I don't care for the word 'luck' in the title of this thread, yeah, may be picking nits.
There are a lot of ops going on continuously, with the whole host of variables mixed in. Not necessarily related to the event of this thread, but the setup can be subtle, Mr Murphy is always lurking. Be safe out there. BWTHDIK.

Whether you blame Boeing, DEI, or whatever, these incidents are happening more frequently and are getting more severe (look at SWA at LGA). These aren’t all your run of the mill slippery taxiways full of snow and a tire goes into the crash kind of incident, they are definitely getting worse.
I am fearful that a major accident is lurking in the shadows. This can destroy an airline’s reputation and likely will cause them to exist in todays world. I cannot be the only guy who is thinking this, right?

Only a buffoon would blame DEI. Race or sex has nothing to do with any close calls recently.
