nwa pilots nordo for 3 hours, not 45 minutes.

Just to clarify, it is spelled FAUX NEWS.

That should end any confusion.

I think the Fort Hood situation just knocked these guys out of the news for awhile...perhaps getting these guys out of the public eye will help their defense.

 

[kf4amu]

In character huh. Do you think that someone as serious as Bill O'Reilly would go for someone coming on his show and making fun of everything he says and stands for? I doubt it he got beat at his own game and pretty bad. Furthermore lets just say for the sake of argument that he was in character, that just shows how serious a news network Fox actually is if they have interviews with characters.

Yes, if you watched his show instead of the snippets and outtakes Keith Olbermann shows you, you'd know its not out of the ordinary for him to poke fun at himself. That's why he showed up on Colbert's show the same day this ran.

Hell I dont even watch Oreilly but once every week or two, and it was obvious it was an interview with the Colbert character...a conservative blowhard parody of Oreilly.

And Oreilly is not where anyone goes for news. Thats where they go for opinions. Don't confuse the 2.

nismo611,
I guess your a big msnbc fan? Hows that hope and change workin for ya!

No not really, I don't need one news network telling me what to think. As for hope and change, I believe it is better than Fox's fair and balanced. I also know the President won't even grant those clowns at Fox the time of day because according they are not even a credible news source.

Look if you are watching Fox news or any news station and buying into all the garbage they are feeding the public, you might want to step back and take a look at your ability to think for yourself. Screaming at people at crying about GWB not being in office anymore doesn't fix anything it just makes them look even crazier. Remember the current President is mopping up the messes from the past, and there was a huge 8 year mess left for him. You are pretty naive if you think that Obama's work isn't fixing GWB's mistakes.

Nice, but only people that don't waste brain cells on FAUX news might understand that one.

 

[ImbracableCrunk]

Hooray! Another Red v Blue highjack thread.

Remember the words of Gold Leader: Stay on target. Stay on target!

The article doesn't sound like the author knows exactly what NORDO is. Did he mean that NWA188 missed a call and got it later? And maybe he started the "NORDO Clock" there?

 

[Ex737Driver]

Actually, my comment on the crackpipe is a reference to people who watch FOX news and think it is actual news. It's like someone who uses crack and thinks that their own personal crazy thoughts are actually what's going on.
....................I prefer to find a source document before spouting off on a web board. It adds to your credibility.

Can your list your "credible sources" so the rest of us can join you on your high and mighty tower of truth that you seem to live in? Oh yeah. The internet. Now there's some "real" credible info. Oh wait. It's got to be Wolf Blitzer. Or maybe Chris Matthews. How about Rachel "carpet munching" Maddow. It's funny how you find the one news network that doesn't goose step with the rest of the media and riddicule them. Can your go off on another tanget and educate us all here about how the public option is a really good idea for this country? uke:

 

[olympus593]

F faux news!!!

 

[Bringupthebird]

Maybe we need a Satellite-based communication system so that there is not so many frequency changes. Or just get rid of voice altogether. We don't have traffic cops with whistles at every intersection.

 

[FishandFly]

Does it even matter that there are a few opinionated americans here or elsewhere who don't like fox news? Look at the ratings. Comparatively speaking, so few people watch the other junk shows that FNC does not need to be defended.

The only thing I am interested in is how these folks have managed to become so tainted in their perspective that they have reached the point that they think the propaganda stations like cnn,msnbc,abc,cbs,etc. are less than 100 percent left leaning.

 

[bizjet800]

Well, if it's true that Fox missed the facts by that much, well that's just wrong and they should set the record straight. No station, or anyone is correct 100% of the time. However, I like watching Fox news but I, unlike most, try to get both sides of the story and make my own conclusions.

 

[wmuflyguy]

I'm suprised they didn't blame it on Obama and Pelosi. Next up CNBC blaming it on Bush and Republican Congress for delaying NextGen.

 

[FlyinGuy]

Where is all the outrage about the wars on MSNBC and CNN. Oh I forgot, those credible news stations did not need to push the propaganda anymore because "HE" was elected.

Its only been 10 months.....democracy is a blunt sword and takes forever to facilitate change when people like you are around. Health care reform is inevitable along with changes in social security and medicare. As you can see all the tea bag folks are grey and old. Those old people have their Govt. run health care and want to keep the rest of the country from getting any of it. We spend 7700 dollars a person on health care which is 2 to 3 times what other rich countries spend. And what do we get 48th in longevity and 32nd in infant mortality.

 

[WayBack]

Get off the FOX crackpipe and get your information from a reputable source.

