Haha, my area is feuding with the local PDs over police contracts so we haven't had regular police for over 3 years. They only respond if there's a chance they might get to shoot someone.

Imagine if Trump tired to hold a rally in Chicago with no municipal Chicago support? No Chicago police, no barricades, etc

It would be glorious and I want to see him try. As if he was breaking a blockade with him as the sole blockade runner, swamped by assailants on all sides as he and his protective detail tried to reach the tiny crowd out to support him.

Can someone explain to me how hurricane hunter aircraft don't just get swatted out of the sky? I know commercial aviation is ultra conservative when it comes to weather, but it amazes me that an airplane can physically survive inside something like that.

The city cops can't stand the mayor. And with all the recent pay and staffing issues, all the feds have to do is say they'll sign the OT slips and the entire department will probably show up.

I had to look it up, and apparently there has only been one hurricane hunter that's gone down on a mission. And it was in, like, the 1940s or something.

Knock on wood.

Yeah if I remember correctly it's not like the airframe can't handle the stresses, and those pilots p tend to be better trained than their contemporaries.

Mostly Harmless
An airplane doesn't really care how fast the air it's in is moving relative to the ground, other than during takeoff and landing. Turbulence is the main issue, and a combination of sturdy airframe and very experienced pilots helps with that.

Oh, and they're all completely loving insane. That helps too.

There are, however, instances like the plane that lost an engine in the eye of a storm (not, like, physically separated from the plane, just shut down) and had to spend a few hours flying tight circles inside the eye, waiting for a break to fly through since they couldn't get enough altitude to fly back out the way they normally would. Or something along those lines, it's been a while since I read that story.

I actually think one of the cases of a hurricane hunter planes losing an engine was due to flying into something that caused them to lose lift, I don't know what the gently caress you would call it though considering air doesn't really move downward in a hurricane.
