There is no one international law, to the knowledge of many, that says a host country has to reach into their own pockets and safely transport, not just 2 or 3, but several hundred illegal immigrants safely to a place anywhere near what they call their original homeland.
In general, there ordinarily may be expectations for host deporting nations when deporting, to do so in a reasonably stable manner.

There are several factors that involve risk when deporting individuals. In the scope of deporting from the US:
The first is safety. In a time when strange airplane happenings have been occurring around the globe, including crash landings, and planes literally upside down on the runway, as was seen in Canada just hours ago, it can actually be somewhat of a burden for a host nation to even start the process of flying deportees, even to just a few minutes next door.

A second factor is cost. The cost of the service of pilots flying the airplanes, the manpower, the cost of the plane, the cost of the fuel to fly the planes, those figures add up. Often at the end of the day, planes flying deportees are at the expense of US tax payers' dollars.

There is another safety factor, and that is the recipient location of the deportees. Are the airports safe?, can they accommodate the flights?, what are all the security logistics? and many more questions like these may exist in the process.
Dust storms, limited visibility, airport canopies collapsing, and other advents, can endanger the lives of hundreds at a time in a matter of seconds.

There are a lot of logistics in just getting illegal immigrants onto the airplane to deport them.
The transportation to the plane. Making sure everyone has had a reasonable amount of food. The costs involved with the courts, again at the expense of taxpayers dollars.

The rationale of going about deporting as though there are slim pickings has a wisdom.

Picture this, transport every illegal immigrant to the airport in a new Rolls Royce, then give them a luxury seat on a Concorde jet, dropping them off to their hometown, then limo each deportee to the doorstep they left from, after feeding them with 3 full meals for each day purchased from a fancy restaurant. A little far-fetched and a little expensive? You can see where funding and time expenditure starts to add up.

It is almost mind-boggling the amount of illegal immigrants in the US, nevermind the number being deported.

Illegal immigrants could be forced to pay, and put the burden of costs on others, in not as nice or graciously hosted circumstances.

There is a sense of urgency especially after a number of attacks conducted by illegal immigrants occurred, to address the problem of the presence of illegal immigrants. Perhaps if certain incidents did not happen, then deportations may have had a softer unfolding; but for right now, the deportations is about as soft as can be, given the sheer amount of effort that has gone into making sure hundreds or thousands of individuals from a range of ages and origins, are reasonably taken care of, with an amount of respect given to them in the process.

Questions recently started to arise in the past several days, such as why are deportation planes arriving in Amritsar? A location just south of Jammu and Kashmir toward the top of the diamond of northern India, just east of the border with Pakistan. The region can be called today 'the Punjab'. But hey, 'the Punjab' boundaries, geographically especially, have changed over the years. Aspects of what the Punjab was known for has changed over the decades and centuries. Today, the steep culture and value systems that Punjabis used to uphold just 50 years ago, may be further removed from what can be described as popularly known and understood. This whole thing about, there might be an ulterior motive for the destination of deportees to Amritsar Airport such as possibly to dampen the reputation of Punjabis, is about tenuous even for thoughts about the subject back in the Punjab. Only a few learned persons with erudition and scholars, are possibly going to differentiate the Punjab from other parts of India in the dimensions such as, what cultures are inclined to do what than what, and what are the values. (Example, fine lines of sufi practices in perhaps ideals in the region, in areas of thought, while studying thought of scholar tiers in Hindu systems; even very knowledgeable individuals from the region will tell you there is a lot of information to get command of.) There are some statistics involved in this week's picture of deportations, such as an amount of persons from the Punjab (deported), an amount reflected from those from Haryana just south of there, a few from Gujarat, and so on. Ok, some deportees might have a few hours travel time ahead of them if they wish to go all the way back home, if that actually really be their precise home; and there might be some interior tensions within India, referring to aspects bureaucratic, upon discussing selection of Punjab amidst other stirrings involving the Punjab.

Our American pilots mission includes landing huge airplanes safely; their safety, and the deportees safety a priority. Making it to the nearest airport, which the reports are is the primary factor, is sound.
There is a lot of work involved in the deportation business, and a lot more work to do. Getting hung up on choice of airport a hundred miles from one to the next, the math and logistics in the nature of climate challenges in flights, just do not leave room for it. Surely the US does not have a want to diminish allegiances and diplomatic ties. In the work that lay ahead, flights are slated in the very near future to locations like Costa Rica and Panama.


There may be a degree of gratitude deserved, that the deportees got as close as they did to their homes in the manner that they did.