This is from the actual revocation of the captain's certificate. If I had a link I would post it, but I got the file emailed to me:

Ah yes, because everything you get in emails is the absolute truth. You better go and collect on your multi million dollar fortune that awaits you in Columbia.

Why are you so affraid of Fox News? Is it because they're the #1 ranked Cable News Network?

You seriously can't be that stupid. Or maybe you can be if you voted for the commie.

 

[nismo611]

Maybe you should be looking at who is stupid. Then again you probably voted for GWB. Imagine what this recession would have looked had he been there to help it along. I bet he would be on vacation clearing brush at the ranch for 80% of it.

If he did nothing, we would be better off than dumping billions into the banks and failing automakers. Sometimes doing nothing is better than trying to artificially stimulate the economy.

Hey I hate the banks just as much as anyone else, but had they gone under the Dollar would be worth less than the peso. Granted the job estimates were a bit optimistic but I am sure they are much better than if nothing had been done.

[waveflyer]

+1 for health care- and not some watered down compromise.
No- GWB and the republicans did not do 'nothing' - he did a lot of real things that will take a long time to recover from. Some of the most damaging were economic policies that you guys still think work.

Doesn't it make sense that Fox News is #1?
it's part of their business plan- closely aligned with republicans- discredit every source that isn't you. Right wing people- correlating with the military and religion- like being told forcibly what to think and feel- so they can circle-jerk in group think about how right they are, and how wrong everyone else is.
A liberal on the other hand is by definition open-minded and has a need tosee all sides, including the sides we disagree with. Therefore we have many news agencies and no 1 network will get our loyalty. We'll even visit Fox often and bolster their numbers.

But don't confuse the fact that bc conservatives tend to get their news from 1 source- and the corresponding ratings that go along with it- that you are in fact a majority. You're not.
And as time marches on- your power will slide all the more. Get off the extreme right- and you might have a shot-

 

[FishandFly]

Sorry I missed a whole page. I've been watching FN.

Hey waveflyer.. You said "a liberal on the other hand is by definition open minded"

I believe in John Chapter 3 verbatim, that guns are critical to personal defense and in defense of the government controlling the people, abortion is murder, homosexuality is wrong, the theory of evolution is a joke, the only global warming that exists,exists because of Al Gore's electric bill ($8k/mth and highest bill in all of TN), and that GWB is the primary reason we have mostly kept the terrorists from doing their duty on our soil.

How open minded are you toward my opinions?

A. That was a total flame bait
B. Everything mentioned above is only a very small part of a very large whole. Is it ok to believe in religion but not subscribe to every word in the bible? Guns have been critical to personal defense and defense of personal rights, but not always. Homosexuality may be a choice or it may be a genetic thing but oh well it exists and doesn't bother me and lots of other people. Evolution is scientifically proven, over and over again, sometimes science its a lot easier to prove than the bible. Al Gore is just one Democrat and he is not infallible, he is right about global warming, once again something that is scientifically proven, and he also is probably the busiest person in Tennessee. That does not justify his hypocrisy.
If you could sit down and prove anything to be 100% right you wouldn't be a pilot you would be some sort of GOD among men.

For the love of all that is holy. If you idiots had bothered to watch ALL of the report, Fox stated that whether it was 3 hours or 77 minutes, the info was inconclusive and that the investigation as it continues would bring about the TRUTH.

Nismo,
The point was not to argue individual issues. The irony of your self prescribed open-mindedness is that you are open-minded toward issues that I and many others view as wrong, so long as you don't allow the possibility of our being right.

I applaud your acknowledgments that guns are good and especially that Gore is an idiot, but I think that suggesting that most things can never be 100 percent right or wrong is crazy. Don't you think that there is a plethora of black and white issues in the world? Don't you think that if you view a particular issue as white and someone else views it as black, they are wrong?

Yes some things are black and white, that being said issues are rarely if ever black and white. Scientific things like evolution are pretty difficult to disprove other than saying that the bible says otherwise. There are still universities out there teaching that dinosaurs where put there by the devil 4000 years ago. Come on....... Liberty University that is ridiculous to brain wash students into this garbage.

 

[ttuite]

Are you guys all flying props? It doesn't take 3 hours to fly from CA to MN. I would be willing to bet that if they were 3 hours from TOC to contact that they would have been close to running out of fuel. Now the Bus does make a lot of noise when that is about to happen.

go on flightaware.com and look at the track log http://flightaware.com/live/flight/NWA188/history/20091021/2135Z/KSAN/KMSP/tracklog
they climbed to 370 at 7:17 and they descended at 9:17 thats only 2 hours so I would say 120 minutes maximum.
