Captain Steeeve Reacts to Multiple TCAS Alerts at DCA – What Went Wrong?



TCAS - TA  -  Traffic Avoidance alerts.  


 Could of been a drone, flock of birds, transponder, etc.,  No 

Pilot ever saw anything with the TA alerts.  "Good job by all." 


Captain Steve! This channel is such a great antidote to the insanity going on right now (at least in the US). Thank you for the awesome, interesting, and heartwarming videos. Keep flyin' safe, my brother!


Im a controller. This has occured at my facility. They blamed on testing of a miscalibrated transmitter. Basically one on the ground was tx the wrong location. We can get ghost primary targets but they are usually related to some sort of interference with the radar like birds, vehicles on overpass etc. Im sure they were visually looking with binoculars too in tower. In relation to birds we would be changing our filters to a setting to be able to see that as well.

DOGE ends $18 million monthly contract for San Antonio non-profit



18 million a months - for empty beds while San Antonio
has homeless AMERICANS!! Disgusting.



Wasn't a non profit. It was money laundering.

The people in charge needs to repay the government within

Qantas Flight 72 Emergency: Top Gun Pilot Saves Plane. Airbus A 330 Computer Logic issues again.



Airbus 330's and other Airbus models have computer logic issues.


As a retired 25000 hour airline pilot , my recommended suggestion
is to easily be able to disarm these flight computers!
We need to revaluate how much Control computers have over our aircraft !


The captain, a former U.S. Navy top gun pilot, was spot on,
when he said that the flight crew must have the final say in what an
aircraft does. It cannot be theflight computers calling all the shots.
There must be an override feature built in to the aircraft flight control
systems, allowing the pilots to take control away from rogue computers. I know that Boeing has had its full share of troubles lately, but I am glad
that its flightcontrol systems, by and large, still put the pilots first, and the flight computers second. There is no substitute for a well trained flight crew.


Airbus has many problems with Computer Logic. Other Airbus planes with
similar problems.

Yall have a Blessed Day.

What's Harder - NAVY SEAL or SPECIAL FORCES Training?



As a former member of a 10th SFG ODA (late 60s) I always considered SEALs to be more physically fit. They were the brawn response, performing the arduous missions themselves. SF on the other hand needed more mental fitness to survive behind enemy lines and to teach others to succeed in the battle space. Still, when I got transferred to an infantry line unit, I was known for having the heaviest ruck and needing the least amount of sleep.


Navy Seals, Delta and Green Beret are the toughest by far.
