeah, the.
Speaker 4: Investigation continues there. And we did also find out that
Speaker 4: the NTSB told us that the jetliner did try to
Speaker 4: elevate at the last moment, apparently when they first saw
Speaker 4: the helicopter, and of course at that point in time,
Speaker 4: it was simply too late for them to do anything.
Speaker 5: Brian.
Speaker 4: The just the weirdest thing is when you look at
Speaker 4: some of these different videos, it's not like the helicopter
Speaker 4: came up from underneath and the collision took place.
Speaker 5: They were not pointed at each.
Speaker 4: Other, but I mean they almost were looking at each
Speaker 4: other as they were going in, making you think, what
Speaker 4: in the world was the flight crew of the helicopter
Speaker 4: not looking at exactly to see it, because it just.
Speaker 2: It was like a dark being thrown in a dark board.
Speaker 2: It was dead on collision. I mean, you couldn't if
Speaker 2: you wanted to, You couldn't hit it more directly.
Speaker 4: If this were a terrorist attack, that's exactly you know,
Speaker 4: I think out would look. Not that I'm suggesting an
Speaker 4: anyway that's this, but it's the crew's attention or whatever
Speaker 4: was elsewhere. And again we don't know if there was
Speaker 4: a mechanical situation that was that the crew was battling
Speaker 4: at the time that might have taken their attention away
Speaker 4: from some of the critical moments of flight.
Speaker 5: There what we just don't know.
Speaker 4: I do know that my confidence in the National Transportation
Speaker 4: Safety Board is unbelievably high. And if there's a group
Speaker 4: of men and women. They're going to be able to
Speaker 4: find out exactly what happened and give to the Federal
Speaker 4: Aviation Administration a list of recommendations on how we can
Speaker 4: make aviation safer.
Speaker 5: They're going to be the ones that do it.
Speaker 4: But as I've told you before, my biggest fear is
Speaker 4: we're going to discover that this accident was easily.
Speaker 2: And what you're suggesting is the negligence on the part
Speaker 2: of the helicopter bolet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and again it's an incredibly early statement to make,
Speaker 4: but based on the evidence as we're seeing it now,
Speaker 4: I mean, it's obvious that the RJ was where it
Speaker 4: was supposed to be.
Speaker 5: The Americans final exactly where they were supposed to.
Speaker 4: We also can say that the helicopter crew was not
Speaker 4: where they were supposed to. Now, again, that may be negligence,
Speaker 4: it may be mechanical, it may be again the medical
Speaker 4: episode involving one of the pilots that caused.
Speaker 5: That altitude deviation to take place. We don't know.
Speaker 4: But far too often in the history of aviation, when
Speaker 4: you look at the decades and decades of as accidents
Speaker 4: near accidents, the human element tends to come into play,
Speaker 4: and almost all of them. It may not be the cause,
Speaker 4: but it's a contributing cause many many times. And that's
Speaker 4: why a lot of these well meaning individuals will say, Jay,
Speaker 4: that's why we need to have airplanes with no pilots,
Speaker 4: because then we can avoid these mistakes from being made
Speaker 4: and make aviation safer.
Speaker 5: And of course I don't agree with that at all.
Speaker 4: But it is sad that there's always that human element
Speaker 4: that seems to be there, which is why, you know,
Speaker 4: you've always heard me say before this that we were
Speaker 4: in going the safest there ever of commercial jet travel,
Speaker 4: but we had to be incredibly vigilant to make sure
Speaker 4: that that continued to be the case, because we get sloppy.
Speaker 4: Human nature is just that we get complacent, we get
Speaker 4: a little sloppy, and as a result, mistakes can take place.
Speaker 4: And you know, we've already seen the FAA shut down
Speaker 4: that corridor for the helicopter traffic there at the Regae
Speaker 4: National Airport, which is good and that'll probably.
Speaker 5: Be prom in it, but I suspect that we're going
Speaker 5: to also see.
Speaker 4: Some other recommendations that are going to be made, and then,
Speaker 4: of course, you know, one of the things that just
Speaker 4: drives me out of my mind is that the NTSB
Speaker 4: may give the FAA fifteen different points, and the FAA
Speaker 4: may implement one, maybe two. It's not a stamp approval
Speaker 4: as you do all of them, because many times the
Speaker 4: airline industry and their lobbying group and others can apply
Speaker 4: a little pressure saying no, we don't want to do this, this,
Speaker 4: and this, because it would cost too much more money,
Speaker 4: and then it would cause a raise. We would have
Speaker 4: to raise fares, and then that would be really bad
Speaker 4: for the consumers. Let's not do that. That kind of garbage.
