PAP shooting
When is enough going to be enough? I'm sick of hearing Blue Watch say it's fine when it just isn't. That flight attendant was inches from getting their head blown off. It could just as easily been a one of us. I'm pretty sure these shootings have been coming from the same area, and we need to at the very least stop flying approaches/departures over that area. If the winds don't support that then we don't go. Either that or we get Kevlar floor liners, flack jackets and helmets.

is it true a JBU aircraft was found with a bullet hole as well?

Yeah, they do this every time. They suspend service, then wait a month and start it back up again after things have "cooled down".

As pointed out this doesn't seem like the first time.......how as the PIC can we really say the flight can be conducted safely. |