Developing story.
Large first responder presence is on the scene.
Large may go a long way, however, exact tools to successfully rescue is critical.

So far, a statement generated: FAA statement: "A PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 regional jet collided in midair with a Sikorsky H-60 helicopter while on approach to Runway 33 at Reagan Washington National Airport around 9 p.m. local [Eastern] time. PSA was operating Flight 5342 as American Airlines. It departed from Wichita, Kansas."

The helicopter might be Army.

This post might be updated.

Updates/comments as they come in will go below this line:
It appears the helicopter flew into the airplane at almost an exact 90% horizontal trajectory, based on available footage seen so far. 
It also appears there were at least 2 pieces of post aircraft collision craft parts that fell into the water; it might be hard to tell at this point before magnified analyses, which parts belonged to which aircraft; which I'm certain there will be plenty of that analyses soon. Force of collision might affect definitive what was what.

Good morning congratulations, seeing now 2025.
As much as there is the want to start the new year off with a happy, sunny story, the stirrings that are around active, and maybe even growing, are overwhelming, and have to be addressed if 2025 and beyond is going to be a time we can look forward to with less misfortunes.

The following are several stories that are expounded on, there are numerous stories around the Country, each one takes hours of immersement.

Reports: Man pushes middle aged man from behind onto New York City train tracks, Manhattan area.

Why can't enough be enough?

Enough hiding the principles- when belligerency of belligerent behavior continues after a big effort on crackdown, it is a sign of the 'rejected one' present and trying to persist.
Obviously some of this information is figurative and has certain applications. For example, rejected one, could be plural in the individuals, individual behaviors or activities, that when combined together form an objectionable development.

Last year was closed out with the identification of the woman that was set on fire by a person identified as an early 30s illegal immigrant male. HCN covered what we knew about the story then, on HCN Cache, the blog.

What has been learned is that a woman with perhaps a notable ancestry had some challenges, that happens to many, many families over time, not excluded military children who may not have had all the amenities available construed on television sitcoms; logic might indicate that the victim was somewhat vulnerable to assault and affects of; vulnerabilities already existed in that the victim was in an area of train system somewhat removed from the bulk of more densely active areas. It has been learned there were 'time phases' involved in the incident; such as the time it took for responders to recognize an incident occurred, the time it took for the suspect to commit the crime, to travel to a nearby destination, and to be caught. The mechanics of how the train incident developed, is being looked at with very sharp and scrutinizing eyes. It has to be the last time anything of the sort could conceivably happen.

Right. Right? Riiight... how ever many times and ways of saying it might continue.

Several to over seven hours before the midnight 2024 to 2025 whistle, came another incident, a man minding focus on a hand held device, perhaps a cell phone, is suddenly pushed by a guy in a hooded sweatshirt that does a walk past then zig back number. There were onlookers. A suspect was caught.

A suspect was caught on the woman set alight case a few weeks before.

So even though the crackdown on NY train violence begun, and was talked about, another incident occured.

Now what?

Reduction of train station/system violence
Here are some ideas:

• More safety gates or ropes on train platforms. No one is to go past the safety gates until the upcoming train stops.
• Fire extinguishing equipment increase. Sprinkler system advanced design, does not necessarily have to be water.
• Increase no loitering.
• Observe time stamps on train tickets from time of entry into train system. Doable at low cost now with time tracers embedded in the ticket. Illustrating, if a person enters a station with a ticket at 12pm to go on a destination that takes 15 minutes, if they are still in the train system 9 hours later, (riding around and around, resting in parked trains, napping at different restaurant booths, etc.,) authorities should be able to more quickly ascertain the patron, approach, and stat asking questions.
• Reduction in loitering can be for the benefit of all train patrons, as individuals who may tend to push the limits of loitering, such as those financially challenged, especially when temperatures are bitter cold, could become targets of predation.
• Reducing the mind frame among train patrons, that the train system is a society or jungle to where crimes of violence are bound to happen, and a game of death or severe injury is what train goers are getting into.

This is not limited to just NYC trains, or DC's WMATA, it is train systems all over, where applicable or deficient.


South Korea had a bad flight disaster in the past few days. Jeju; over 170 reported passing, only 2 survivors.
Friction in large passenger airplanes is a serious matter. Planes are travelling very fast, and weigh a lot. Simple math, if a large plane skids on its belly, it could spell out disaster, even without a drop of fuel in the pane, (referring to a flammable aspect).
Typically, large planes take a lot of fuel. Obviously, the more fuel at the time of fuel igniting, generally, the more intense a fire. A skid could have so much friction, fire involved is bound; in combination with amounts of fuel, the results could be disastrous.

