Re: boeing 737 max retrurns coming back
The MAJORITY of the fault lies with Boeing ( get it "lies" ) From an engineering and redundancy standpoint ( more in my filed) they failed in many ways .

Punishments for pilots
Hello,
I am wondering, What types of mistakes can lead to what types of punishments for a pilot? Does a pilot lose license for lifetime? or its penalties? or probation? or jail time?
Where to find more information about this?
Please advice.
Regards

Re: Blacklisted IP
if its dynamic IP, you can get another one, maybe reset the modem coming from your ISP and get new IP, or you can just call your ISP and get another IP assigned. I am afraid, if your IP range has been blacklisted then it will little harder.
Thanks
