  1. It's amazing how much time, energy and money has to go into simply maintaining aircraft when they don't do anything, it's honestly surprising airlines like Ryanair are able to turn a profit
    2600
  2. Damn it's kinda sad how they fell, most other companies who fall fail to adapt but Pan Am literally were victim to circumstance, like the oil embargo, bomb and Congress
    1600
  3. Too long, didn't watch? Netflix happened
    75
  4. The turnover in ATC is really high so it baffles me how they always have staff on hand. Respect to these guys they do a vital job
    74
  5. And instead makes money from making his security detail rent rooms at his hotel on the weekends 😂
    59
  6. This is unfortunately going to be a big step backward for humanity, until we get a vaccine we'll be burning through money we don't have surviving

  7. Donating 2.5 million to charity in eight years wow thank you Obama
    33
  8. I swear every year all the food experts do complete 180s on their opinions
    32
  9. Lured? Those idiots knew exactly what they were doing. Orchestrating an unsanctioned coup of another sovereign state you don't het lured into doing that you participate in it and are just as guilty as the men you fought beside
    30
  10. Well what Trump did was morally wrong but I doubt he will be impeached because of it as politics seldom care about ethics
    23
  11. @Alex w I've read the report but all I've seen thus far is a money laundering scandal with no ties to Obama. Please state the website which you read the report from
    17
  12.  @sailbroker6244  did you even listen most of that was his 1.4 million nobel peace prize grant all of which he gave to charity
    13
  13. Germany: uhhhhh
    12
  14. The Supreme Court being a lifetime appointment was an abysmal decision, in terms of anti-corruption protections that's one of the worst things you can do because once a justice is appointed there's no big reason why he/she should give a damn about the consequences, which makes it far easier to buy them out
    12
  15. Evidence?
    10
  16.  @zoyaspencer8025  did you watch the video, he's literally saying it whilst being recorded
    9
  17. Shares, sales and store locations

  18.  @mannegar7650  A380

  19. No they are most certainly not worth it, moreover in reality they cost hundreds of millions of pounds per year, not 86 million. Security and estate renovations for example are completely comped by the taxpayer and are not included in the 86 million budget
    6
  20. Stock Market: exists r/wallstreetbets: and I took that personally
    6
  21. Hopefully this'll be good for the armed forces. They've gotten a lot better in the modern era in regards proper physical fitness
    5
  22. No they're not

  23.  @emilymiller5333  most people already had plans to travel and aren't going to cancel over a virus with only minimal infections
    4
  24. Someone's salty they weren't picked for flight training
    4
  25. I doubt that. Software can't replicate what ATC does
    3
  26. Seriously?
    3
  27. They're not coming back, not in any meaningful way anyway. Today fuel is more expensive, technology allows seemless communication from nearly anywhere on Earth, and with more people living in major urban areas noise pollution is more consequential. We just don't need it, as unromantic as it seems The RyanAir and EasyJet models are the way forward
    3
  28. Yes, largely because New York and London have multiple airports to spread the load where as Atlanta only has one international airport
    3
  29. Because they enjoy the taste....

