Trump has unleashed an epidemic of plane crashes.
I mean, he really has. None in 16 years, then something like 8 in under 2 months?
It’s still a tiny fraction of the some 100k daily commercial flights, but it’s still alarming .
None in 16 years? Maybe no airliners, but there have been plenty of small planes crashes in North America. They’re pretty dangerous.
You’re correct. Guess that’s what I get for regurgitating info that I haven’t vetted myself. I think the jist of my post still stands, though.
Between Jan 1, 2010 and Jan 1, 2024, there were only 2 large passenger airplane incidents, with a total of 4 deaths between them.
True, but the rate is indeed alarming.
We’ve had 3 plane crashes taking 5 or more lives in 1 month of trump, whereas that rate was 7 in the whole of 2024 which was a particularly deadly year. Or we had 15 plane crashes with 7 or more deaths in these 6 years and 20% of those happened in this very month.
But need not to worry, we’ll know when the pattern becomes obvious because that’s when FAA’s accident reporting system will go offline. https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-main-public/query-builder
I heard he is going to inject the planes with bleach and shine uv light up their exhaust to bigly fix this problem
Great epidemics, the best epidemics … and other such nonsense he would blurt…
Did any of you read the article, or did you just read the headline and jump to push anti-trump propaganda?
I dislike stripping down ATCs, who are already overworked. But this ain’t related to that. This was a PPL crash on an uncontrolled airstrip. I struggle to imagine how this is Trump’s fault.
Make Air travel Safe Again
Sounds like a conspiracy by ((((them))))
They are eating the planes, they are eating the helicopters.
Planes just falling out of the sky!
Cats and dogs living together!
MASS HYSTERIA!!
Are you the key master?
What the fuck is happening
