Speaker 1: It's time for iHeartMedia aviation. Next for Jay Ratt. Before
Speaker 1: we hear from Jay, though very quick thanks and props
Speaker 1: on the heels of Joe Montgomery from Patriots Landing and
Speaker 1: the announcement of the Patriots Landing whiskey. Props go to Borbinski.
Speaker 1: Burbinski is the manufacturer. It's a veteran owned bourbon distillery.
Speaker 1: Matt Carter Us Army, I guess uh founded it. And
Speaker 1: so it's veteran owned or veteran owned company for and
Speaker 1: distillery and veteran owned special whiskey made just for Patriots Landing,
Speaker 1: bottled by veterans and then for sale in very limited quantities.
Speaker 1: So another reason to get it out. And thanks to
Speaker 1: Bourbinski for all they do, and welcome back Jay rat If.
Speaker 1: I appreciate you give me a moment or two to
Speaker 1: put that in.
Speaker 4: There, to step aside for our veterans. Brother, you know
Speaker 4: I'll do that anytime of the day or a night.
Speaker 2: Absolutely I did not.
Speaker 4: I'm not a burb I'm not a bourbon drinker. But
Speaker 4: I was like, brother, go on, go on, go on,
Speaker 4: because I wish we could see more of that. And
Speaker 4: I often tell people my kids, grandkids, the only thing
Speaker 4: better today than it was when I was. Their age
Speaker 4: is our appreciation for veterans, and I couldn't be happier.
Speaker 1: I'm glad I didn't expect any resistance from you, of
Speaker 1: all people, Jay Ratlift. All right, So this first topic
Speaker 1: has me totally intrigued. And since I didn't look into
Speaker 1: it in advance, you're gonna be letting me and my
Speaker 1: listeners know for the first time the TSA has banned
Speaker 1: a specific type of cell phone. What's the story behind
Speaker 1: this one?
Speaker 4: Well, you and I've talked about repeatedly these lithium batteries
Speaker 4: and the phone repeating catching fire on an airplane, and
Speaker 4: how these lithium battery electronic devices are never ever to
Speaker 4: be placed in a piece of check luggage because if
Speaker 4: they catch on fire, we can't get to them, and
Speaker 4: that creates a big time problem. And if one of
Speaker 4: these phones gets stuck in a seat and they can't
Speaker 4: get to it. You know, I've talked about how they
Speaker 4: have an emergency landing quickly because if it catches on fire,
Speaker 4: there's no way to put that fire out if it's
Speaker 4: stuck into a seat. So it's a very serious matter.
Speaker 4: And just recently the US Department of Transportation in the
Speaker 4: FAA issued an emergency order that's banning a cell phone
Speaker 4: from flying. It's not allowed in check luggage obviously, ever,
Speaker 4: nor is it allowed to be carried on. If you
Speaker 4: show up at the TSA checkpoint with this kind of phone,
Speaker 4: they're going to take it from you, or you're gonna
Speaker 4: have to leave it behind or give it to somebody else.
Speaker 4: But it's the Samsung Galaxy Note seven, and the Samsung
Speaker 4: Galaxy Note seven came out twenty sixteen, so it's not
Speaker 4: like a super modern type of phone, but a lot
Speaker 4: of people still use it, and when they show up
Speaker 4: at the airport, they are un they are shocked that
Speaker 4: they're being told.
Speaker 2: You can go, that phone cannot.
Speaker 4: And it was the first time that the FAA has
Speaker 4: taken a position that says, you know what safety is safety,
Speaker 4: and if these things pose this kind of problem where
Speaker 4: they catch on fire more than other phone, we are
Speaker 4: not going to let them on board an airplane. I
Speaker 4: was shocked in a very good way that the FAA
Speaker 4: took this position, because it opens up the door for
Speaker 4: if there's other phones that are overheating to the point
Speaker 4: where it's happening frequently where flight attendants now also become firefighters.
Speaker 4: Something has to be done before we have a horrific access.
Speaker 4: So hats off to the FAA who actually did that. Now,
Speaker 4: airlines could have done this on their own, but they didn't.
