No no. You should Google young Biden.

My missus does something similar with medication in blister packs. I sleep with one eye open.

They’re installed by Spirit who manufacture the airframes, which are then shipped to Seattle for assembly with the wings. No-one will have removed those bolts since manufacture. There no need to touch those bolts for the mechanics to open the door, so the airline opening it to install the WiFi seems like a red herring.

Oh shit it’s the casting mount, not the hinge retaining bolt. That’s 99% certain to be Boeing’s fault, not the airline. They’re going to try to say it was the airline because they opened the door to install the WiFi, but they wouldn’t have touched that bolt.

It’s a door plug, which means it’s meant to be replaced with an actual door if required, so a lot of the hardware for an actual door are in place. Doors are designed to slide in, then raise up so the stop pins engage the stop fittings from the inside, so the door is in effect bigger than the hole it’s in. this video provides a detailed explanation of how it works.

The big issue here is that the airplane is only 2 months old, it was delivered from Boeing in late October. Which means it’s either a design flaw or a process flaw in the original manufacturing. This smacks of corporate cost cutting again. Boeing are totally on the hook for this and it’s only lucky there were no lives lost. You watch, they’ll blame it on the airline initially but the fault will come back round to them again.

Yes, vaticanzo, that’s it

Edit: surely this should be the flag for Latin.

The pope speaks Vaticanian? Vaticanese? Vaticanglo?

God can you imagine Biden saying, “it’s not persecution you dumb fuck, it’s consequences for your actions!”

It took me a week to get rid of the song out of my head the last time someone brought it up!

It’s 2.90 in Tesco or SuperValu op, that’s centra screwing you over. 2.90 is still a lot for a 1.25l from the supermarket tho.
