you two dipshidiots realize this has nothing to do with him, right? Focus.
I just laughed when I read that comment. Too funny...
But it is about politics, in a round about way. Political appointees set the course for regulators and if the industries see that their industry is being under-regulated and they are getting less inspections, and less attention to detail, they will start doing things they feel they can get away with.
killing regulations is a hallmark of this administration. In this case, I'm surprised that they caught this. Kudos to them, but in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, I'm sure that many things are going to be overlooked. I'm hoping it's not a cut in regulations, and oversight.

The FAA should NOT be involved in promoting air travel, and also regulating it. That duality is ridiculous! The NTSB should be THE regulator of the nations air carriers. Let the FAA hold their hand. And the NTSB should be the final word on what happens. The FAA should have no role in what the NTSB decides. It makes sense to me.
