A few of us discovered this and mentioned in the chat, but here's the gist of it in reverse chronological order:

[23-03, 18:41] SkinnyPupp So if your link has words in it like "manufacturer-tech-forums" and not "showforum.php" it will send you to the forum main page. To get around this, just update whatever you had bookmarked to showforum.php or whatever you used
[23-03, 14:38] SkinnyPupp For now the best solution would be to update whatever bookmark you are using to enter the forum
[23-03, 14:38] SkinnyPupp I had to change how URLs work, and if you enter the forum from an old URL, your first click to another link will be fucky
[23-03, 14:17] bcrdukes wtf...if i go to revscene.net/forums i may be directed to the VLS forums.....WUT

delete your bookmarks, navigate back to the same page, and re-save them. Or edit the links with the new ones, but if you just use the exact same link as before, then obviously the problem will still occur

The unfortunate reality is that the American public and media will forget about this in about 2 news cycle and nothing will change. Only the pilots died who are "foreigners" and they'll make a scapegoat out of the controller and move on. Remember the plane hitting the helicopter in DC a year ago and people demanding change? Nothing changed.
Actually, there were changes made after the DC incident. https://people.com/faa-tightens-safe...ed-67-11929793

I also think it's an overreaction to say YVR is "chronically" short staffed. Navcanada as a whole is short staffed, but generally speaking, YVR is staffed appropriately. When it is genuinely short staffed, like it was last summer, they reduce the flow rate of aircraft. That happened a couple times last summer, but it's not chronic or frequent.

Didn't they blame the DC crash on "DEI"?

Anyways flying to the US now with ICE in their airports checking your bags and one guy manning the control tower of a major NYC airport seems like riskier than ever business.

I know it's probably fearmongering but I probably wouldn't want to fly into or transfer through any US airports with how things have been in the US. Hasn't there been a few accidents within the last year?

Thread links should look like this now

https://www.revscene.net/forums/show...3341&page=1223

If they don't, they will go to the main page
