re: Delta regional jet crashes in Toronto. Doesn’t look too bad, so hopefully no fatalities.

This is ridiculously stupid. That pilot is so lucky that they didn’t rip the landing gear off with that huge side loading. You don’t land in those conditions unless you are running out of fuel and have no other option.

Terrible landing.

Like a certain elected official deciding to fire hundreds of FAA workers?

Pretty amazing how intact it appears despite the physics involved in a moving plane flipping over.

70 mpg winds
+ Ice everywhere
+ Crash occurred outside of US
= Trump’s fault




But not this:

First of all, this didn't happen. Where have hundreds of FAA workers been fired?

Second - and this is probably the most important point - this happened in Canada. Last I checked, Canada isn't our 51st state yet and Trump has no authority or influence over their air traffic.

Not that you'll actually respond. In fact, I hope your post was just a joke mocking the lefties that will undoubtedly run with this narrative

I’m amazed it didn’t catch on fire. Tanks are in the wings and should have basically turned it into a torch when they came off

Hundreds of FAA employees fired by Trump administration weeks after midair DC collision

Hundreds of FAA workers were fired weeks after deadly DC crash, union says, as Trump promises aviation safety upgrades

Hundreds of FAA workers laid off amid staffing shortages, raising safety concerns

FAA jobs are not just ATC's.

None of the cuts are air traffic controllers; but many of the roles support aviation safety and include radar mechanics and other technicians.


It's not a leftist a narrative, when you just blanket fire people whose job is to keep people safe there will be repercussions.

Which one of those laid off FAA workers were responsible for this accident in Canada?

It is being said here and there on TV, that the engine was in the back. If it would have been another jet it would have been worse?

Looks like the plane took to sliding after landing and hit some solid concrete causing it to flip.


I mean, is Canada under Trudeau/Castro so far gone that they allow planes to land on ice?

Oh believe it.

American Pravda barely even tries to pretend anymore.

They are unabashedly the propaganda outlets for the Leftist establishment.