  30.  @anguspontin7244  last august alone the government paid $185 000 in security when Trump took a holiday at the Trump National Golf Course in Bedminster. Since taking office in 2007 Trump has spent more than 150 days on Trump company property begging the question. How much is the government spending on him? The information was provided by www.usatoday.com and backed by several other sources
    3
  31.  @zooeykoll9137  yes and I support any and all attempts governments make to contain the virus, what I'm saying is it's unrealistic to expect people to put their lives on hold. Look at the progress that's already been made thanks to the response from people and governments alike. I understand the risk that travelling poses but given that governments are shutting down their border, airlines are shutting their routes and people are self isolating it seems like the risk has been greatly reduced
    3
  32. That is nonsense, the US already had existing tariffs on Mexico, Canada and the EU as well, it wasn't mentioned because it was a stabilised, relationship. Trump just came out swinging, trying to throw his meat on the table like we can't live on without it.
    3
  33. You sound jealous
    3
  34. No, O'Hare is the 6th busiest airport in the world
    3
  35.  @szargo8324  well busiest is determined by passenger traffic not aircraft numbers
    3
  36. Except for all that timber, steel and aluminium that's hiking up in prices. Homes, cars and machinery are about to become substantially more expensive to make
    2
  37.  @naturalimmunity7007  go back to your bridge troll
    2
  38. Depends on your bias
    2
  39. This is what it's like for first class. The people there want to served by the best i.e the best at their jobs and the best appearance
    2
  40. Seriously? These are asylum seekers who have applied at the border for asylum. They have literally done nothing illegal. If you say no so be it but don't lock them up in detention facilities
    2
  41. Unfortunately the finer details seem to be less and less studied these days, in favour of quippy sound bites. All of the surplus grain and high quality meat that the US produces for export is now in danger as retaliatory tariffs come into effect, which will hurt farmers immediately.
    2
  42. Do you really think any of this is classified
    2
  43.  @FosterFarmsOk  no, but fear isn't the point, do you fear the Russians for what they have done in Ukraine, or do you wish for them to be defeated. America need not be feared, as long as it is known for having a vast, determined and properly funded military
    2
  44.  @FosterFarmsOk  I understand your concern but it really doesn't matter. Fear does not compel other nations back down, it has the opposite effect, look at Israel, they have a vast professional army, mandatory national service, and are known to crack down hard on terrorism, but it didn't matter in the end. Being seen as a professional yet peacekeeping force is the best impression America can choose to give
    2
  45.  @thatkaveman99  Denver has about 2/3 the traffic movement that ATL has
    2
  46. 1:31 I'm sorry but that budget increase statistic continuing to "soar" is bullshit. Inflation from 2011 to 2017 amounts to 8.9% (11.9% if you include 2011) which shows that police spending only marginally increases over inflation
    2
  47. No it's not
    2
  48. That would literally never work, thse companies need millions every month just to maintain their aircraft let alone admin, fuel and tax costs of running them
    2
  49. No you don't
    2
  50. So some guy didn't follow the rules and thought they didnt apply to him. Lol
    2
  51. Who are you?
    2
  52.  @wolfblitzer1981  yes they inherited it along with thousands of other people across the world who inherited vast sums of money. Furthermore they increasing the amount of money brought into the economy via tourism and trades
    2
  53. The guy in charge is Native American, you blind or something?
    2
  54.  @emilymiller5333  let us all die? From a disease with a 3.4% mortality rate?
    2
  55.  @emilymiller5333  really? What does that at all have to do with coronovirus and no I'm not
    2
  56.  @emilymiller5333  still trying to change the subject eh beggining to think you don't have any points
    2
  57. Do you have evidence from credible sources to back that claim
    2
  58. Heathrow and Dubai is actually less busy
    2
  59. A lot of guys don't really apply for this position
    2
  60. So? France is bigger, has laxer border control and it's population greatly outweighs Britain. Also many questionnaires have revealed that one of the biggest reasons people visit the UK is to see Buckingham Palace
    2
  61. Really depends on your experience level, but on average ATC
    2
  62. That's a load of bullshit
    2
  63. It may be to avoid confusion seeing as Delta Airlines HQ is at that airport and everyone of their planes starts with "Delta..."
    2
  64. How will this save them? The US specialises in producing grain and meat, much of it is surplus that is exported overseas, these exports are now in danger due to retaliatory tariffs
    2
  65. Living for the other 3 weeks of the month
    2
  66. Ohhhh he's back
    2
  67. And the royals are paying them back through things like tourism
    2
  68.  @Mautiks  fancy way of saying you flunked the ASVAB
    2
  69.  @Mautiks  wow that's very impressive, after all crypto linguists are renowned for hating desk work huh
    2
  70.  @Mautiks  whatever helps you sleep at night
    2
  71. Shocking? Air travel has only continuously grown safer, what the FAA needs is ten qualified air traffic controllers not five excellent ones
    2
  72. It's just awful 😢
    2
  73. You guys have inheritance babies too you know why don't you start with them
    1
  74. He bailed a little too late
    1
  75.  @dag5852  it's a bot
    1
  76. Actually through tourism they earn the UK quite a lot
    1
  77. Aviation is one of the toughest businesses out there to turn a profit, there's no way they could keep am emergency fund that could keep them going for 6 months
    1
  78. A very interesting testimony session
    1
  79. Well they don't have any flight experiance and plus the pilots eat different meals so as to avoid the risk of food poisoning
    1
  80. Really? I have no problem spending 1 pound a year to keep that going. It's great for tourism, culture and international relations
    1
  81.  @johnlemon1977  well considering everyone already gets benefits even if they're unemployed I'm fine knowing that my one pound will go towards the royal family which will allow for millions to come in via tourism
    1
  82. And as such there are far greater issues to spend $25billion dollars on
    1
  83. Why?
    1
  84. They died because of the internet
    1
  85. Wait when did they start using "better facilities"
    1
  86. Yet you guys can't stop moaning about it wherever go
    1
  87.  @MarcPagan  ...just why? Why is this a problem for you? Nothing in this video is about gender discrimination or anything it's just the job. And yes showing more groups of people helps the military's image. If the military was just seen as a place for white guys we'd lose millions of potential applicants that could be good at the job, many exceptional. There's no point in segregating for the sake of statistics
    1
  88. What? He's not a government
    1
  89. Irrelevant fewer and fewer soldiers ever see combat, more than every you need competent mechanics, logistics support, engineers, doctors and pilots. You won't keep them by being a superficial asshole
    1
  90. People have lives you know, plans that they can't just put on hold less they lose thousands of dollars
    1
  91. this video gives a much better and more accurate explanation than you do
    1
  92.  @vernegibb7749  empty vessels make the most noise, that idiom suits you
    1
  93.  @vernegibb7749  I see you preach about facts but present absolutely none of your own. No sources, no data, no facts, just a claim and that's all you have
    1
  94.  @vernegibb7749  oh yes because brand, marketing, price and quality have absolutely nothing to do with the popularity of a product it's only insurance...
    1
  95. These guys weren't lured into anything. You don't get lured into orchestrating a coup and overthrowing another sovereign state. They went into another country and were prepared to kill to satisfy their objective so now unfortunately they're criminals
    1
  96.  @mauriciotye  well for one you wouldn't be able to express your opinion online had it not been for space exploration
    1
  97.  @mauriciotye  well your opinion certainly ain't helping anyone. But believe it or not yes, instant global communication helps a hell of a lot of people
    1
  98. .... a month ago?
    1
  99. Nah that shit was bloody
    1
  100.  @allthingsgood8265  no it doesn't. Producing and operating a gasoline car for the average 12 years is far more pollutant than producing a lithium-ion based electric car
    1
  101. Comments like that are why so many people hate the US
    1
  102. You're joking right?
    1
  103.  @elegantboss7546  Chhatrapati Shivaji Magaraj International Airport was in 2019 the 41st busiest airport in the world with a net traffic of 47 million people which isn't even half of what Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International pulled in that year
    1
  104.  @elegantboss7546  actually no as well, currently the busiest single runway airport in the world is Gatwick International
    1
  105. Short for gasoline, which is in fact a liquid
    1
  106.  @alfre3472  he's a shareholder not the owner
    1
  107. It does fit the definition though the border situation is a human rights issue
    1
  108.  Hal 9000  actually no there is very little room for profit in the airline industry. Most of all the big cash cow directors all go into busienss or finance but not aviation

