there are 18 uids here. wtf are (YOU) so concerned about?
I don’t know if it was a stroke of genius, or just the general good character of the Russians that apprehended those guys… but posting the videos of their immediate interrogation (i don’t give a shit they were roughed up and had their nuts shocked. Ya, can thank Dick Chaney for setting THAT new precedent)… posting the video immediately for ALL THE WORLD TO SEE…
It was noted the morning after in the video how effortlessly they responded to questions. Yes, they were high on adrenaline and in fear for their lives… but they WHERE strange in how fast and accurate they answered to the questions. I speculated brainwashing or whatever… but drugs could have made their brains work the odd way that they did.
I commend Russians (and Putin) for posting the videos immediately for all the world to see.
the harbor pilot is NOT like just an 'advisor'… the Harbor Pilot is to take complete charge of the vessel… because he/she/it is most knowledgeable about the waterway. the Harbor Pilot is a member of the harbor, not the boat. that is the whole point. it is the Harbor Pilots decision about tugboats (pilot shuttle is not the same thing)
(nature of Online debates, i know. but ya, this whole thing is confusing for people unfamiliar with maritime and aviation practices. ugh)
in an honest world, what you wrote is a fast and (mostly) accurate rundown of the hierarchy, traditionally. (idn't know about the Act of War by Maryland yet… but little will surprise meanon anymore)
we don't live in an honest world atm… thus all the confusion and bickering… and the Potato out there trying to pick up the tab with money that isn't his, and trying to buy votes with it or some other horseshit.
we are in a Shitbag System atm. that best explains the smell of shit everywhere.
Ukrainian Captain is an eyebrow raiser, no argument from meanon. but don't get hung up on the tugboats this or that just yet. it is a call by the Pilot if he/she/it wants. the conditions were calm and traffic was light in the middle of the night. shop's loss of power and thus 'control' (happenstance or sabotage), is vastly more 'impactful' so to say.
atm, im looking for more 'News' from NTSB that the recorders onboard were glitching too. so [They] say. ijdfk
lightn up Francis, or gfY then.
the current in the harbor was NOT overwhelming. relax. and btw, i WAS complementary of the sauce about the NTSB being wishywashy about the datalogging and lack of clear recordings. there was a time not so long ago, in aviation as well… when absence of clear recording, flight logs and data BECAME the cause for further and more intense investigation of the crew or operators of the craft. nowadays, Offiicialdumb says lack of records become their excuse to stop investigating.
light'n up
hehe… i didnt want to say anything. but she's cute. i wonder if she would like my Job Offer to come and clean house and cook food??? she would have to agree to not speak anymore to me about her $100,000 pieces of paper (maybe when not house cleaning and cooking for me, she could have a 'send me money for sexy pictures' side job to pay off her debts. Juss Spitball'n
nah, i wouldn't trust her to raise children with me,
juss say'n id consider offering her a job to clean house and cook. she could wear a cute little maid costume. i just wonder about the 'reeeeeee' when she reads my Job Offer. hehe.