Speaker 4: And where safety then becomes a you know, a negotiating
Speaker 4: type of thing, it's just, oh, so, well, you know,
Speaker 4: that's where we are in as far as the DC
Speaker 4: the DC.
Speaker 2: Craft, and we'll get to the Philly crasher when we
Speaker 2: come back. But the bottom line is, I just can't
Speaker 2: for the life we figure out how in the hell
Speaker 2: it is that it was in any way, shape or
Speaker 2: form the right thing to do to allow a military
Speaker 2: helicopter to fly right there indirect on a final approach path.
Speaker 2: Is there really a need to do that? You can't
Speaker 2: just deviate a mile right or left and go around
Speaker 2: that congested area.
Speaker 4: Whatever, Well, we keep most We keep most of them.
Speaker 4: They keep them within the confines of the river, if
Speaker 4: you will, going up and down through there. So that's
Speaker 4: their corridor. And I mean there's nothing but military aircraft
Speaker 4: up there.
Speaker 5: Uh, They're everywhere.
Speaker 4: And there's always been this this you know, combination, this
Speaker 4: influx of both commerci and military aircraft. Normally, even though
Speaker 4: there's occasionally where you have one that'll have to deviate
Speaker 4: and go around or approach differently or cancel of takeoff,
Speaker 4: it happens, but that happens at every airport. Most of
Speaker 4: the time, this operates exactly as it's supposed to. In
Speaker 4: this case, it didn't, and it with horrific.
Speaker 1: Consequences, absolutely horrific.
Speaker 2: Speaking horrific, the Philly crash, we'll talk about that, plus
Speaker 2: a couple got sued by an airline costs a lot
Speaker 2: of money. We'll also talk about Elon Musk ready to
Speaker 2: make some technical upgrades air traffic control much needed, apparently
Speaker 2: more with Jay Ratliffe coming up next, Don't Go.
Speaker 3: Away fifty five KRC run a business and not thinking
Speaker 3: about it.
Speaker 2: Continuing our conversation every Thursday for a few segments with
Speaker 2: Jay Ratliff, which I truly appreciate any my listeners enjoy
Speaker 2: hearing from you as well. Jay, Moving away from the
Speaker 2: DC crash over to Philly crash, the one thing I
Speaker 2: heard it was suggested is that there was a weight
Speaker 2: shift which caused the plane to stop any further developments
Speaker 2: beyond that speculation that was initially raised.
Speaker 4: Now that was that's still pretty much something that's being
Speaker 4: looked at as probable. And I think the reason that
Speaker 4: we so many of us went in that direction early
Speaker 4: was the video of that aircraft coming out of the sky.
Speaker 4: If that airplane takes off, loses its engines, it becomes
Speaker 4: a glider. So at fifteen hundred feet you've got x
Speaker 4: amount of distance before that airplane has to come down.
Speaker 5: But it's a controlled descent.
Speaker 4: This airplane just fell out of the sky, which means
Speaker 4: either structurally something came off the aircraft disrupting the lift
Speaker 4: and down it came with the pilots not having an
Speaker 4: ability to control it, or something happened to that center
Speaker 4: of gravity that shifted at a critical moment, And of
Speaker 4: course weight and balance being everything on an aircraft. If
Speaker 4: you've got an airplane at that critical moment that's taking
Speaker 4: off and you've got a sudden and unexpected shift of
Speaker 4: gravity in that aircraft. What could take place is it
Speaker 4: could actually cause the airplane to change its inclination to
Speaker 4: the air over the wing then gets disrupted. The lift
Speaker 4: is no longer there, and the airplane goes into a stall.
Speaker 1: It just falls like it falls like a dead weight
Speaker 1: out of the sky. Then it does.
Speaker 5: It does.
Speaker 4: And if you were you know, altitude twenty thirty thousand feet,
Speaker 4: no problem. You just point the nose down, you build
Speaker 4: up the speed, and the airflow over the wings re zumed,
Speaker 4: lift is restored and off you go. But if you're
Speaker 4: fifteen hundred feet Brian, there's nothing you can do. And
Speaker 4: some of the most horrific if you YouTube searched, there's
Speaker 4: a seven forty seven the cargo plane that was taking
Speaker 4: off that had that exact same thing happen, and it's
Speaker 4: a horrific video to watch. But the airplane takes off
Speaker 4: and it has that shift of gravity where the cargo
Speaker 4: came loose, and you can see the moment at a
Speaker 4: very low altitude that that aircraft the crew lost complete
Speaker 4: control and that airplane just falls right out of the sky.
