My car has side radar to let me know there is a car in my blind spots.

Maybe Boeing could use it..................

Cars have backup cameras. Maybe they could put wing tip cameras on planes.

It isn’t really a Boeing problem. It is bone-head pilots. But, Boeing might be able to make several thousand dollars off an appropriated car accessory.

Those guys told another story about a C-130 that came up from Honduras to Marietta for an upgrade. The pilot complained that the aircraft kept surging nose-up/nose-down throughout the entire flight. It was carrying a tanker fire truck that was loaded with water.

I hate jagoffs who purposely creep into your blind spots and then keep pace with you as if it is some sort of game, don’t you?
