Hundreds of FAA employees are let go as Trump's mass layoffs continue

Sorry, I thought laughing at your comments got the point across.

FAA is currently understaffed - as was pointed out during the DC crash. Now President Twitler has fired even more staff.
You're contributions so far have been - "well, it's not a lot of people overall!" and "it wouldn't have stopped the existing crashes!"
So...what do you want me to do other than laugh at you trying to defend the indefensible and build straw men?

So you think this makes the FAA safer than previously? The same amount? It certainly isn't safer from the quote below


Rolling Stone spoke with an FAA employee affected by the DOGE. The employee worked in airman certification, ensuring pilots are medically certified to fly — a critical role, given an existing pilot shortage. “We were already behind,” the employee said. “The pilots already complained that there’s a shortage in getting their medical certification [approved]. It’s just going to be put further behind now.” The employee said the FAA layoffs came as a surprise: “I don’t think we expected it to happen to us, especially with all the aviation crashes and things going on, all the safety issues that are already out there.”

Rolling Stone is still around?

The safety of commercial aviation in the United States is currently so beyond the risk of accident, hull loss or death, that a person could fly every second of every day for the rest of their life and not die on a plane. That's another fact. Thanks.

Maybe precisely because the FAA is built the way it is?

Let’s f*ck with it just for kicks.

Still can't answer the question.

As long as a plane doesn't crash, it's justified in your mind. Brilliant take.

Even if a plane does crash, that's just one plane. Pretty small in the grand scheme of things

No dog in this fight, but did you watch the movie? That guy was right, so maybe not the right one to use.
