Politicians are reactionary, always passing laws after the horse has left the barn.

My son got paid to sit at home for 3 month while he waited for the FAA airman check rides-—literally 3 flight legs and he had to wait 3 months just to get in line. There’s bottlenecks everywhere and this is caused by government.

The Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate carried a 1,500 flying hour minimum long before the Colgan Air crash.

Ha!

Since 2009....and, we’re just now seeing the ‘result’?

Um, no.

It’s the jabs.

They’re now considering to cut in HALF the number of required hours, just to fill positions.

No, thanks.

United Airlines has an ironic tagline....

Going, going, gone.

Yes, that is true as well...many are not passing their physical because of myocarditis...plus shortages of FAA airman for check rides, vaccines, etc-—all done by design. They can’t pass the “New green deal” so they’ll just destroy the industry.

More of the 80%+ unconstitutional portion of federal laws and acts.

There is NO Constitutional authority given to the feds for regulating much less taking over the airline industry.

NUKE THE 80%+ UNCONSTITUTIONAL PORTION OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT!!!!!

Or, politicians are culpable, opening the barn so that they can pass the laws.

There are statistical margins of safety and then there are political margins of safety.

Political margins of safety require no basis in reality, as long as the politician can shake the data in voters faces declaring "I did this for your own good!".

No need to sugar coat it.... it's more like 99% is unconstitutional.

I've heard an estimate that the feds are trying to do 6000 things, when Art 1 § 8 enumerates a mere 19.

That didn't matter to the politicians. "We need to improve pilot training, address flight crew hours and service," said Sen. Frank Lautenberg.

Oh brother. Lautenberg was the prototype for Biden. Senator Bob Torricelli was caught red handed being an utterly corrupt SOB and selling his office right before the election. He dropped out of the election about a couple of weeks before the election and NJ jaw says you can't change candidates at that point so he must remain on the ballot. A judge said literally that it was more important that a viable democrat be on the ballot than to follow the law and so they went back to Frank Lautenberg. He had resigned years before because dementia was setting in. But they figured he had name recognition and average citizens didn't know he was brain dead (especially since he didn't campaign or make public appearances at all) so they voted for him and he won. Mission accomplished.

He was a vegetable as a Senator, someone was pulling his strings obviously. Anyway, I imagine in 2020 someone said "hey, remember how we put a mindless fool on the ballot in NJ because people knew who he was and thought he was experienced and competent and he never campaigned and it actually worked? We should do that again! Someone call Biden!"

Federal government — is there anything in our lives they can’t improve?

The issue and question is when will Patriots stand up and do whatever it takes to take back this outlaw government, reinstate the Constitution as the Supreme Law of the Land, and restore our Free Constitutional Republic?
