Airplanes Landed on Wheels Before FAA Terminations, and Pete B was in Charge

How many domestic airline crashes did we have under Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg?
Did you make a thread about this one?

  • June 2022
A Red Air McDonnell Douglas MD-82 crash-lands and catches on fire while landing at Miami international airport. All the people on board survived with 3 occupants being hospitalized for minor injuries.
 
How many train wrecks?

An airline's computer system is outside of the government's scope because it's a private company.

Sooooooo, there's that.
The FFA is outside the government's scope? It's private? Who knew?

On January 11, 2023, U.S. flights were grounded or delayed as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) attempted to fix a system outage.[1][2] FAA paused all flight departures between 7:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. ET.[2] Flights already in the air were allowed to continue to their destinations.[1] Around 8:30 am. ET, flights were beginning to resume departures.[1] The outage was the first time since September 11, 2001, that the FAA issued a nationwide ground stop in the United States.[3]

A preliminary investigation of the incident demonstrated to FAA investigators that a "damaged database file" may have caused the outage of the FAA's Notice to Air Missions (NOTAM) system, responsible for notifying pilots of safety hazards.[4] The FAA told CNN that there was "no evidence of a cyberattack" on its NOTAM system.[4]

My bad. I thought you were referring to Southwest's database outage because your original remark was so ambiguous.

Solid point.
 
There have numerous news worthy crashes since Trump took over. This is not making America Again. When will DonOld get off his geriatric ass and address this?

How many commercial, passenger flights and deaths in 2023?
JFC can't you read my post?

Air traffic controllers are under staffed by 3,800 over the US.

There is a class action lawsuit against the FFA for not hiring "too white and too elite" controllers.

Mayor Pete 'I did that"
 
You don't think terminating hundreds of FAA employees has had an impact?
Watch this video. 15:25 to 15:45 is the clip of interest.



This specifically addresses your question.

These guys are experts on aviation. You....are not. I did not seek out this as a retort but heard it as I was watching this video as this sort of stuff interests me and I learned of these guys after the DC midair collision disaster.

We have inflation on the rise, energy costs going up, and now planes falling out of the sky. And what's DonOld do? He goes to the Superbowl and does laps at NASCAR.

Your post cited total aviation accidents, did it not?

I asked how many commercial flights and deaths. I know there's a tricky nuance there, but figured you were smart enough to figure it out.

I guess not.

No domestic airline crashes that's what you asked. Total accidents is over 1200 in 2023.

Your stupid is a waste of my time. JFC
