russian war bloggers on telegram are very mad right now, but I suspect it's mostly because russia tried to do the exact same thing in the opening phase of the invasion (see Battle of Hostomel Airport) and failed miserably

A consequence of our new illegal war: cancelled Caribbean flights, with spillover effects on domestic travel. Sitting in an airport now because there is no pilot for our plane. Pilot was coming in from San Juan. Airlines scrambling to staff domestic flights.

had a friend visiting from japan and was about to leave for the airport when i went "oh you have to say bye to grayson" and grabbed the cat, stubbed my toe on the bed and broke it, fell to my knees with the cat still in my arms, and had to explain through tears that i could not drive to the airport
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

Our big look at why clickbait articles on accessibility at airports are ill-informed or wrong and, frankly, often tinged with racism.
The air industry has a duty to call this out, and admit it contributes to the perception by creating airport environments hostile to even minor mobility issues.

Although not to put too fine a point on it but even Just Cause had its own proto-Gothic Serpent with whatever the fuck the SEALs were trying to accomplish at the airport (besides getting dead)
folks no offense but the model here is absolutely Operation Just Cause, which had similar levels of the White House winking at it but sidestepping Congress to actually send troops, and running a kind of whatever media campaign, on the gamble that people wouldn't really care.

10/ "➡️ The landing on Hostomel [airport] was carried out without any paratrooper losses, even under far worse conditions, when Mi-8s over the "Kyiv Sea" were attacked with MANPADS like MLRS. The airfield was occupied, and the enemy fled after the firefight.
