Why not? Well, you clearly don’t have a clue on how this government really operates.
Will the FAA change this? Yes, when encountered. Will the FAA hold people accountable? Yes, of course, and they do.

How do I know? I've been working in aircraft maintenance for a long time, and have dealt with it at most levels in the industry. A lot of years working with the government, too, including a lot of maintenance. How long have you maintained aircraft, then?

Let's just get rid of all regulatory agencies and let corporations run the show unfettered.

Who's your Rollerball Team?

When encountered? Did you read the article or watch the news clip?

Most of these guys that came forward said they have contacted the FAA and/or NTSB investigators....

The ‘safety guy’ that was interviewed kept repeating the same verbiage and couldn’t even answer the reporters question honestly. Not to mention the guilty/nervous look on his face.

I wouldn’t have any faith in the FAA. Watch the documentary “flying cheap.” The FAA is essentially paid off/bribed by the big airlines... welcome to reality.

But, then again, time and time it shows that all this stuff could be happening right infront of your face and people would still choose to not believe it.

And yet, flying has never been safer.

Corporations do run the show.. money will buy anybody.

OR we can have corrupt-free government agencies.

Even better, maybe a government that’s not controlled by corporations for the benefits of thier CEO’s and the 1 percent.

Let’s try that!

It only takes one plane with 300 people onboard to go down because management wanted to save a few bucks. Will that be yours? Will it be mine?

SWA just averted a major catastrophe that could have ended up a lot worse.... Crew had no signs whatsoever. Go figure this investigation is into SWA and AA MX, well look at that!

So you’re telling me all these whistleblowers don’t make you uncomfortable? You think it’s just for show? Just some disgruntled employees that are trying to get back at their supervisors? You refuse to believe independent investigations?

Whatever happens, happens I guess.

Yes. When encountered. The FAA aggressively pursues enforcement action, and always has. Go ahead. Ask me how I know.

Then again, how would you know? You watched a video clip? How many decades of private, repair station, charter, fractional, airline and government maintenance do you have again?

There you go. You're a conspiracy theorist who knows what he knows because you saw what you thought was guilt on a guy's face on a video. Expertise incarnate. Outstanding.

You wouldn't? Or you don't?

You don't based on your extensive interaction and personal experience, or what you saw on a conspiracy video?

Oh. Conspiracy video. Another honest to god conspiracy theorist. Absolutely outstanding.

Tell me, expert, how do you account for the longest running fatality free period in US aviation history. A unprecedented fluke, perhaps? Did your conspiracy video explain that?

That’s not even a complete sentence, let alone a thought. I see a profitable future for you in conspiracy websites (think “Infowars.”)

Please, tell us your thoughts on vaccines.

Lol conspiracy video? So you think all those regional guys that lived through those times are just one big conspiracy theory? All those pilots must have been living in some sort of alternative reality then huh?

All the NTSB guys and FAA whistleblower’s are risking their careers by just making things up huh?

Sounds legit....

Define “conspiracy theorist”......

I’m gonna guess you’re atleast over 40 y/o and have never lived anywhere outside of the great USA.

Please, tell us your thoughts on vaccines.
Why are vaccine manufactures federally protected under law against lawsuits from patients that have endured life threatening injuries/death as a result of vaccination?

Why does the country with the greatest healthcare system in the world have the sickest population?

Why is every other person on some kind of pharmaceutical drug?

Why is a 5 year old kid who chooses not to pay attention to something in school diagnosed with ADHD and put on medication immediately?

Why does the US have the largest depressed population and suicide rates in the world?

Why have there been so many “conspiracy theories” in the past that have just coincidently turned to “conspiracy facts?”

Define what a “conspiracy theorist” is?
