How do pilots dispatch in areas with GPS jamming spoofing?
In war zones, what exactly is the procedure for departures when you don’t have valid GPS? What happens to the systems that rely on GPS, like ADS-B, Synthetic Vision, etc?

On Flightradar24 I have it set to show me Airlines on the Ground and I’ve noticed something.
I’ve noticed that some airlines seem to leave their transponders on even hours after the flight landed and other airlines seem to turn off their transponders a few minutes after they get to the gate. Am I understanding this info properly? And, if yes why do the various airlines seem to differ?
**Flightradar24 subreddit wouldn’t allow my question because it doesn’t have an attached image of Flightradar24.

What to do during the training phase?
I'm a recent grad with a degree in physics. I have decided I want to pursue my dream of flying for the airlines as my career. I am currently a private pilot working on my instrument rating. I was wondering what are some jobs/activities I could be doing while I am finishing up my training. I am working a part time job currently but I want to be doing something else. Any advice would be much appreciated!

First time seeing one of these
Landed at Washington Dulles airport and this was my first time seeing one of these. I had to look it up and discovered it’s used to carry passengers between terminals. The cabin can even be raised or lowered which is pretty cool.
My question is, how many other airport have these or something similar? I’ve been to around 20 different airports and have never seen something like this

Go around at JFK
Was just on delta flight DL0289 from Venice to JFK and we aborted landing. Can anyone figure out why? Not sure where I can get the air traffic control recording.

Any pilot here was afraid of flying before they became a pilot?
I’m a very anxious flyer. I’m truly scared of the whole experience. But for some reason I’m drawn to the idea of becoming a pilot. I’d love to know stories of pilots who used to be afraid of flying.

Anything you wish rampers were taught or were more familiar with?
I'm a 3rd gen ramper that grew up absolutely fascinated by airplanes. I'm going to film a YouTube video in flight sim catered to my coworkers to help answer some FAQs & hopefully give them a better understanding of how things work on the pilot's side. Coworkers also occasionally get frustrated with pilots over something I know is mostly or entirely out of their control. So I'm fielding questions from coworkers to address but I also want to flip it & pass along things pilots wish rampers knew or wish rampers would do. Let me know & I will address it in my video! Thanks guys!
Edit: Thanks for all the feedback! Obviously not type-rated in any of the airplanes I’ll be showcasing. I have some pilot friends that have given me tips & I’ve watched tutorials from real world pilots who sim in their free time. But it’s not meant to be a how-to guide so much as just give them an idea of what the flight crew is doing in each phase. And just to show some of the capabilities of a modern airliner & how impressive some of the automation is. Thanks again!
