Assuming it was self-inflicted, you've got to wonder what people may have been saying to him, either in person or on-line

More info about the system itself. Don't watch if you would prefer not to know how many things rely on the bleed air system.

"Oh, give us the long one."
That's what I said last night.

Clipboards.
The clipboards have almost ruined healthcare. I see they are now taking their "skills" to other industries.

I've seen this elsewhere. The company I worked for in Canada was set up by a bunch of former GE engineers, and was then subjected to the invasion of the zombie bean-counters. I ended up being told what to do by a "project manager" who appeared to be struggling to grow a moustache never mind a business, and had absolutely no idea what was involved in what the R&D team was doing.

Wasn't it Lee Iacocca who coined the term? I remember reading his book back in the day.

Who knows. She sounds sincere, but there's a part of me that thinks he would say that if he was thinking about suicide, too.

Today:
A United Airlines plane that departed Friday from San Francisco International Airport was missing an external panel when it landed at its destination in Medford, Oregon.
United released the following statement:
"This afternoon, United flight 433 landed safely at its scheduled destination at Rogue Valley International/Medford Airport. After the aircraft was parked at the gate, it was discovered to be missing an external panel. We’ll conduct a thorough examination of the plane and perform all the needed repairs before it returns to service. We’ll also conduct an investigation to better understand how this damage occurred."
United said the Boeing 737-800 had 139 passengers onboard the plane, with six crew members. The plane also did not declare an emergency while en route to Medford "as there was no indication of the damage during the flight," United said.

Heard on NPR today that he had told people if he ended up dead it will not be a suicide.
