The search for an explanation or to blame anyone. In a post on the social truth last night after midnight, President Donald Trump suggested that air traffic monitors were wrong.
“The plane was in an ideal and routine line of the airport’s approach,” Trump He said on the social truth. The helicopter was traveling directly on the plane for an extended period of time. It is a clear night, the lights on the plane were burning, why did the helicopter not rise, rise or spin. Why did the helicopter control not tell what to do instead of asking whether they see the plane. This is a bad situation that it should have been prevented. Not good !!! “
The tragedy comes less than a month after his presidency began and a few days after the Senate confirmed Beit Higseth as Minister of Defense. Federal Aviation Administration, at the present time, without driving.
Michael Whitaker took this position in 2023 and announced his intention to resign in December after Trump’s victory. Whitaker was a SPACEX audio critic, and Elon Musk has been punished to get rid of safety regulations. He said that the only way to bring them to Kaab is to impose enormous fines. Musk Tell him to resign From FAA in a post on X. Whitaker, he did so completely, leaving his post on January 20.
at the moment, This is unclear Who runs FAA. The official is a post that requires confirmation in the Senate, but Trump was not called Khalifa. Chris Roshilo, a former official in the Federal Aviation Administration, recently returned to the agency, and the sources inside the capital have told some news that he was a real leader.
Therefore, the Federal Aviation Administration does not officially hold after the first major collision in the air in the United States in 16 years. In addition to ambiguity is the freezing of federal employment, which Trump’s age by spelling was implemented unevenly and widespreadly misunderstood. Although the executive thing appears to have a sculpture to “safety” officials, there was a collective confusion about whether or not this involves air traffic controllers.
On January 22, a week before the accident, members of the Transport and Infrastructure Committee called for the arrangement of the arrangement of the freezing of employment in A. Joint. “Employing air traffic monitors is the number one safety issue according to the entire aviation industry. Rick Larsen (D-WA) said in the statement that instead of working to improve aviation safety and reduce costs for diligent American families, the administration chooses to publish Dei’s claims to justify this decision.
“I am not surprised by the president’s dangerous and divisional actions, but the administration must reflect the path. Let’s return to the safety of flying and allow FAA to do its work in protecting the flying audience.”
ON /R /ATC, which is a sublardit for air traffic monitors, members of their confusion and asked about what is going on with jobs. “Anyone else notes that all ATC functions were removed on USAJobs alongside DOD sites? Three days ago.
Conditions in some of the federal towers are so bad that they will not be completely close. According to a memo of Airport manager Gretchin KellySan Carlos Federal Contract will not have any ATC services that start in February. The letter said: “The Federal Aviation Administration granted a new contract for SQL air traffic services to Robinson Aviation.” “However, the contract does not include the local wage for the high cost of living in the San Francisco Bay area.” As a result, any of the air traffic monitors decided to circumvent it
The Federal Aviation Administration was formed in 1958, partially, because a series of collisions in the air with air convinced Washington and the public that a federal agency to organize the sky was needed.