  110. Lol you've got issues
    1
  111. You're wrong
    1
  112.  @ChristOMalley  the video literally showed how they cause great economic influx of upwards of a billion pounds
    1
  113. It's easy to say fake news when you're supporting the guy this con worked with
    1
  114. You mean he made clever business moves
    1
  115.  @arbeitmachtfries88  I've watched the military move away from their traditional bare bones fitness regime towards proper training in the past 30 years. Where it used to be just running they've now implemented proper crossfit. Pull ups, weights, intermittent training, these are all improvements over the basic run and push ups. Additionally nutrition has especially advanced throughout recent decades with soldiers being issued more balanced rations to better serve them. Soldiers are becoming stronger, faster and better especially with the the recent acknowledgments and treatments of PTSD helping the guys throughout and after their deployments
    1
  116. It's not this is just a poltical move to overrule congree who denied border wall funding. By creating a NE Trump can bypass congress and seize funding
    1
  117. People have died doing what?
    1
  118. Alright who bought this, because whoever did definitely didn't make his millions in smart investments
    1
  119.  @ivishnukn  1000 years... seriously. Britain wasn't even a country a thousand years ago
    1
  120. You could say the exact same thing for Trump
    1
  121. This move is straight out of the dictators playbook. Want to do something, congress won't allow it, create a fake emergency to overrule congress
    1
  122. Yeah because we've all seen how great Putin and Kim are to their people
    1
  123. They are being objective...
    1
  124. You could say the same for Trump
    1
  125. Where's Mexico's payment he said they would pay for it
    1
  126. Plants and trees aren't going hungry chris

