The Lord could have prevented the accident. Clearly he has a warped sense of humor.

Oh, good grief. This TIGHAR scam just never ends. It's all complete bullshit, but they get people to fund them so they keep going. There is no way that Amelia and Fred were anywhere near that island. It's the complete opposite direction from where they were really flying. https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4580

I would expect transport pilots to have longer exposure to radiation at altitude than fighter pilots, so I don't understand why this cohort is the focus. Non-ionizing radiation doesn't cause cancer or, really, anything else. At the most it can warm them up slightly. The memo seems fishy.

What are your data for the assertion that fighter pilots "tend to have excessive testosterone levels"?

I love this article, but it's worth pointing out that this is NOT a consensus opinion. A fire in the batteries known to be in the cargo hold can also explain pretty much everything that happened. See https://skeptoid.com/episodes/4595

So American had weather and Delta didn't?

The batteries on my Tesla are air-cooled. Managing battery temperature is also handled by the car. The only real issue is weight, and they have apparently handled that.

I hope they aren't Lion about their safety record.

If the plane ran on biofuels the amount of CO2 coming out the tailpipe would be largely irrelevant. It would merely be expensive at that point.

Because carbon-neutral biofuels won't be available in 20 years.
