DomPerignon:
Aircrafts are not designed to survive impacts.

They are made of light composite material with a light aluminium frame.

A Controlled Flight into Terrain or CFiT is what is referee to as a crash.

Majority of air accident crashes occurs during low level CFIT aka during landings because this is when the aircraft can crash on a surface.

Also the aircraft on final descent was still be operating on a relative high speed as all landings are a controlled stall .

Anyone please copy this reply above and every of DomPerignon's replies and fact check using your most reliable AI app (I recommend Grok). You will find out something.

DomPerignon:
The chain of events clearly showed that this was an avoidable accident if the crew had taken precautionary flight briefings and either suggested to the COAS to postpone or delay the flight.

Military pilots have a totally different orientation in operations from their civilian counterparts and are expected to carry out a mission no.matter the challenges

The 70s in the US marked the era of highest civilian air crashes and all were linked to pilot braggado with all these pilots being military trained veterans of the US air force, navy and Marines.

The US FAA had to review training of pilots henceforth to be more precautionary and safety bound than what it takes to be a military pilot.

The young and inexperienced crew of that ill fated flight were piloting a civilian twin turboprop aircraft and operating within civilian airspace control but being military officers, the trip that day was tested as a military exercise and mission to be accomplished.

How do you expect a young air force officer to tell a whole General of the Army that the mission can not go on due to bad weather?

Even if they had told the General would have insisted they continue the mission because even the General will not want to appear afraid of bad weather.

So make una rest.

Nah, that whole story is a myth that keeps getting repeated.

The 1970s were NOT the worst decade for US air crashes. The 1950s and early 1960s had far more fatal accidents (both in raw numbers and especially per flight). Safety was already getting better by the ’70s.

The big accidents of the ’70s (American 191, PSA 182, United 173, Eastern 401, etc.) were NOT caused by “cocky ex-military pilots braggado.” Most involved things like wind shear encounters nobody understood yet, poor CRM (junior crew afraid to speak up), ATC errors, or CFIT in bad weather.

Yes, a lot of airline pilots back then were ex-military (WWII/Korea/Vietnam vets), but the NTSB never identified “military bravado” as a systemic cause. The real problem was the old authoritarian “captain is God” cockpit culture that actually predated the military influx and affected civilian-trained pilots too.

The FAA and airlines didn’t “rein in reckless military pilots.” What actually happened was the birth of Crew Resource Management (CRM) starting in 1979–1980, which flattened hierarchy, encouraged co-pilots and flight engineers to speak up, and emphasized teamwork. Ironically, some of the earliest CRM ideas came from the Navy and NASA, not despite the military but with its help.

With proper CRM that is in place, a young officer can speak up to a "whole" General if and when the conditions of a flight become a safety risk.

Why the Gaza Flotilla Can't Just 'Drop Aid': Blockade Lessons from 2002 to Now.

Every time a flotilla horn sounds off Gaza’s coast, someone asks—why not just let them in? Why check every crate?
It’s not drama—it’s a math problem no one wants to address.

On January 14, 2002, the Karine A slipped out of Iran, Palestinian flag fluttering like nothing was wrong. Inside? Fifty tons of Katyusha rockets, RPGs, mortars, and grenades, all bound for Gaza. Yasser Arafat swore it was just paperwork, but Israeli commandos stormed it in the Red Sea, no shots fired, with proof dangling in crates. This was a total violation of the Oslo Accords, which promised peace between Palestinians and Israel. Peace wasn’t the plan—massacres were. That’s when the blockade started, not as punishment, but as security math: let one boat through unchecked, and you get Katyushas tomorrow.

On March 22, 2009, the Victory 5 sailed off Sudan’s coast, carrying sniper scopes and anti-tank gear for Islamic Jihad, headed for Gaza. Israel intercepted it, exposing yet another Iranian-backed arms run.

On November 4, 2009, the Francop—Cyprus-flagged, looking legal—sailed from Syria with another fifty tons of Iranian cargo: rockets for Hamas, smuggled right under the UN’s nose. Israel boarded it off Cyprus and seized the weapons.

