“Trump’s plane landed in Billings after a mechanical issue.”

Mechanical problems with his plane, and poisoning are the two top issues experts have said they’re most worried about.

If I were pres Trump, any time I was someplace other than Mar a Lago or his residence in NJ-like today-I’d bring my own bottled water, and not eat or drink anything brought to/prepared for me until at least one person on my SS detail ate a bite or two/took a drink off the plate(s) of whatever was served to me-let them be the food tasters, just to show my lack of trust in them where my safety was concerned. I’d make a performance of it, too-let them and everybody else know what I’m thinking-it would be fun to watch that, too...

Thanks. We’re not even to the height of fire season yet.

November can’t come fast enough this year...(multiple reasons)

I like how this douche is being ratio'd for for "rumors of a medical" and is too crunked to back off. Time to pile on and punch down. BRB

There are a lot of hydraulics on a 757.

I spent 40+ years in aircraft maintenance. Hydraulic lines rub against each other. B nuts back off. There are backups to get you down safely. I worked with a maintenance controller who took the UAL Sioux City call. That was a whole different story and he wasn’t right afterwards because he couldn’t help.

Billings, Montana to Bozeman, Montana 2 hr 4 min (143.7 mi) via I-90 W

About 12 minutes between the two at cruise speed of "Trump Force One" a 757. I would suspect the hydralic failure was severe, otherwise they would have continued on to Bozeman for landing and repairs. Another thought is perhaps Billings had facilities for repair that Bozeman does not. Billings has much more commercial flights than Bozeman and thus a more robust ground support for aircraft. I read nothing sinister into this event.

I sat on an aircraft at DFW due to a minor problem that took two hours to repair. If the captain does not want to fly it, I do not want him to fly it.

I forgot to add, neither pilot ate the fish. “Airplane” The funniest movie ever about aviation. When it came to humor they took no prisoners. White, Black (Lew Alcindor now Karim Jamar), gay, straight, etc. where subjected to extreme ridicule for the purpose of comedy. It was brilliant.

Today “Airplane nor Blazing Saddles”, Mel Brooks was a genius, could be produced due to political correctness. Oddly Blazing Saddles showed the insanity of racism as did Airplane. It would not be accepted today in the manner portrayed.

Political Correctness in film and the news media is actually censorship and telling the lies they know are lies because they have a political agenda that is not truth. Goebbels, Hitlers propaganda mouthpiece, knew this well.

Of course, if it was really the cause why wait (I remember as five tears) to issue the repair. How many more planes could have crashed due to the center fuel tank?

Sat in on a couple of NTSB seminars on that flight - determination was a fuel leak ignited by the engine exhaust.