Speaker 4: But that's why everything is strapped down. Everything is it
Speaker 4: just it's there's just no room.
Speaker 1: For air No, and you know what you're doing.
Speaker 2: You are also pointing out the importance of the folks
Speaker 2: that load the plane, you know, the common laborer who
Speaker 2: are putting things in the cargo bay of the plane.
Speaker 2: They are critical the life saving saving lives on that,
Speaker 2: whether it's the crew or the entire list of passengers.
Speaker 2: That it's just an amazing reality that a shifting weight
Speaker 2: in the bottom of the airplane could just make it
Speaker 2: drop like a rock.
Speaker 4: If it's significant in size, yes, if you know, if
Speaker 4: you've got six bags rolling around, that's not gonna be
Speaker 4: an issue. But if you've got something of substantial weight
Speaker 4: that shifts quickly from one side to the next, yeah,
Speaker 4: it's going to be something that could just caut some
Speaker 4: some big time problems for the flight crew. And sadly,
Speaker 4: if it's a little altitude, there's nothing that they can
Speaker 4: do about it. And that crew knew that there was
Speaker 4: nothing they could do about it. And I tell you
Speaker 4: it's just when you look at you know, aviation and things.
Speaker 4: That's one of the reasons that weight and balance is
Speaker 4: so critical, where everything is measured and weighed so that
Speaker 4: we know wait wise, how much fuel, how much cargo,
Speaker 4: which part of the aircraft it's in, how many passengers are.
Speaker 4: And that's why sometimes when you are on a flight
Speaker 4: that maybe isn't full, you'll have the pass the flight
Speaker 4: tends come back and say, hey, we need you six
Speaker 4: people to move to the back of the airplane, or
Speaker 4: we need you to come over here. And what they're
Speaker 4: doing is at the pilot's instruction, distributing that weight a
Speaker 4: little bit better throughout the cabin right so that it's
Speaker 4: going to make it easier for the crew to maintain
Speaker 4: control of the flight. So yeah, if you're ever asked
Speaker 4: to move, please please don't throw a fIF Please please
Speaker 4: don't throw fIF You.
Speaker 2: Know what, you're doing absolutely nothing today to make me
Speaker 2: want to fly. I know this is you and you
Speaker 2: say flight it's all safe and compared to being in
Speaker 2: a car and all that.
Speaker 1: I get it. I know the statistics, but jeez, little wise,
Speaker 1: the smallest like.
Speaker 4: Going outside and getting struck by lightning twice in the
Speaker 4: same day, twice in the same day. So I mean
Speaker 4: that's you know, I will go out and get on
Speaker 4: an airplane. I'll put my kids, my grandkids, my wife,
Speaker 4: my mom, I mean without hesitation, but when I recognize
Speaker 4: here in the United States we do it better than
Speaker 4: anybody on the planet, and there's a lot of things
Speaker 4: we can do better, and we will, but you know,
Speaker 4: it's I'm just I'm just thrilled that we have this
Speaker 4: dedication to safety as we have here in the United States,
Speaker 4: because the mechanics, the pilots, the training, the way the
Speaker 4: aircraft are built to the NTSB, even the FAA oversight.
Speaker 4: You know, many times I'll give them the credit that
Speaker 4: they deserve. It's a large group of people that do
Speaker 4: an incredible job daily to keep all of us safe.
Speaker 4: And you know, when there's a breakdown, it can be costly,
Speaker 4: and it's one of the reasons you've just got to
Speaker 4: stay super.
Speaker 2: Vigilant, no question about it. Can we stick around? We
Speaker 2: paused from Rome and come we need to talk about
Speaker 2: these other two. We got two more cop topics we
Speaker 2: talk about, plus a hub delay update from Jay Ratlift.
Speaker 1: Stick around at eight forty six fifty five KRC. There
Speaker 1: are two types of pain in the world. One more
Speaker 1: time with the Channeline weather.
Speaker 2: We got clouds until around one o'clock when we get
Speaker 2: the sun back fifty five for the high today, clouds
Speaker 2: over night thirty tomorrow mostly sunny. Sky's forty two thirty
Speaker 2: three every night with clouds and rain in the daytime.
Speaker 2: On Saturday, high in the mid fifties. We're closing out
Speaker 2: of forty four degrees and one more time for traffic from.
Speaker 1: The UCL Tramphic Center.
Speaker 3: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US.