The same day the train incident was discussed, the Azerbaijani airplane crash in Kazakhstan was discussed in the international section of HCN main site. We said there was obviously some miracle, mercy shown in that crash. There was an explosion, however, there was a strong proportion of survivors.

Looking at both crashes, what is seen is the a major difference between a belly skid and a non-belly skid, is an apparatus between the ground and the belly of the airplane.

Again, that is enough.

This 2025, and people on this earth are still witnessing incidents that happened 50 to 100 years ago. People pushing people onto train tracks. Airplanes skidding.

Airplane landing friction reduction, accident reduction
Ideas:

• Increase functioning check of airplane wheel apparatus. If the switch is flipped and the wheels do not come out, that airplane does not need to be flying until they do.
• A backup plan for wheels that fail. For example,
• a second set of airplane wheels.
• More wheels placed in different areas of the plane in case of awkward landings.
• Resilient materials used.
• Non-flammable, or minimal flammable, structures used.
• Rocker rails made of special material on the bottom of planes.
• Chemical alteration of flammable fuel to render as non-flammable if a turbulent crash seems imminent.
• Landing wheels to be extended earlier in flight, if the wheels do not come out, plane is not to land, as doable.

The third area covered is safety issues involved with the overarching band of described as, transportation and delivery service, and rideshare.
Kissimmee, Florida, that area south of Orlando, had a incident recently, several days ago, where a woman was stabbed a count of '14 times over a $2 tip'. Pizza delivery. Female deliverer shows back up at the site of initial delivery with a man, they force their way in, that man is being sought by law enforcement. The entirety echoes human trafficking and threats using coercion and violence. When folkways start setting in that are misguided ways.
Aside from fairy tales of what generation is destined to do what and what part of heaven or hell they go, that incident and others like it is absolutely ridiculous.

There are far too many stories going around with rideshare company drivers assaulting riders, riders assaulting drivers, and deliveries gone the wrong way, food deliverers assaulting customers, customers assaulting food deliverers.


Americans abroad attacked
That occurrence needs a halt.
Durango, Mexico was the recent site of 4 individuals, 2 of whom were Americans shot in their vehicle, 1 survivor in critical condition.
The frequency of incidents like this one has become another source of morality affecting population.
Are bodycams going to be worn on every American tourist that travels abroad; optional?, increase of emergency real-time command centers for international travelers?

Things are getting to the point, or have, where if body cams are not worn by drivers, and footage can be seen in real time, then no deal.

Trust. Trust has been breached too often.

Those vulnerable, have had their vulnerability taken advantage of, where trust has been broken.


Hopes to a good 2025 and beyond.

Wings that see over us at levels many might not get to see in this world's life, of course might have the impact of it not being here the way it was.
As a centenarian, he gained many accolades for just that, in combination for what he brought us. 
Just a short time ago, December 29, 2025.

As Friday winds down, the issue of whether to abolish debt ceilings, or raise it at very careful incremental amounts has Capitol Hill stirring.

There are certain common sense/ grand vision factors, involved, in strategizing just what is or are the best move or moves, when it comes to limits. Of course, some top political and financial influencers know these. Some of it is put into easy to understand words, summarized.

Picture this, the debt ceiling is abolished, and spending occurs lavishly, such as through a dramatic move, maybe to pay for an advent like a covid-type epidemic relief, an international conflict (well there is a tension about Ukraine and Russia, where Ukraine keeps getting US money, who knows what the next amount might be or might be requested), or a combination of spending, such as each of hundreds of jurisdictions in America spend just $5 more than they ordinarily would have on any given day, it goes for about a week, everyone says the few bucks won't hurt anything and now's the time to seize making things better, and lo, one morning, billions or trillions of dollars has amassed as an aggregate, well beyond a wildfire that can ever be put back under control.

So, even if the 'debt ceiling' per se, as in the official debt ceiling legal instrument, is abolished, the conceptual debt ceiling, as in there is a common sense line in the sand, that at some point, someone needs to say, that's enough spending, or we're spending too much too fast, might have to occur.

In another aspect, respect is given to the input of higher ranking military officials on national financial matters. Keep in mind, some of those officials have been looking at financial numbers for hours every day, for decades. They know the trends, and the what-ifs. They also understand vulnerability concepts to strong levels. When money is needed to protect and defend, money is needed; simple, put the shields up you need when it's raining arrows of fire, and if the shields do not go up, the palace burns; the shields might have a cost, an operating cost, maintenance, manpower, etc. The holidays, when soldiers are already less attentive, is no time to be vulnerable.
