And WHO is the ones who FAILED THE AMERICAN AIRLINE TRAVELERS??

Oh, that's right, "Mayor" Pete and the FECKLESS BYE-DUH ADMINISTRATION OF FECKLESS IDIOTS!!


Now, oh @Blackvegetable  , tell us about how GREAT your PIECES OF **** ARE!! Now, Trump's team will have it UP AND RUNNING AGAIN INSIDE OF A MONTH!! Care to WAGER ON IT??

(via WaPo):

A hotline connecting air traffic controllers at Reagan National Airport and their counterparts at the Pentagon has been “inoperable” since March 2022, a Federal Aviation Administration official confirmed Wednesday, further evidence of poor safety coordination between federal agencies responsible for the airspace where a midair collision in January killed 67 people. 

 The line is maintained by the Defense Department, and the aviation agency was not aware of the outage during the three years it was down, Franklin McIntosh, the FAA’s deputy head of air traffic control, testified at a Senate hearing Wednesday. Aviation officials discovered the hotline wasn’t working after May 1, when controllers at National ordered two passenger jets to abandon landings because an Army helicopter was circling nearby at the Pentagon. 

 “We’re insisting on that line to be fixed before we resume any operations out of the Pentagon,” McIntosh said. 

 Ongoing disputes over how to ensure safety have led to unusual finger-pointing among Cabinet departments. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy has accused the military of violating safety protocols, while military officials have insisted they have followed the FAA’s restrictions. 

 […] Maj. Montrell Russell, a spokesman for the Army, said it was working with the FAA to determine what repairs were needed. 

 McIntosh said that he did not know how long it would take to restore the line but that he expected the military to “expedite that timeline.” 

 This month’s incident came just a week after a Virginia-based Army unit resumed flights in the capital region following the Jan. 29 crash, when an Army Black Hawk collided with an American Airlines regional jet arriving from Wichita. 
 
Liberals are spoiled children, miserable, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic & useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats ~O'Rourke

The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.
