For those new to Bluesky, hi! I don't really know what I'm doing in life, but I have written articles about air accidents. This article is part one of five on the topic of how the TSB of Canada became the organization it is today.

For the last few months, I've been working on a story about January's crash near Washington, D.C. What I learned was that it was simply an accident waiting to happen.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Also, obligatory Cloudberg article on Arrow Air.
My latest article presents the sweeping story of Arrow Air flight 1285, a disaster whose muddled legacy is too often misinterpreted. If you thought you understood the deadliest crash on Canadian soil, think again: admiralcloudberg.medium.com/myths-men-an...

Also, obligatory Cloudberg article on Arrow Air.
40 years ago, the deadliest air accident on Canadian soil occurred. Lessons about ice should've been learned, but conspiracy theories led to these lessons not being learned fast enough to prevent Air Ontario 1363 from crashing due to ice. I wrote about this saga almost two years ago
A large amount of research and pent-up rage has culminated in this article: the detailed account of why the CASB no longer exists. Spoilers: it wasn't just the Arrow Air debacle.

This story has been 100% ignored by aviation media and I don't understand why. There are plenty of established industry publications that should have been asking for months what the heck happened with Alvin Brown and they have hardly said a word.

British public’s verdict is in: Die Hard is not a Christmas movie
Survey also reveals Britons’ favourite festive film, views on tear-jerkers and family cinema trips
When Macaulay Culkin recently said he didn’t consider Die Hard to be a Christmas film – wading into one of pop culture’s most heated holiday debates – he was booed by a live audience.
But it looks like the British people are behind the actor, with a survey revealing that Home Alone is the UK’s favourite festive film, while Die Hard has officially been voted not a Christmas movie. Continue reading...
