Every state has laws on its books that allow any business to BAN any single person from their establishment. The law very clearly states though that you MAY NOT BAN a group of individuals, say red heads. That is discrimination. These rules must be applied individually to a single person. Any restaurant owner can tell you that they can and infact do BAN individual customers from their business. Aggressive harassing vulgar behavior is one of those reasons that you may be banned for. As Delta is stating that they are concerned for all their passengers and flight crew, some people may never fly Delta again. You do not have a constitutional right to fly on a plane.

How do you know Trump has not allready given information like this to Putin? Once you understand the basic science, it is all forward from there.

I agree that this is an engineers dream to work on this. And the math needed to solve the issues is way beyond me! Materials scientists will love working on this problem.

It is not so much I do not trust the airworthiness of the plane. But I was offended by Boeings attitude towards the manufacture of that plane and how the plane was verified airworthy. It was a 120 million dollar plane with passenegers worth possibly even more. I have trouble trusting anything that Boeing says now. Did they make a deal with the FAA on this also?

Excellent!! I do not want to die with a tube down my throat trying to help me breathe.

At work I use x5 512 GB of ram, and even more is avaliable. We use this to plan your intra-op brain tumor surgery. And we also use this same technology in the OR. It works. Now a pilot understands the physics of fight and how to fly the plane. He is also aware of a tremendous amount ot data that is constantly updated for him if he wants to look. Much like in the OR where millions of pixels are utilized/changed in real time and can change every micro second so we do not suck out your speech center. But even working with extremely bright surgeons, who have incredibly instinctual insights, the computer is faster and more accurate. We have learned to trust it. Once worked out I would feel very comfortable to fly without a pilot. That computer system has access to more information at a micro second than any human ever understand, and can change its plans in a micro second if it needs to adapt. Can you process 4 different mathematical process at once? Getting information and uti

As a OR nurse we use these "systems" for many cases. This super clean HEPA filtered air comes down from the ceiling, directly over the patient. This is the cleanest air and we want that clean air to then move around the patient and then flow out of the room, sometimes by vents that are at floor level. If you want the air to flow upwards, that air will bring any contaminates that were on the floor up and over on to the patient. Same on a plane, bringing up that air brings all the floor stuff with it. And Level 4 bio-labs also work the same way. Ceiling to floor, then that air is frequently incinerated also to kill the virus and bugs in it. And in a Level 4 lab everyone is also wearing isolation suits and they do not share air either. And it is frequently incinerated also.

AF-1 flys to LKangley AFB in Hampton-Newport News Virginia. Now it flys to Virgnia to perform and practice full power and very steep climbs. It frequently flys over the James River. And you know what, when AF-1 flys over a boat with 100 touristson board it shuts them all up like nothing else. It is the MOST RECOGNIZABLE paint scheme/color. You can see the seal on the door. And it is IMPRESSIVE when it looks like it is 200 feet from you. That color scheme is a symbol of the United States of America. It is INSTANTLY recognizable all over the world. I vote keep it as it is. It is a proud symbol of America. And I have never seen a bunch of tourists shut up like that when it flys over them at full power and what looks like a 65% climb. It is a sight I will never forget. And it is the blue that sets it apart.

It is not that automation is bad, but the programmers are not doing a good job. Now with the advent of AI a plane could be flown without a crew. But the AI needs to be heuristic and learn all the time. And the AI needs to share those lessons with others so they can also learn. With the sky increasingly seeing more and more flights, which will continue to swell over time. An AI is the only thing out there that can keep planes separated safely taking into consideration local weather and other data. A human can not keep all that data separate. With the advent of new supersonic and possibly hypersonic planes, humans can not think and react fast enough to keep up. Only a AI can do this. With a plane flying Mach 9 can you as a human make the correct decision in time? But right now, the programmers/engineers really need to work much harder at making sure their software actually works. And Boeing failed.

Having watched AF 1 perform full power ultra steep climbs in Virginia over the James River I do not see those plans being all able to protect. They look like they perform an almost verticle climb. Well maybe 60 degree climb. Something only a Dreamliner can do these days.