Speaker 3: If you're at risk, trust the experts that you see
Speaker 3: health for innovative and personalized hardcare.
Speaker 1: Expect more at uc health dot com.
Speaker 3: They've opened up the right lane on westbound for Washington
Speaker 3: Way that's helping traffic Office seventy one into downtown. Looks
Speaker 3: like things are still blocked off on inbound Columbia Parkway
Speaker 3: at Third Street southbound seventy five. There's a record aser
Speaker 3: Charles Center by ains packing traffic to seventy four. Chut
Speaker 3: Kingbram Moon fifty five krsc HE Talks station, Hey.
Speaker 2: Fifty you think about CAIRCD talk station Happy Thursday too
Speaker 2: and tomorrow at six thirty am with Tech Friday's Dave Hatter.
Speaker 2: In the meantime, one more time with I heartb the
Speaker 2: Aviation next for Jay Ratliffe ninety thousand, dollars.
Speaker 1: What happened, Well, we.
Speaker 4: Had a couple on an Avianca flight and they got
Speaker 4: to fight this couple and as a result, the man
Speaker 4: throws the phone at his wife and it hits the
Speaker 4: wall and overheats and starts to catch fire. So now
Speaker 4: the crew has to decide to go back and land
Speaker 4: because of the smoldering fire that they have on board
Speaker 4: the aircraft. Well, the aircraft is too heavy to land.
Speaker 4: It's not yet a critical situation, so they decide to
Speaker 4: burn off the fuel for three hours and then land
Speaker 4: the airplane so that a the passengers that were disrupted
Speaker 4: can be removed, the damage to the inside of the
Speaker 4: aircraft can be rep aired, and then they can take
Speaker 4: care of the rest of the customers. The airline decided
Speaker 4: to sue this couple for ninety thousand dollars in part
Speaker 4: for the damage to the aircraft the fuel that they
Speaker 4: had to expend trying to land after the event took place,
Speaker 4: because you can land too heavy, and you don't want
Speaker 4: to do that if you don't have to unless it's
Speaker 4: a dire emergency situation. And yeah, the thought processes. If
Speaker 4: you find these individuals enough, Brian, maybe it'll help future behavior.
Speaker 4: I doubt it, but you know, at least you hope
Speaker 4: that's going to be the case.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question about it. Cautionary tale, right, get the load.
Speaker 4: I told you, these are the people that you put
Speaker 4: their pictures in the TSA area anytime that you've got
Speaker 4: that long screening line where every so often their picture
Speaker 4: pops up with the dollar amount underneath they were fined exact.
Speaker 4: It reminds people constantly, and you know that there are consequences,
Speaker 4: and we're seeing more airlines do that, especially on diverted flights,
Speaker 4: and I'm glad to see it because you're inconveniencing everybody
Speaker 4: on that airplane and everybody that's waiting on that airplane
Speaker 4: at the next stop that's going to be canceled as well.
Speaker 2: The fact that people are so oblivious to the concerns
Speaker 2: and and and the needs of other people. It's just
Speaker 2: it's obviously a growing phenomenon. People are very, very selfish
Speaker 2: and don't care about other people. All right, Elon Musk,
Speaker 2: is he going to fix it? We had a real
Speaker 2: problem with air traffic control shortage of them. That's one
Speaker 2: of the things that they said was could have been
Speaker 2: a problem in DC, but I saw the other day.
Speaker 2: I guess two aircraft ran into each other on the
Speaker 2: runway on Wednesday, a Japanese airliner and I guess some
Speaker 2: delta flight. But that's an air traffic control issue, I
Speaker 2: would imagine, So what's going on and what do we
Speaker 2: need to fix?
Speaker 1: Jay?
Speaker 4: Yeah, on that way was a delta flight was being
Speaker 4: deced and you know the japan Airlines plane taxing by
Speaker 4: and think nailed it.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 4: Pretty easy to tell who's at fault there, yep, because
Speaker 4: only one of the two airplanes were moving. But you know,
Speaker 4: Elon Musk is a very it kind of guy, and
Speaker 4: I would pay I would have paid money to have
Speaker 4: walked with him as he's been given the tour of
Speaker 4: the Federal Alleviation Administration. Air traffic control says where they're
Speaker 4: relying on some of this equipment and technology that it
Speaker 4: goes back seventy years.
Speaker 1: They're still using a giant floppy discs.
Speaker 5: I heard, Well they are.
