The original version of the article has two references to "Hendrickson" (the pilot who safely landed the plane) which should have been "Ford." I have corrected them. I apologize for the error.

The leaks keep pooling up around our feet............

Just wait until the lawsuits start. The fur is going to fly.

I had also read that FAA regulations prohibit pilots from flying if they've taken an unlicensed drug. EUA products are not licensed.

And the movie "Died Suddenly" just came out. When will everyone wake up?

Old friend of mine died of sudden heart failure a few days ago. He was 34 and vaccinated.

We all know what's happening. Like cats covering shit they've so soiled their reputations, offices and trust that to admit it now would open a Pandora's box of retribution world-wide that would be tantamount to the beheading of Marie Antoinette. So they deflect, accuse, belittle, censor, de-license and de-platform anyone brave enough to tell the Emperor that he has no clothes. Look at Lord Fauci today like a toothless old gnome repeating his worn-out alarm that anyone not up to date will die or infect their families. Amnesty? Sorry, best I can do is a new rope.

I have a private pilot license and am considering taking additional lessons in commercial aircraft, even if only on a simulator just in case.

If you're 97 years old, diabetic, COPD, struggling with renal failure and you get admitted to the hospital and test positive for covid and then die, you died of covid.

If you're 40 and just got vaccinated and then drop dead, it wasn't the vaccine.

A positive covid test followed by death means covid killed you. An mRNA vaccine followed by death means... uh, nothing to see here... move along.

Any message posted suggesting the vaccines might have killed you must be taken off of Twitter, FB, and YouTube immediately. Misinformation it is, most likely Russian or right wing Donald Trump supporters. Heil Fauci!!

Alex and others have been warning about cardiac arrest and strokes in the cockpit. I just did a Google search “American Airlines pilot dies”. Nothing on this story in the first 10 pages of searching. I stopped looking but Big Tech suppression of an important story.

So sad. My husband and I were on a AA flight back in Dec. 21 in Phoenix and before take off there were a line of 30+ AA employees standing in a row on the tarmac with yellow roses. Before takeoff the pilot explained they were escorting a pilot on our flight who recently died back home to TX along with his family. His wife spoke out on SM later that he did die from the vaccine.

Keep up the great work, Alex. Unfortunately, I'm no longer surprised by the lack of real journalism. You're reporting is desperately needed and much appreciated. I know you won't let up. Thank you!

If he wasn't vaxxed, they'll say so.

If he was...it'll be crickets.

Doesn't this make the vaccination status of all pilots and co-pilots of all airlines relevant? Don't passengers have a right to know that the pilot who is flying the airplane they are on could keel over and die because he or she was coerced into taking the vaccine? And shouldn't the FAA be adopting a rule prohibiting any flight unless either the pilot or the co-pilot is NOT vaccinated? How is a medically-compromised pilot any different than a mechanically compromised aircraft?

Alex THIS is why we subscribe to your substack. Not for your Twitter battles with Elon Musk, or bashing conservatives, or anything else. Amazing that the media hasn't touched this story - a pilot dying on a flight used to be a very newsworthy (and rare) occurrence. I've been saying it for a little while now - THE DAM IS ABOUT TO BREAK OPEN. no amount of covering up or disinterested media can overcome what anyone with half a brain can see with their own two eyes.

American Airlines should be required to release his vaccination status. HIPPA is designed to protect everyone on except the public.

And to think they want to eliminate co-pilots. Seriously. https://fortune.com/2022/11/21/airlines-pushing-one-pilot-in-cockpit-passenger-jets-instead-of-two/