Speaker 4: And the TSA, you know, is involved in all this
Speaker 4: as well. And Brat, I'm just glad to see it,
Speaker 4: because when you're talking about something that has the potential
Speaker 4: of catching on fire and it's okay, go ahead and
Speaker 4: bring it along with you, hopefully it won't happen. And
Speaker 4: the scariest part to me is when we have these
Speaker 4: devices and we put them in our luggage and at
Speaker 4: the gate they take our bag to check to our destination,
Speaker 4: you know, because the bins are full. Some people forget
Speaker 4: they've got those devices in those bags and they go
Speaker 4: straight from the gate to the plane. And so yeah, see,
Speaker 4: seeing the TSA do this and the FAA, I am
Speaker 4: very very pleased.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds like a step in the right direction
Speaker 1: from my standpoint. You know, of course I'm sure I
Speaker 1: ended up, though I feel for the people who have them.
Speaker 1: It's like I've been flying with this phone for the
Speaker 1: last several years. You're gonna tell me now, I'm not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the way it happens.
Speaker 4: We're trying to get the word out. So anybody that's
Speaker 4: lying or if you've been making fun of somebody over
Speaker 4: their twenty sixteen phone and it's a Samsung Galaxy Note seven,
Speaker 4: please please please let them know what they're in store
Speaker 4: for when they get to the airport, because the TSA
Speaker 4: is trying to get the word out. I'm really glad
Speaker 4: they are. And again this is probably just the first
Speaker 4: of several that we could see band as we move forward.
Speaker 1: More phones and the aviation topics coming up next with
Speaker 1: Jay Ratliff stick around. Be right back after these brief words.
Speaker 2: Fifty five KRC.
Speaker 1: Here's what's trending care CD talk station. I heard Medy
Speaker 1: Aviation next where Jay Ratliffe on the program. Always enjoy
Speaker 1: our conversation Jay and Dominic theme this morning apparently phone.
Speaker 1: So the TSA banning a specific type of phone, but
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what brand phone it might get stolen
Speaker 1: at the airport.
Speaker 4: Yes, well, well, in fact, there's an increasing number of
Speaker 4: phones that are are being reported as stolen per the TSA,
Speaker 4: and they're saying that it's it's easily preventable and what happens.
Speaker 4: Any of us who fly know that A lot of
Speaker 4: times if you put your all your belongings in the bind,
Speaker 4: it goes through this the X ray machine you're about
Speaker 4: to walk through, but the person in front of you gets,
Speaker 4: you know, buzzed or what they got to go through
Speaker 4: a few and you're just waiting. So your stuff's over
Speaker 4: on the other side waiting for you, and you're still
Speaker 4: waiting to get through the process so you can get
Speaker 4: to your belongings. And people that just put their phone
Speaker 4: out in the bin with all their other stuff where
Speaker 4: it's easily visible, those are the ones that are being
Speaker 4: snatched because people see them, they grab them. I mean,
Speaker 4: nobody's there checking to make sure your stuff is your stuff,
Speaker 4: and with all the moving parts, it's pretty eas for
Speaker 4: somebody if they are a thief to look at that
Speaker 4: and say, hey, I'll grab that phone. There's a lot
Speaker 4: of personal information on it. If I can act into it,
Speaker 4: get me into some financial stuff, So let me do it.
Speaker 4: So the Tiessa saying, just make it harder, put it
Speaker 4: in your bag before you put it in the bin,
Speaker 4: or put it in something just to hide it.
Speaker 1: Jay, Can I ask you a question, though, I don't
Speaker 1: know what your personal protocol is. But as I'm thinking
Speaker 1: you're telling this story, that's something that's kind of always
Speaker 1: loomed in the back of my head. I am not
Speaker 1: taking my eye off my box. It's got my wallet
Speaker 1: in it, it's got my phone in and it's got
Speaker 1: the keys I'm gonna need to get home in it.
Speaker 1: So I watched the thing through the whole process until
Speaker 1: it gets out of the ramp and I'm able to
Speaker 1: get my hands on it. So if someone tried to
Speaker 1: steal something out of my box, I would know right
Speaker 1: away and get over into his face.
Speaker 4: Or alert the authority so that somebody.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, But you know, there's sometimes there's.