The pattern’s clear: “aid” is code for armory. The Oslo Accords signed in 1993 between Israel and Palestinians promised bridges, not ladders to Israel’s windows. There’s no clause in peace talks for governing with Grad rockets aimed at Tel Aviv kindergartens. Arafat denied responsibility for Karine A at first, but later admitted his role—a blatant betrayal of Oslo’s peace commitments.

When Hamas seized Gaza in the 2007 coup, they doubled down. Their charter explicitly calls for Israel’s destruction, and every boat they chase is another step toward that goal.
So why scan every sack of rice at Ashdod port before delivering shipments to Gaza? Because “humanitarian” is the Trojan horse everyone ignores.

October 7, 2023, wasn’t a random storm—it was the pay off. Paragliders, RPGs, grenades, smuggled via tunnels, drones, boats, and backpacks followed the same playbook as Karine A, just louder.

If Israel waves through this flotilla because activists cry “aid,” next month it’s not flour—it’s drones with grenades.
The blockade isn’t spite; it’s a checkpoint between peace and cemetery rows.

Imagine if Oslo’s partners had built Palestinian economy instead of smuggling mortars. What if Palestinian Authority funds went to schools and infrastructure, not Katyusha missiles? Gaza wouldn’t be rubble. Israel wouldn’t be on edge. Palestinians could have had ports, jobs, passports—none of this rock-bottom misery. But security trumps sentiment: un-scanned ships equal massacres against civilians.
Let one flotilla through unchecked, and the cycle restarts.

The blockade isn’t war—it’s the lid keeping October 7 from becoming October every month.

Government of the people for the people by the people. Is it the people that asked for. This useless holiday to commemorate a failure of a president? Democracy is a sham, it is government of cronies by cronies for cronies disguised as the people.

The people don't want any holiday, but cronies of the ex president have declared it because they are now in government. Democracy yi Sha

Did the President consult with Nigerians before this decision? If democracy is government of the people for the people and by the people, who are the people? Did "the people" agree to this? Government is either a scam, democracy a hoax or the definition is deliberately deceitful or maybe we are just being lied to.

About $33 education grant. This is what we have become.

This is what we have become. Suddenly, "avoid crowded gatherings" makes sense. How do we avoid crowded gatherings? University students writing exams and waiting outside for exam to start should avoid crowded gatherings. Don't go to car parks and parties, don't queue at MTN or NIN office cos those are crowded places. JAMB students must not gather cos it will be a crowded gathering. Secondary school students at the gate or school assembly nko? Don't go to the market too. Don't wait at a crowded bus stop, go and stand alone in one corner.

So how exactly do we avoid crowded places when intelligence gathering has failed us as a nation? How the hell does "avoid crowded gatherings" begin to make sense even to the sayer?

Postinor:
look at the rubbish you are saying, how does fighting to end occupation in ones land terrorism,I am sure you are one of those senseless christains who are supporting israel because your bible said israel is god's army talking like history started October 7

I wish you can have this conversation without mentioning religion. Obviously you can't.

Out of your foolishness and warped projections, you're sure I am one of those senseless Christians who are supporting Israel... Blah blah blah. You don't even know me, but you're "sure". This is what internet has enabled. Small small children holding a mobile phone and projecting their assumptions on everyone. Mtchewww

Vehicles donated to the police in his personal capacity. Right?

So the question is, what does he do for a living? Can we look at the numbers? Can we open up his finances, financiers and investments? Can we look at the books and check his personal inflows?

The act is good. It's commendable out of context. But if we add context to it, it's questionable and the disturbing message it sends is "do whatever you like to make money, parley with govt, then make some positive public gestures and let everyone rest"

Postinor:
all sensible nigerians stand with palestinians and against occupation and oppression, the presidency stands with palestinians

It's stupid Nigerians and ignoramuses that are standing with Hamas in Palestine. Either they are doing it out of ignorance of what Hamas truly represents or just out of religious bigotry.

