Correct. US airlines fly almost one trillion passenger miles each year and this is the first fatality since 2009.
Eh?
In a February, 2009 commercial aviation crash, Beverly Eckert, who was an effective, prominent spokeswoman and co-chairwoman of the 9/11 Family Steering Committee after her husband had been killed in those attacks, died in the week after shaking hands and speaking with Barack Obama. Bev wore the red sweater that day.
That Barry sure had a great aviation record! The NTSB under Obama was known to falsify evidence and the FAA would run cover-up operations that made a mere aviation "accident" something for which he'd never have to answer.
Since he claimed to be "really good at killing people," it's hard to know whether it was safer, aviation-wise, to be Barry's friend or adversary. At least no planes were brought down during his administration by sparking wires in a center wing fuel tank or perhaps an errant USS Seawolf missile that would culminate in a CIA-demonstrated "overpressure event". Whew!
Is it any wonder Qanon's #259 instructs: "7/10 plane crashes are targeted kills." See! Barry's fatality-to-trip ratio isn't nearly as high as some others'! President Trump's is currently still running higher.
Lesson: Even if the crash isn't staged for a politically-beneficial, election-related purpose, there's still a good chance a well-oiled cover-up can be employed to help with those pesky election-related consequences! (...which is a corollary to Emanuel's, "Never let a good crisis go to waste!")