Speaker 4: There's so many things that have to be upgraded, and
Speaker 4: it would be like, I don't know, I can't even
Speaker 4: think of the comparison. But for somebody like him and
Speaker 4: even President Trump and others that are saying, look this
Speaker 4: is so far past being done here. We've got to
Speaker 4: get this fixed. And other administrations have made a similar assessment,
Speaker 4: but nothing ever seems to get done. And one of
Speaker 4: the frustrations of air traffic control is that these controllers
Speaker 4: have to work with a lot of this antiquated equipment,
Speaker 4: and I'll say that from a retention standpoint, it makes
Speaker 4: their job as controllers more stressful, harder to do. And
Speaker 4: you want to do everything you can to keep these
Speaker 4: men and women sticking around for a while. Let's give
Speaker 4: them state of the art equipment to you, so let's
Speaker 4: make their job easier. Let's let's make aviation safer so
Speaker 4: that we can do everything that we want to do.
Speaker 4: As far as protecting everybody who flies, there's no way
Speaker 4: that you can have two two and a half million
Speaker 4: people fly every day, and I consider that a priority.
Speaker 4: But Brian, the problem has been over the last several decades,
Speaker 4: we found a way to make it work. So in
Speaker 4: the eyes of the people that spend money in Washington, DC,
Speaker 4: why spend hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars on
Speaker 4: this and then a like number here and hundreds of
Speaker 4: million because it's working now, so we can use that
Speaker 4: money elsewhere, and they do. And it's really unfortunate because
Speaker 4: we are so far behind.
Speaker 5: It's going to take a.
Speaker 4: Administration or two to get us caught up. But hopefully
Speaker 4: Trump can get us pointed in the right direction.
Speaker 2: Well, one can only hope, and thinking of a day
Speaker 2: hat or hope they keep security in mind. If they're
Speaker 2: upgrading the air traffic control system by way of keeping
Speaker 2: it from being able to be hacked, all.
Speaker 4: Right, Well that that that for sure. But I just
Speaker 4: can't wait to see the left go nuts. I mean,
Speaker 4: if he makes aviation safer, you know they're going to
Speaker 4: complain and it's.
Speaker 5: Like, it's just a lucy But that's what's how.
Speaker 4: Dare you make it safer for me to fly? I'm
Speaker 4: so glad I didn't vote for you. Yeah, it's just
Speaker 4: it's ridiculous.
Speaker 2: It is absolutely ridiculous. All right, let's conclude, as we
Speaker 2: always do, Hub delays. What's it like out there to be.
Speaker 4: Up hair only everything to the northeast. I mean, it's nuts.
Speaker 4: We've got ice, we've got uh wind, we've got snow,
Speaker 4: limited visibility, we've got everything from Charlotte towards the northeast,
Speaker 4: New York, Philadelphia d C Boston getting absolutely hammerd today.
Speaker 4: Some canceled flights, a lot of delayed flights. It's gonna
Speaker 4: be with us the entire day, hopefully better by tomorrow.
Speaker 4: But if you're flying tomorrow morning, some of the originating
Speaker 4: flights may not make it to where you need to be,
Speaker 4: So tomorrow morning slights are going to be impacted as well.
Speaker 4: So for the next twenty four to thirty six hours,
Speaker 4: this storm going through the Northeast is really gonna hammer
Speaker 4: operations across the country. So if you're headed towards the Northeast,
Speaker 4: just take an extra dissipation. It's gonna be a slow go.
Speaker 2: Jay Ratliff, I enjoy the conversation every week. I can't
Speaker 2: thank you know for spending time with my listeners and me.
Speaker 2: God bless you, sir and your better half. We'll talk
Speaker 2: next Thursday.
Speaker 4: Looking forward to it. In one of these days, Lord Willing,
Speaker 4: I'm anxious to join you on one of those luncheons
Speaker 4: when I can.
Speaker 5: It's it's hard for.
Speaker 4: Me with my training to do it, but believe me, brother,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna work hard to make that happen.
Speaker 2: I can't wait, and I'll just keep my fingers crossed.
Speaker 2: That day happen sooner rather than later, but anytime is
Speaker 2: a great time. Thank you brother. We'll talk again next
Speaker 2: Thursday eight fifty six. Folks, you didn't get a chance
Speaker 2: to listen down with the Neil Americans for Prosperity and
Speaker 2: the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. You can help out.
Speaker 2: We need that reinstated. Mark Meckler Convention of States sounds
Speaker 2: like a pretty good idea for me. And of course
Speaker 2: the conversation we just ended with Jay Ratliff. If I
Speaker 2: have Casey dot com, you try to heart meet God.
Speaker 2: Bless you Joe Strecker for producing the program. Folks, have