Speaker 4: A lot of stuff going on, and you know, people
Speaker 4: that aren't used to flying scariflying kind of intimidated by flying,
Speaker 4: they go through this just oblivious because they're being told
Speaker 4: what to do, when to do, where to stand, where
Speaker 4: to go, where to walk, all that, and it's just
Speaker 4: a blur. So because of that, the confusion that that
Speaker 4: is that ensues at a security checkpoint and many times
Speaker 4: at a ticket counter, open up the possibility for people
Speaker 4: to do things that you know from a from a
Speaker 4: theft standpoint. And you know, when you've got four or
Speaker 4: five bins that are lined up over on the other
Speaker 4: side waiting for people to get to them, it's easy
Speaker 4: to lose track of which ben is yours, nice from
Speaker 4: it from a distance. So but it's surprising that we
Speaker 4: have a number of these, and you know, a lot
Speaker 4: of times the phone is the last thing that goes
Speaker 4: into that ben because it's the last thing that we're
Speaker 4: kind of clutching to, and a lot of times it's
Speaker 4: just laid in there, exposed for everybody to see. Itsa
Speaker 4: is asking us just do something to hide it get
Speaker 4: away so that we don't you know, nobody can be
Speaker 4: tempted to feel something that you know, sadly most people
Speaker 4: can't live without.
Speaker 2: There's some people.
Speaker 1: You think someone is enough money and ability to buy
Speaker 1: an airline ticket and fly to some destination, they wouldn't
Speaker 1: be inclined to steal something. It's like a crime of opportunity.
Speaker 1: It's laying there. I'll just grab it, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: Some people fly to steal okay, okay, we'll get the
Speaker 4: cheapest fairs they can to wherever, and they look for
Speaker 4: people that aren't paying attention to their stuff at a
Speaker 4: bar that's drinking, they got to the bathroom, leave stuff behind.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just and that's one of the reasons
Speaker 4: that if you're flying and you see something that just
Speaker 4: doesn't quite look right, please bring it up to the
Speaker 4: attention of someone. And most people are reluctant to do so,
Speaker 4: and I always say, please do because law enforcement is
Speaker 4: always indicated to me. Tell us what you see and
Speaker 4: we'll tell you if it's something that's of note or not.
Speaker 4: But don't ever hesitate because you know, yes, it could
Speaker 4: be fat, or it could be something of a security issues,
Speaker 4: a safety standpoint from terrorism. And you see unattended bags,
Speaker 4: or somebody doing something that doesn't look right, or somebody
Speaker 4: stealing from another person, by all means, please bring it
Speaker 4: to the attention of you know, the people that are
Speaker 4: in charge at the airport.
Speaker 1: All right, we're either gonna go really long in this segment,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go a little short. I'm gonna choose the
Speaker 1: latter option. We'll stop right now and bring you back
Speaker 1: to talk about the NTSB conclusion about the door plug
Speaker 1: problem on Alaska Airlines, plus the European Union doing what
Speaker 1: I think you think is the right thing un single
Speaker 1: pilot flights eight forty four. Right now, I'll be right
Speaker 1: back with.

Speaker 2: It'll be a muggy day.

Speaker 3: chuck ingram on fifty five krs the talk station.
Speaker 1: It is eight forty seven if you got KRC the
Speaker 1: talk station. One more with Jay Rale. I've always enjoy
Speaker 1: closing out the Thursdays or Friday eves on a positive
Speaker 1: note with Jay, and let's talk about the NTSB made
Speaker 1: some conclusions about the Alaska Airline door plug flight emergency.
Speaker 1: That's when the one with the door that blew off
Speaker 1: and I'm sure soiled a lot of shorts for people
Speaker 1: on the floor.
Speaker 4: What did they conclude, Well, you know we always talk
Speaker 4: about these National Transportation Safety Board reports will go eight
Speaker 4: or twelve months, and that's what it took place here
Speaker 4: because it was on January fifth of last year when
Speaker 4: that last Airline flight twelve eighty two had that door
Speaker 4: plug ripped from the cabin and that exposed the passengers
Speaker 4: and the crew to that rapid air depression of the cabin.