  127. This video is about Harley not trump and his motivations

  128.  @wojakp4sh4j95  you're putting words in my mouth that I haven't even remotely said. If someone makes a claim I want evidence

  133. You know the Captain of the aircraft sits on the left

  134. Man I feel sorry for these farmers. They can't do anything with these potatoes cause no one wants them. Not NGOs, not government, not businesses and now all that food is going to waste
    1
  135. Wrong video

  136.  @TheShpmusic  no u
    1
  137.  @TheShpmusic  you mad bro
    1
  138.  @TheShpmusic  nah
    1
  139. Wait what you're saying if someone doesn't approve of a political candidate it's his fault if that candidate uses policy to bankrupt him?
    1
  140. No it's not
    1
  141.  @someguy5035  actually the students who finished at the bottom of their classes get benched, and do paperwork for years. There's simply too many people wanting to join the air force to seat everyone in an aircraft, so yes even cargo pilots are intelligent pupils and know what they're doing
    1
  142. Busiest is most often determined by passenger volume in which case yes ATL is the busiest airport in the world
    1
  143. Almost as much as the taxi drivers in the front lol
    1
  144. It's literally what you just said, the taxi way with the mark D
    1
  145. There aren't enough, ATC is very stressful and very few people do it
    1
  146.  @emilymiller5333  what?
    1
  147.  @fayl3512  take a look at the timestamp I made that comment over two weeks ago when there were less than 150,000 confirmed cases now there a million cases so obviously I want non essential travel to stop my point was don't expect people like me who had planned 8 months ago to GO HOME for the first time since I left after school to suddenly stop and stay in a situation where it would be difficult to even feed myself, now I'm home and tomorrow I will have completed my two weeks of self isolation with no problems Secondly no I did not downplay that virus look back I supported government shutdown attempts from the very beginning
    1
  148. Did you miss the midterms?
    1
  149.  @crabbyhayes1076  what financial support?
    1
  150. Congress denied Trump's 5.7billion dollar border wall application instead only allowing 1.4billion so Trump fabricated a national emergency to overrule congress and seize the rest of the funding
    1
  151. That couldn't be less true
    1
  152. Because that's what's it's like in first class. People want to be served by the best, i.e the best at their job and the best appearance
    1
  153. Why would you say that?
    1
  154. Why would they, she's a journalist not your personal narrator
    1
  155. Everything other than your opinion is propaganda to you
    1
  156.  @G-X-7  and when was this
    1
  157. The Mile High Club is reserved for people who have their own private jets
    1
  158. Link?
    1
  159. How?
    1
  160. How so?
    1
  161.  @Warrenmitchum  made Trump look crazy? How all it did was state what a national emergency is, what powers you get with it and who has done it in the past Which sentances did they write that would constitute propaganda
    1
  162. UAE culture
    1
  163. They're stating the facts it's your bias that thinks they portraying him in a negative light
    1
  164. Why would it be?
    1
  165. Which airline is that?
    1
  166. Uh target market is a real thing
    1
  167. Why?
    1
  168. Not really, they're far more durable than a gasoline engine in a flammable situation
    1
  169. It'd be a million times easier to diagnose Trump with dementia than that
    1
  170. I'm pretty sure Canada, Australia and the EU don't have slave labour

  171. You need a hobby

  172. Even better people have the opportunity to continue to make a living and create masks for themselves and the US populas
    1
  173.  @TheLiamster  who would have thought that of billions of people in the world two could have the same idea for a video a month apart
    1
  174. No they used it simply to remove as much bias as possible and keep their objectivity
    1
  175. Didn't expect to see you here
    1
  176. That's why we have trade. Mexico, with its tropical environment, is far more suited to growing tropical fruits and exporting it to the US, in exchange it imports a lot of excess grown in the US like grains as well as meat and machinery. Being completely self reliant is impossible, you have to take advantage of your own geographic and social surpluses and use that to trade with other nations for your deficiencies.
    1
  177. 🤦‍♂️
    1
  178. You've got issues man
    1
  179. Yup

