Safety briefings are a form of white supremacy.

They were started by the plantation owner, when he would ride around the fields and yell at the slaves not to cut their hands off with the knives or chopping tools that had and explain to them how much a healthy slave costs to replace them.

She had another warning...
"...one crew member had noticed that Edwards had nearly been knocked over by the plane’s exhaust and issued yet another warning for Edwards to give the engines a wide berth."
It pays to listen to warnings that God sends you.

This individual had a ‘no mofo chuck gonna tell me what to do’ expression and I suppose she found out the hard way that being stupid really does make life harder.

Working at an airport around jet engines is inherently dangerous and while she was verbally warned, it's hard to hear things at airports.

In the end... You need to be aware of what's going on around you. This poor lady was apparently oblivious to her immediate surroundings and paid the ultimate price.

The critical outstanding story for the industry is whether the rampers were under pressure to turn around this plane in minimum time and started cutting corners with safety procedures.

Here’s a detailed analysis of what happened from an actual airline pilot. There were several factors that lead to the aircraft running the engines while parked at the ramp rather than shutting down immediately and going to ground power or APU.

Those big bypass fan blades hit you on the head and you are instantly dead. I often wonder if the brain has time to register what's going on before you are dead. You have a few milliseconds between the time you are lifted off your feet until you are dead. Is that enough time to think "This is it. Goodbye cruel world. I love you Mom."?
Other tidbits from the article...
Before the plane arrived, ground crew members held a ten-minute safety meeting “to reiterate that the engines would remain running until ground power was connected,” according to the NTSB.

The ground crew was also informed that they should not approach the plane until the engines were turned down and the pilots turned off the rotating beacon light.

An American Eagle ground operations manual, released in July 2022, also states that the ground crew should never approach within 15 feet of the engine when running.

[...and this is very sad] Edwards is survived by her three children, her mother, and other family and friends, according to the Montgomery Advertiser.


They had a SAFETY MEETING right before the plane arrived. Maybe suicide by jet?