Speaker 4: And as you remember, that force was so intense it
Speaker 4: caused that secured lock cockpit door to fly open, so
Speaker 4: still a miracle that no passengers were killed. But the
Speaker 4: final NTSB report came out this week and they blasted
Speaker 4: Boeing for their lack of proper oversight and even blasted
Speaker 4: the FAA, which was a little bit uncommon for the
Speaker 4: National Transportation Safety Board, saying, look, the fa didn't do
Speaker 4: their job at making sure that Boeing was doing everything
Speaker 4: that they were supposed to be doing. Currently. Remember Boeing
Speaker 4: five years ago lied to everybody on the planet about
Speaker 4: a lot of things with the Boeing mat Back then,
Speaker 4: Boeing promised to do better, and the FA said, we'll
Speaker 4: do better, We'll keep a closer eye on Boeing, which
Speaker 4: obviously did not happen. And the NTSB report said that
Speaker 4: the flight crew were heroes, every single one of them
Speaker 4: that day, but added they never should have been because
Speaker 4: this never should have happened, and just blasted them. And
Speaker 4: of course, we hope Boeing has made the changes that
Speaker 4: they need to to make sure that things are I
Speaker 4: don't know, bolted in and all the you know, everything
Speaker 4: is secured from a hardware standpoint, but we just got
Speaker 4: to wait and see it. I'll know, in a few years,
Speaker 4: we all will Boeing has been good to their promises
Speaker 4: because five years ago I was an idiot and believed
Speaker 4: exactly what they said with all their paragraphs of promise
Speaker 4: on how they had learned their lesson and they were
Speaker 4: going to be better, and obviously they were worse now
Speaker 4: than they were back then. So hopefully things are going
Speaker 4: to try out for Boeing. We just don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, the only way we find out if they aren't
Speaker 1: is if we have another incident like this, right, Jay,
Speaker 1: I know it.
Speaker 4: And you know a lot of times when we have
Speaker 4: an incident, we get lucky and it doesn't involve a
Speaker 4: fatality or serious injury. And we got you talk about
Speaker 4: lucky twelve eighty two. This is a full flight and
Speaker 4: the seat that is next to this door, nobody's sitting in.
Speaker 4: And I mean most of the time, if you're in
Speaker 4: the middle seat, you'd be like, hey, I'm gonna go
Speaker 4: here and sit and kind of move around the things,
Speaker 4: and nobody did. And remember the blast was so much
Speaker 4: it ripped a shirt off of a teenager that was close.
Speaker 4: I mean just ripped it off. And you know, thank god,
Speaker 4: people are their seat belts on. You couldn't talk to
Speaker 4: the person next to you because it was so loud
Speaker 4: because of the air that was rushing out of that aircraft.
Speaker 1: And it's like taking a cork off a champagne bottle
Speaker 1: because of the pressurization of the cabin and then.
Speaker 4: Imagine something as big as the cabin doing that. That's
Speaker 4: just from a small bottle. And when you've got that
Speaker 4: happening with a uh, you know, a cabin area, that's something.
Speaker 4: Now remember Saturday Night Live, and I'm not a fan
Speaker 4: of SNL at all, they did a skit on this
Speaker 4: Brian that was absolutely spot on hilarious And if you
Speaker 4: ever look at YouTube on that the Saturday Night Live
Speaker 4: video that since nobody got hurt, I'm okay with it.
Speaker 4: If somebody got hurt, I'd have been very offended with it.
Speaker 4: But it was hilarious. They went after a last airlines.
Speaker 4: I'm surprised they were allowed to do it, but it was.
Speaker 4: It was something to watch and everything was factually kind
Speaker 4: of accurate. But you know, we learned from that. And
Speaker 4: of course, but remember last year, this happened January fifth,
Speaker 4: and it was a week before a week before that,
Speaker 4: Boeing came out with an advisory to all the Airlines
Speaker 4: saying on some of our Boweing Max aircraft, on the
Speaker 4: rudder control systems, We've had some mechanics around the world
Speaker 4: report that there were some missing bolts and nuts from
Speaker 4: the rudder control system, Brian. That's what allows the pilots
Speaker 4: to fly the airplane. So that was something that said, hey,
Speaker 4: we've got missing hardware on a very critical component on
Speaker 4: our Boeing Maac's airplane. Keep an eye out. Okay, I guess,
Speaker 4: I guess we're gonna, you know, as we're doing the maintenance,
Speaker 4: keep an eye out. So we had something that was
Speaker 4: totally unrelated a week later that blew off of an airplane.
