The TRANSGENDER trick that Putin used...Too much tranny stuff every day!
Musical Jets. When the engine stops, QUICKLY change your Jet and thus, your seat.
And of course it’s not remotely possible that he got away because no one was watching the airplanes and the Russians made this up from whole cloth to make themselves look brilliant.
Assad was probably planning on having his army fight in the Capital. He didn't expect them to collapse so quickly the way they did.
It was reported at the time that Assad’s (suspected) flight had disappeared from radar.
There must be something more to this story... As a long time, pilot who lives on an airport and owns two airplanes... turning off your transponder just makes your airplane easier to identify on a radar screen along with providing more precise altitude information. It is hardly a trick.
Sleight, not slight.
What really PISSES OFF the Neocons is that they didn’t get their dirty little hands on Assad. He’ll have a nice life in Russia, possibly going back to real profession, which is eye surgery, as opposed to trying to run a country flooded with terrorists.
What, were they going to shoot down his plane?

So Putin was flying the plane?
The plane (il-76) that “disappeared” didn’t just “disappear” — 3D tracking showed a descent right into the ground. I suspect it may have been a diversion.
LOL
We had a lot of folks here going with the speculative rumor that Assad had died in a crash...when we do that, we’re no better than those who sway public opinion via false “truths” to push an agenda - and keep the public ignorant of the facts.
Glad he escaped before the worse crowd took over.
How much of the $135B Assad took, did Putin “charge” to grant him and his family asylum?
