this is my shocked face that there is an article on delta net saying "nothing to see here"

c'mon man, you are better than that.

sometimes it’s true that the media narrative isn’t accurate, though. I’m sure you yourself have argued that in the past on occasion

This. Every news report claims they were on taxiway for 4 hours without any drinks or air. Yet, it doesn't take genius to find out they were blocked out for less than 2 hours.

It wasn't the UAL 777 in Hawaii but I remember a few years back an article about an airplane going on a steep dive before an emergency landing. I think it said something like "the airplane fell out of the sky at a rate of 4 thousand feet per minute". Like bro, the Airbus does that on managed descent at least once per trip lol. And that's when these articles lost any shred of credibility to me.

Yup. It's "screw the media, media always lies!! Can't trust the lamestream media!!" when it doesn't fit their narrative..except when it does.

Dude, you’ve been here long enough…it’s Trip.

Because any cabin air temp gauge is accurate on the 737. They never read 90 because they are worthless.

That’s full on spin. No different than the media.

The truth is in the middle.

I'm certainly no genius, but I am from Missouri, so show me where you found the block time for Flight 555. I'm sure its buried in iCrew somewhere. Just don't spend a whole lot of time with iCrew these days.

The McCarran cams show differently according to news reporting. Not sure who to believe here. Regardless 2 hours on the ramp with no cooling air in LAS in July is brutal