  180. Have you seen his declining approval ratings Were you there in midterms
    1
  181. This video literally showed you how they do
    1
  182. In terms of passenger numbers no, in terms of flight movements yes
    1
  183. Then it's a good thing they have cameras to keep the likes of you away from them
    1
  184. And yet you continue to watch the video lol
    1
  185. Well a criminal cannot become president so...
    1
  186. If you guys think airlines are so profitable and that you're being ripped off I'd like to remind you that the air industry is the worst affected industry by the coronavirus and that flights are nowhere near as profitable as people think, wendover productions does a great breakdown on why flying is expensive https://youtu.be/6Oe8T3AvydU

  187. He did it too late, people who spread it to Europe would have spread it to people who then went back to the states
    1
  188. No it just so happens that the narrator is a woman why the hell should that even matter
    1
  189. You do, America exports trillions of dollars worth of goods every year, businessess are forced by Congress to either sell to American ownership or move their production facilities to the US. You already had a great trade relationship with your allies, and now Trump has thrown it in the bin to flex America's superpower status once more
    1
  190. What?
    1
  191. Actually it was. At the year of release this airport had the most passengers come through in the world
    1
  192. Different radio bandwidths are used. Radio corporations are only allowed to use bandwidths they own, military and government use other bandwidths that are not allowed to be used unauthorized personell

  197. It's 6 inches taller than the average woman so she's not wrong

  198. You're joking right? The rest of the world isn't operating with 1920s tech you know and the US sells it's technology to half its allies
    1
  199. I don't think you're qualified to tell off congresswomen for their competence seeing as you are... well nobody

  200.  @stevebennetts2112  you have a president that doesn't believe in Global Warming and you're calling her the nutjob

  201. Ignorance at it's finest

  202.  @neldawg593  if by Capitol you mean Caracus, Venezuela then yes. If you mean the Capitol in Washington then no

  203.  @rajZ772  if you think space exploration didn't drastically improve our technology, science, and standards of living here on earth you'd be solely mistaken
    1
  204.  @rajZ772  GPS, weather data, more effective diagnosis, prevention and treatment of radiation illnesses like skin cancer, instant communication, creation of heart pumps More simple things NASA has created which have improved human life include smoke detectors, thermometers, memory foam and enriched baby food
    1
  205.  @rajZ772  you can't isolate scientific discoveries and say they had nothing to do with each other. Trying to get to the moon and space is what lead to these discoveries, what lead to these improvements without the attempt they wouldn't have come to be
    1
  206.  @rajZ772  I gave you multiple benefits, you haven't addressed a single one of them, typical...
    1
  207.  @rajZ772  typical

  208.  @rajZ772  get back to me when you find a way to shoot your mouth off online without using satellite connection

  209.  @Mautiks  didn't catch the sarcasm there huh, surprising that a language wizard such as yourself would miss it Yes I was very impressed that the pencil pusher hating hardcore Marine is a crypto linguist that doesn't hate desk work, not an oxymoron at all It's a shame really, if you weren't lying from your very first comment you might have had a shred of credibility, you know that the USAF posts its demographics right? Seems like such an intelligent person like yourself should be capable of basic fact finding
    1
  210.  @Mautiks  of course you did 😉
    1

  212.  @szargo8324  just because that 0.0001% job is altered based on on aircraft numbers it doesn't change the facts of the matter and no salaries are not "based" on traffic counts that's blatantly false. They may be influenced by them but they are based on the FAA's budget for ATC

  213.  @szargo8324  I disagree with you on that. I believe influenced by them is a more accurate term but not based. Additionally this hardly relates to your original point. The fact remains that to 99.9999% of people the busiest airport means the ones with the highest foot traffic and that is for good reason. The airport with higher foot traffic will need more facilities, more gates, more shops more security checkpoints etc. ATC isn't the only ones affected by business it also affects the TSA and other airport personnel
