did you know that Orange County Choppers is still on the air with new episodes? But, it seems only in the UK
Orange County Choppers Originals – which aired in the U.S. on Discovery Channel, Discovery Turbo TV, Discovery+, and Discovery GO after launching in February – is the latest chapter in the motorbikes franchise that began in 2002 with American Chopper and is based around the Orange County Choppers custom bikes business.
A second season has been ordered, with 12 episodes.
The series shifts the focus to his workshop in Florida, where he reunites with some of the original team while introducing fresh talent. It also delves into his personal life, highlighting his charity work and passion for animal welfare and rescue on his hobby farm.Hearst’s Gray said: “Orange County Choppers has everything we look for in great factual entertainment: big builds, strong characters and plenty of heart. With Paul Sr. back at the centre of the story, we’re excited to bring this new chapter to UK audiences.”
following the same recipe of "Oh no! We're out of time!" "Oh no, we have a dead line!" this won't have a single new thing to bring to the show
so what was the reason the pilot tried to kill the co-pilot on the airline flight from the UAE to Israel? I'm guessing, it was to use the Boeing 737 to crash into Beiriut, like the muslims did to NYC (and Wash DC) on 9-11 - but was this a long term sleeper agent? Or recently converted extremist?
A pilot stabbed his co-pilot aboard a plane headed to Israel on Wednesday with 174 people on board
The pilot is an Omani citizen and is being interrogated to learn the motive. I bet the answered get tortured out of him in less than a week. I also predict, like the Washington Post reporter Jamal Khashoggi, who entered the Saudi consulate to obtain marriage/divorce paperwork and was ambushed, strangled, and dismembered by a 15-member team of Saudi operatives.... not that you'd forgotten
the co-pilot was able to reach the door and open it so he could be rescued, passengers rushed to help him, and he lived.
Passengers struggled to open the cockpit door, but what made it difficult was the pilot himself — he had been stabbed and was on the other side of the door
When passengers went into the cockpit they saw the pilot who had initiated the attack trying to crash the plane, he wasn’t sitting in the pilot seat, trying to stabilize the plane, he was trying to jam the equipment.
Israeli officials also praised the stabbed pilot, identified as Indian national Captain Smit Machchhar, for his actions in opening the cockpit door, allowing passengers and crew to rush in, secure the cockpit and prevent the plane from crashing.

This attempted murder prompted Israel to scramble jets in case it was not a singular isolated situation, and was instead one of many, like 9-11
Aviation experts were surprised the plane didn't crash because the extreme descent was so brutal that some of the rudder was destroyed, ripped off the tail.
Ray Dausman designed the engine for the Blue Flame which set the land speed record at Bonneville in 1970, and is cerrently serving as an adviser for Project Blackbird, to break the current land speed record.
Others working on Project Blackbird include Nathan Marks, who assisted with NASA’s Lucy mission whereby a spacecraft visited asteroids connected to Jupiter. Purdue University Aeronautics and Astronautics Professor Carson Slabaugh is also helping as are a number of Purdue students.
Project Blackbird aims to create a vehicle which would go at least 800 miles per hour. If successful, the project would also bring the land speed record back to the United States, with the current record of more than 763 miles per hour held by Great Britain in a vehicle driven by former British Royal Air Force pilot Andy Green.
The Blue Flame, with driver Gary Gabelich, went more than 622 miles per hour in Oct 1970
Dausman said a scale model of the vehicle should be completed soon, with it to be tested in a wind tunnel in Florida.
When the vehicle is actually constructed, it will be built in Lafayette. Plans are to test it at Alvord Desert in Oregon.

the Alliance For America's Skilled Trades, consisting of BlackRock, Carhartt, Ford Motor Company, and Google... welcomes 14 new members: AT&T, Barton Malow, Blackstone, Cintas Corporation, DEWALT, Dycom, The Hershey Company, ManpowerGroup, Meta, Microsoft, Milwaukee Tool, NVIDIA, Verizon and Waymo.
Employment of electricians, HVAC technicians and industrial machinery mechanics is projected to grow at twice, three times and five times the rate for all occupations, respectively
To help stakeholders build talent pipeline strategies in their communities, the Alliance also launched America’s Skilled Trades Dashboard, an interactive tool covering 124 skilled trades occupations in all 50 states with more than 5,000 state- and trade-specific profiles, offering new levels of insight in an easy-to-use, searchable interface. The state- and trade-level detail in this dashboard can help policymakers, workforce boards, colleges and local leaders target solutions where they are needed, rather than relying on a single national figure
demand for skilled trades workers outpaces supply: Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas.
I'll just guess and say that entry level pay is half what In and Out start at to flip burgers
