from Revolver News:
The skies aren’t so friendly these days. Turn around, and there’s another airline mess in the headlines: tech glitches, pilots in distress mid-flight, transgender CEOs, doors coming loose, missing bolts and screws, and passengers duking it out in the aisles. But wait, it gets wilder. We just heard about this latest doozy: a Delta flight was gearing up to take off from Atlanta and was heading down the runway, when all of a sudden the darn wheel fell off the plane and rolled away.

What on earth is happening, folks? It really makes you want to jump on a plane and jet off, doesn’t it?

What’s going on with US aviation? It’s high time for a serious probe before more people get hurt, or worse. A lot of folks are pointing fingers at the left’s obsession with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), which they are force-feeding everyone, like it or not. We are now choosing “American Charity” over “American Excellence.” And as a result, we’re giving jobs to people not based on their skills but on their skin color, gender identity, or sexual preferences. And then we wonder, Why are things falling apart?”
Revolver saw this disaster unfolding a while back and wrote a series of articles on how our airline industry was flailing, thanks to DEI and the vaccine mandates.
Two private planes collided on the runway of a Houston airport early last week. Luckily, no one was seriously injured, and the ultimate nightmare scenario of a midair collision did not transpire. Investigators are still looking into the incident, though early reports suggest the air traffic controllers were responsible.
“We just had a midair,” the pilot of the Hawker is heard saying in an audio recording posted on LiveATC.net, which shares live and archived recordings of air traffic control radio transmissions.
Someone in the control tower responds by saying, “Say what?”
“You guys cleared somebody to take off or land, and we hit them on a departure,” the Hawker pilot says.
The recent accident in Houston is just the latest noteworthy instance in what a major New York Times investigation this summer determined to be “an alarming pattern of safety lapses and near misses in the skies and on the runways in the USA.” According to internal records of the Federal Aviation Agency, the Times reported that these safety lapses and near misses occurred as a “result of human error.” The Times report further revealed that “runway incursions” of the sort described above have nearly doubled, from 987 to 1732, despite the widespread proliferation of advanced technologies.
