Any of this reminiscent of a blast from the past know as ValuJet? At the current rate of incidents I give them 12-18 months before they have a fatal accident that results in the deaths of many people. Hopefully the FAA is watching and will take necessary steps to break the accident chain.

No I don't, I don't know anything about it. Just like the guy I was responding to doesn't know anything about this situation, or any other Allegiant operational activities.

Agreed, what was the company that loaded the cargo, Sabre Tech? IIRC they were found at fault. The accident just put ValueJet under the microscope and then things began to surface.
Back on topic, didn't Allegiant damn near kill 135 people a week ago rotating off the end of a 6500' runway with a calculated TO distance of something like 6525'?

The calculated TO distance wasn't 6525' for the record....

You didn't bring that up, just vague predictions. What other loss of life situations did you see? You should work for the FAA, they could shutdown operations of airlines that you think are going to crash.

Exactly.... Obviously these guys here pull things out of their butts without facts in hand. The runway was 6000 feet and they needed all of it +, clearly the ATOGS said 6025...
If you want a real discussion here, let's talk about complacency. It's not a problem specific to Allegiant and it will cause fatalities again.
