re: #269 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.
There’s a pin on Pinterest that I’ve seen that goes through several iterations of euphemisms for biology, and a follow-on that adds additional phrases for NASA. The one that kills me every time is “lithobraking maneuver” - “the damn thing crashed into the ground.”
One of the analysis-driven categories for Army aviation accidents is “Controlled Flight Into Ground”. Probably the same for the FAA.