Whoever hasn't read the Hamas charter should just STFU. Also search Mosab Hassan Yousef the son of one of the Founders of Hamas, providing objective views and educating the world about Hamas and it's ideology. You don't know what Hamas represents.

The hunger and death of children is painful but Hamas is messing with your mind and using them as human shields. Sensible people are standing with Israel to kick Hamas out of Palestine so the Palestinians can have peace and save their dying children.

Go read the Hamas charter before you stand with them.

Don't be ridiculous. Find out what's really going on in Gaza and go read the Hamas charter to understand what Israel is fighting for and against. Does fighting Hamas represent all Muslims? Why has Egypt and the whole Arab world not opened their gates to refugees from Palestine? Dig deeper, go beyond shallow rhetorics.

Even the son of one of Hamas' founders Mosab Hassan Yousef, has been clearing the air on what Hamas represents both to the west and the Muslim world in general.

Follow Nelson Epega's spaces on Twitter where Isralies and Palestinians, Nigerians, Muslims, Christians etc debate what's really going on and learn the truth please.

See the list of people sponsoring terrorism in Nigeria. What has happened to them? I don't see Binance on the list.

Looks like those representing us in this matter are just a bunch of fools. Where is their proof that Binance sponsored terrorism? In which country? Which representative of Binance did? What dates? Which act of terrorism was sponsored by Binance.

In a situation where a staff or customer of CBN sponsors terrorism, is it even logical or correct to say CBN sponsored terrorism? Our lawmakers are saying "Binance" a registered company sponsored terrorism without details of when, where, and how.

So three weeks ago, a friend of mine introduced me to a platform in Nigeria where he was making money daily. At first I thought it was a scam and because I've lost money a number of times to platforms that promise heaven but put you through hell, I decided not to check it out.

After a week, he showed me his account balance and it convinced me to at least research. I had a 2 hour research, trying to verify it's not a scam platform. It turned out to be legitimate and since the entry fee is just N2000, I decided to give it a try.

It has been two weeks since I started earning 5-10k on this platform depending on how much time I spent. The most interesting part is that I simply have fun, play games, do a bit of common sense calculations and cash out.

I must say, greed is something I had to work on and today, I want to give anyone interested all the information I've gathered, my experience and my winning journey that has changed my finances since this year started.

Why am I doing this? What's in it for me? Well, honestly, showing you how and where to make money doesn't impact my own ability to make money from the platform. Moreover, I get more bonuses for doing that and finally, a community of people trying to make money together is far better and stronger than a single person.

So in order to build a community I've decided to open a Telegram group so that both new and experienced members of the platform can share ideas and make money together. Join my telegram group here t. me/make5kto10kdaily (see attached screenshot if you get an error) or simply scan the attached QR code below.

All details will be provided in the Telegram group and again all you need is 2k.

Men and women who have never ever masturbated before gather here. Beat your chest and identify yourself.

I used to masturbated but I've stopped, Oya, you sef gather for that other side. Let us count you.

I'm still trying to stop it Oya make una sef come this side. Why are you people so many like this nah?

I see many of you think Israelis are Christians fighting against Muslims (Hamas). If that's your thinking, you're wrong. Just know that. Christianity is not the religion of Jews, it's Judaism.

"The religious affiliation of the Israeli population as of 2022 was 73.6% Jewish, 18.1% Muslim, 1.9% Christian, and 1.6% Druze. The remaining 4.8% included faiths such as Samaritanism and Baháʼí, as well as "religiously unclassified""

What is the exact percentage polled in FCT by BAT? I know INEC says he polled above 25% which is actually the requirement of the law but my question is, who knows the exact percentage polled (which must be a number in percentage, greater than 24?)

Somebori epp me

When violent events are documented and the future generations choose to ban the entire book collection for recording violent events. Maybe only non violent events would be recorded. Any book that references war events, govt suppression, anything about Hitler, WWI, WW2, etc will have to go eventually. Can you imagine that?

The day I knew that many people are mad in this country or are having mental illness, Was the day I went to shop at Sahad stores here in Abuja.

I heard a music of Michael Jackson (Billy Jane) playing in my head., I didn't know when I started dancing and giving some break dance moves in public, upon my old age.

