Waking up to a military helicopter colliding with a passenger plane today made me think. Wow. Could this be an effect of throwing our whole national system into chaos with all sorts of firings, defunding, pushing out of personelle, dropping of infrastructure, etc?
As someone who works in a government agency linked to flying and airports, the cheeto and the muskrat are causing disruption and unease in areas they shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near. With funding issues and retirements personnel are already in short supply in areas that are vitally important and distracting the people who still here and trying to get a handle on things is a very, very bad idea.
Oh man I just saw the press conference and Im like who is this guy showing as head of the faa and then I saw all the top posts are vacant due to the one guy resigning on the 20th when musk gave him shit. What a nightmare. Then the conference they are trying to blame it on biden and dei. Yeah this is going to be great. Only the best and brightest in corruption and graft.
Making me wonder if I should start worrying for my job. I will say, if they start screwing around with the FAA it will make it a lot more dangerous for those who are flying and I can all but promise that.
Im currently unemployed and my current nibble would have me flying once a month. This just adds insult to injury as I don’t fly or drive unnecessarily for environmental reasons so I already hated the thought.
My thoughts after hearing the briefing. Yikes.
The vile stuff he was spewing regarding DEI and the FAA during that briefing was honestly infuriating.
