Making Flying Dangerous Again: Trump starts firing FAA staff

[GLASNOST]

The skies actually become safer when you fire DEI hires.

Probably.

 

[BULLDOG]

In order to train a new employee an experienced person had to split his attention from normal duties

Great. No need to waste time training them.

sound and prudent judgment based on a simple perception of the situation or facts… See the full definition

I'm sure that would be a valid answer for a crazy MAGA/cult member.

Seriously? You don't think that eliminating people who were hired for their hair color, sexual orientation, skin color, how deep a dick they can take is worse than someone who is hired for their technical skills and knowledge? You know, their 'competence?" That to eliminate anyone hired for less than their competence would not make the skies safer?

You have no clue what the term, "Common Sense" means and I even provided you a definition.

C'mon ... the Administration hired back all the guards for our nuclear weapons ... now you want safe skies? ... talk about old wine in new skins ...

No one's been watching the railroads ... have fun at your next derailment ...

Its possible to increase the budget with the money saved elsewhere

And after axing DEI we can rehire again

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration has begun firing several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees, upending staff on a busy air travel weekend and just weeks after a January fatal mid-air collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport….

The impacted workers include personnel hired for FAA radar, landing and navigational aid maintenance, etc,

Well, after a month of fatal mid-collisions and near misses the Trump Administration now wants to gut the FAA, the agency that regulates air safety.

Good move Trumpers.

Considering the FAA has 50,000 employees...a couple of hundred are not going to alter the safety profile of the administration.

 

[Mac-7]

Great. No need to waste time training them.

Now you’re getting hysterical

 

[GLASNOST]

Are you telling me that "a month of fatal mid-collisions and near misses" is part of the FAA's accomplishments? If Trump fires them I will be waiting with glee to see their CV when they apply for their next job application.

Those accidents all occurred under Trump’s watch.

No, it's been under Biden's watch. It's true that Trump inherited the whole kit and caboodle but by firing the nincompoops who were considered adequate by Biden's standard Trump is setting a new standard requiring competence - but you've already stated that you prefer another "month of fatal mid-collisions and near misses". It is clear that you hate your countrymen, but why?

President's day is "big air travel weekend"?

You are an idiot. The requirements for the job are the same as always.

Is it your contention that Trump is somehow at fault for the lack of trained ATC's less than a month into his Presidency? If people are quitting because there's a lack of staffing the incoming Admin didn't have anything to do with that.

I suppose I could write a lengthy explanation of why you are wrong, but you childishly stupid cult members are too dumb to understand it.

As with any field, expected atrition requires replacements to be trained to replace them.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Perhaps not yet, but just wait till a few more planes crash. That will give him the leverage he wants.

Keep those DEI hires in place and crashes will continue as they have been under DEI.

democrats would be funny if they weren't so dangerous.

Sure that's almost all fields. Not sure how that puts the blame for the shortage on the current admin.

Proof that you can't fix stupid ^^^

 

[Tommy Tainant]

Trump has gotten rid of so many experienced and knowledgable people since becoming Emperor that we are left with empty desks or clueless toadies and loyalists.

It's a dark time in our history, but we have survived worse. Democracy is under duress like it has not been in well over a century.

I think MAGA would rather crash into a skyscraper than be helped by a DEI pick. Popcorn time.

Yeah, I've been trying to fix you for over a decade and you remain just that, broken.

I try to avoid flying in this country on anything other than large airliners flying long distance routes to major cities. I actually prefer shorter distances being on charter buses.