When I realized, I saw huge crowd of eyes steering at me, disgustingly. The kind of shame were Catch me that day..... I no go forget quick


An average Nigeria na craze person.

including you reading my story

Some of us are not average Nigerians so I guess we are exempted.

eteba:
My worry is, why is she still breathing?

Exactly. We live by laws that protect killers, even of innocent children. No be juju be that

IntelligentGoat:

That's why I always tell people family to always lock the door wether you are inside or not or going out later. Lock your door cuz madt people everywhere

There are instances of people locking door and an emergency erupts only for those locked inside to have no escape route.

The real way out is to keep ridding our society of these kind of people. If you kill anyone, you also get killed under the law whether it was out of sanity or insanity. Just kill all killers that have killed deliberately and reduce the total amount of walking lunatics.

Keep checking your partner's phone o, one day you will see what you're looking for. Very soon. It won't be long anymore.

Marry your friend it's only an advice if you don't want to take it you can marry anybody you wish

Olaideolayemi:
Married to a friend,attimes doesn't bring peaceful home,I preferred a woman,who understands what institution of marriage entails,and ready to work it out..

Then make such woman your friend before you commit to marriage. Head knowledge about what the institution entails is great but and being ready to work it out with you instead of other men out there requires a kind of friendship between you both

Wodu89:
Intimacy is deepend in marriage. Intimacy develops from seeing and interacting with the same person everyday

Friendship builds deeper from daily presence in one another's life's.. We can meet people in a day, marry them on the same day and have the best of marriages. In the end, it's not about friendships but the quality of individuals in the game


Enough of these popular cliches that are not entirely absolute

How many things are entirely absolute in life? There's rarely any. Everything has context. About marrying your friend, if you don't who else would you rather marry?

coputa:
All religion have their own God,the Chinese religion have their God as well, innovation and technological breakthrough cuts across races and different religion.

The greatest country in the universe is a Christian county but they still network with countries that practice other religion.

Other religion pray too, infact Muslims pray more than Christians,so, there's nothing wrong with prayers. Under development in Africa is not caused by religion or prayers but lack of common sense,

Sorry ó, which Christian country is the greatest country in the universe? I hope you won't say America cos last time I checked, the US is not a Christian country. Help my ignorance Pls, which country are you referring to?

Kingosytex:
That's the same thing that happens when an Igbo man is caught with drugs. Many will resort to insulting the whole tribe and by that gesture, also condemn those who've never done drugs or involved in any form of criminality.

They are stupid people bereft of insight and basic understanding. They should turn the whole world to their less than 100 million tribesmen since that's the only thing that can make them rest. They don't understand the importance of diversity, they are animals in human clothing. Imagine if all colours were white or all air nitrogen, or all cars Mercedes Benz that's how they want all tribes to be their own. They are not tolerant of anything that isn't what they identify with. Meanwhile all tribes have good and bad people, sensible and senseless ppl, Wise and foolish ppl, but they won't see that. If they don't bring tribe into their discussion and insult other tribes they can't rest. They don't know it's a sign of their own stupidity and lack of tolerance in a global world that cant survive without diversity.

Theres no key points anywhere

Tinubu simply went to London to be fixed by his Mechanics

Tinubu went on total overhauling they wan go drop Buffon engine and loose his anus and urine bag make them service am

Them never grind beans moi-moi don dey smell

Since y’all have sworn that Nigeria will never have a healthy president so be it

Una see Osibanjo carry this Quarter to Quench give us

Meanwhile why Tinubu no dey travel go US🤣🤣

Remove SS/SE from Nigeria and you’ll see that many politicians will tender their resignation letters bcuz their source of income has been cut off

They’re all interested in Oil money. Cut off SS/SE and you’ll see that the quest & hunger for presidency and political positions will die

Lagos kuku no get one drop of oil

Before you call me Anambra I’m from Rivers State

What a cursed nation

Lagos does not have one drop of oil? Really? You might want to check that again. Oil is in Lagos bro and exploration is ongoing.