Speaker 4: Why because things weren't secured. It just makes no sense.
Speaker 4: But if you believe some of the whistleblowers that Boeing
Speaker 4: was so in a hurry to push these airplanes through production,
Speaker 4: do you had people doing the job of two and
Speaker 4: three people. They were being rushed, constantly, being worked over time,
Speaker 4: and it was just a horrific work environment. You can
Speaker 4: see how some of this stuff might actually happen. So
Speaker 4: I hope Boeings learned their lesson, Brian, because just a scary,
Speaker 4: scary situation. It doesn't prevent me from flying Boeing. So
Speaker 4: please don't don't take that as me saying don't jump
Speaker 4: on a Boeing aircraft. But look, I'm counting on the
Speaker 4: FAA to do their job here and I hope this
Speaker 4: time they do.
Speaker 1: Mark Jay's words, European Union says, sing to pip pilot
Speaker 1: flights and not such a good idea.
Speaker 4: It was twenty twenty one you and I talked about
Speaker 4: how the European Union talked about, hey, maybe we should
Speaker 4: have a commission that looks into having a single pilot
Speaker 4: on the flight deck. And because look, airlines spend thirty
Speaker 4: five to forty percent of their bottom line total operating
Speaker 4: expense on you know, payroll, so you know, yeah, if
Speaker 4: we have one pilot, we can cut things out. And
Speaker 4: the technology is there, and of course I'm totally against
Speaker 4: that because I want two highly qualified individuals there so
Speaker 4: if one passes out or dies, which has happened, that
Speaker 4: we don't have to worry about. You know, we've got
Speaker 4: a redundant backup system. Well, finally the European unions come
Speaker 4: out and said, you know.
Speaker 2: What, maybe now is not the time.
Speaker 4: Thank god for that. They're saying that it's going to
Speaker 4: require redesign of the aircraft. Other things you have to
Speaker 4: be looked at and address, and at least for now,
Speaker 4: it's no longer going to be something that they're going
Speaker 4: to be pushing. So it's gone to the back burner.
Speaker 4: Snoopy dance time for me, because that was something I
Speaker 4: never wanted to say, because the next step after a
Speaker 4: single pilot aircraft is a no pilot aircraft that is
Speaker 4: totally automated, and I certainly don't want to go there either.
Speaker 1: Agree completely. I don't even want to get in this
Speaker 1: one of the self driving cars. Jay, I'm sorry, I
Speaker 1: just don't trust that the technology is there yet.
Speaker 2: Finally I can.
Speaker 4: Tell how passionate I am about those topics, brother, because
Speaker 4: I'm telling you I was screaming from the top of
Speaker 4: the of the mountains. No, please, Lord Lord. No.
Speaker 1: We share the same concerns, all right. Typically as we do,
Speaker 1: we'll end on hub delays. What's it look like out
Speaker 1: there for air travel to day.
Speaker 4: Jay, Minneapolis? I hope you're not going there because we've
Speaker 4: got another day of rain, wind, limited visibility is going
Speaker 4: to be a slow down there if you're flying connecting
Speaker 4: on Delta through Minneapolis. New York is going to give
Speaker 4: us some issues, and probably Boston by the end of
Speaker 4: the day, but I think those are going to be
Speaker 4: a little bit less than what we're seeing Minneapolis. Other
Speaker 4: than that, across the country should be a very very
Speaker 4: good day to fly, other than the late day pop
Speaker 4: up thunderstorms. And if you are flying, please remember to
Speaker 4: keep your seat belt fastened about your Turbulence is still
Speaker 4: out there, especially this time of year. Had an American
Speaker 4: Airlines flight last week. Five people taken to the hospital,
Speaker 4: so they hit turbulence. The people and most of them
Speaker 4: were the flight attendants. They were up serving at the time,
Speaker 4: so can't do anything about them, but we can do
Speaker 4: something about us when we're seated, So please keep those
Speaker 4: seat belts.
Speaker 1: Found sound advice from Jay ry Loff. Always a pleasure
