Notice the silly twit thought capturing her own manufactured reaction (and her lovely Frenched nails) was more important than filming the burning engine.

Hillary would call it a right wing conspiracy.

I’m glad it happened before they got into the air where it could’ve been much worse.

Could it have been caused by "DEI" issues with the quality of maintenance personnel on the ground?

About 100 years ago, I was a young Company Commander at (then) Ft. Lewis headed to Yakima, WA for a meeting. I was lucky enough to score a trip on an Army ‘C-12’...saving me a 325 mile round trip.

The C-12 is an Army version of a King-Air executive plane that usually flew people way more senior to me around. I called my wife and told her I’d be home that night and got on the packed plane. I got out of the senior guys way and sat next to the crew chief.

As the pilots took her up and began the long circular ascent flight pattern over the Puget Sound red lights came on across the instrument panel indicating engine fire, The Crew Chief asked to wake the sleeping guys in the cabin and make sure they belted in. The port engine was indeed on fire.

We returned to the Airfield in good order, got chased and foamed by the crash trucks just like in the disaster movies. About an hour later, I walk through my front door and announce “I’m home” “You’re early...” “Yeah the plane broke...”

That night, the eleven o’clock news led with the story: “US Army plane in flames forced to land at Ft. Lewis” alongside terrible 1990’s phone video clips. My wife, a relatively new army wife was not amused.
