How many air plane accidents is that now? *bleep* is going in Trump? Too busy worrying about tariffs when you should maybe take a look into airline safety.

Of course its the cheeto-man's fault. He was probably the one in the tower directing air traffic. And it was probably Rudy Giulianni in the cockpit!

And yet Trump got cheered at Super Bowl.
What’s wrong with our neighbours to the South.

Investigating aircraft accidents has been the job of the USA NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board) for many years. They're experts and generally leave no stone unturned in their reports.

As far as I know Trump isn't threatening them. After all if Trump's personal Boeing 757 or Airforce one (currently a 747) crashed, he'd want to know why.

Why wouldn’t he? With over 77 million votes not sure why that shocks you.

Eh? Many, if not all, in the Civil Service received the letters asking them to leave their jobs + Musk has been running around saying he will "fix" Air Traffic Control in the US . . . how's that for team moral??

Yet the NTSB is advertising the following jobs available:

​​​Aerospace Engineer
Air Safety Investigator
Transportation Safety Specialist
Highway Accident Investigator
Human Performance Investigator ​
​Human Resources Specialist
Attorney-Advisor
Contract Specialist,
Writer-Editor
​Information Technology Specialist​

While the NTSB investigates accidents, Air Traffic Control is overseen by the FAA (Federal Aviation Authority); an organization that has had plenty of faults to criticize. I wasn't aware of Musk saying He'd fix Air Traffic Control but I can see why he might not like the FAA. They did delay at least one of his "Starship" rocket launches.

There are an average of 1200-1300 aircraft accidents in the US per year alone. 3-400 of them being fatal. This is nothing new and has zero to do with politics.
