Peter, it was your quote in the aforementioned "washington post" piece last night that led to us wanting to invite you on the broadcast tonight. and here it is. the thing that strikes me about this is the stupidity of involving the president. they are still treating this like a family-run business and they have a p.r. problem. what they don't seem to understand is this is a criminal investigation involving all of them. so in lay terms, peter, how did the president put himself in greater legal jeopardy or in legal jeopardy at all by getting involved in a statement for his son donald junior abou...

>> there is a schizophrenia to what he has been saying this morning on talk shows. as i try to divine it, a couple of things come to mind. first is he's saying in very legalistic terms that the president has not received a target or subject letter from mueller so that he is technically in legal terms not a target of criminal investigation. fair enough. the president, of course, doesn't talk in legal terms, he talks in lay terms and he feels that he's under siege or under investigation, broadly speaking. those things are not necessarily in conflict with one another. with respect to the presiden...

Increase your stalling speed. in lay terms, that means the aircraft can stall actually at higher speed if there is this increased wind loading. this is a problem flying through the area of turbulence through the thunderstorms. it is a judgment tack by the pilot. do you go up high to go over top of the weather with the reduced margin of error. do you descend and go through the bad weather where the aircraft can withstand bigger fluctuation in speed. having spent 30 years flying myself i tried both methods on numerous occasions, it is uncomfortable descending a bit, it does give you the reassura...

It was simply unstabilized. and a go-around should have been, in fact is mandated to be required in order to avoid an accident. >> put me in that cockpit and in lay terms, tell me on what equipment am i relying if i'm the captain that tells me where to land the aircraft? >> all right. the pilot's looking outside, because this is a visual approach. he's looking at the runway, and he can see the touchdown zone of the runway. that's the part that we've all seen as passengers or pilots. that's the part where all the skid marks are, about 1,100 feet down the runway. now, that's the aiming point. th...
