Last night coming across PA they had I-80 W closed because of a hazmat tanker wreck blocking the highway. Cutting around the detour on PA 144 I thought it was weird someone had a jet on their land. No runway. No airport. Then I realized the GPS satellite caught it in flight.

You know what seems strange today, the socialists and communists have taken control of the house and senate, yet I don’t see a single conservative or republican out there demonstrating, burning or looting. No riots. No losing our mind. We put our boots on and went back to work.
There’s no reason to place campaign signs in your yard. Just hang up the American flag and everyone will know you’re not a democrat. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Somebody put a bunch of Little Jesus’s on the brick ledge of the McDonald’s drive thru. So I guess you can say I found Jesus.

Im in Aerospace, just my perspective.. about todays plane crash in Florida.
Icing and moderate turbulence lead to a phenomenon called Mach tuck. It is common in Learjet 60’s and older Learjet’s. Essentially, you exceed the maximum airspeed at altitude and it is unrecoverable to the point that you continue to speed up while not being able to produce lift with your wings.
Further description: your coefficient of lift eventually moves too far behind the wing making it impossible to produce lift, this causes the aircraft to lose altitude like a falling dart, in turn gaining airspeed and crashing.
All Pilots are aware of this, some just push too close to the maximum speed threshold, and when you experience clear air turbulence or other factors like icing that would push you too far past the maximum speed threshold without the capability to control the wing normally, this happens.
Long story short...icing changes the shape of the wing critically and adds weight to plane (double whammy, but mainly airflow issue over the wing), Learjets are vulnerable to over speed situations because of the type of wing is small, sleek, and unforgiving in the name of efficiency and performance, mix all of that together with moderate turbulence which can fluctuate your airspeed, this causes the aircraft to enter Mach tuck over speed condition. The result is a lawn dart scenario that you see here. Very sad.
Had to fire up the old 8N and grab the blade and do some dirt work today. The load in the pasture came from under a church that was lost because of arsonists. No skulls. Really red dirt. Hope it wasn’t possessed.

GAWDDAMMIT🤬. Started off the week by falling outta the Shitty Luck tree and motherfuck if I haven’t managed to slam into every branch on the way down. Haven’t shit my pants yet but the week ain’t over so there is that. It’s a doom despair and agony on me Hee Haw week.
Good ol’ AC&T truckstop in Hagerstown MD for the win once again. Fried chicken, stewed ‘maters and scalloped taters. Perfect way to start the day.
