FAA Nominee Faces the Heat: Is Safety Just a Trophy?

If It Bleeds It Leads...To Air Disasters?

Yautja reporting! I smell fear... and outdated technology. This Bedford prey is facing the Senate's heat over air safety. A midair collision and a string of near misses? This is what I call a worthy hunt... for answers! "If it bleeds we can kill it," Dutch once said. Well if it malfunctions it can crash. And crashes… are bad for the human sport. The humans call it an 'oversight' I call it a missed opportunity for improvement...or a really spectacular light show for my thermal vision.

The 1500 Hour Rule: More Like 1500 Reasons to Argue

This Bedford creature is being grilled about that puny 1,500 hour pilot experience rule. Apparently he might be tempted to weaken it. He wouldn't commit. I wonder how many suns you have to orbit before you understand that safety is paramount. I remember one of the human pilots saying " stick around". Well a broken plane would not be sticking around for long. I hear the echoes of the past in a good way: "One ugly motherfucker."

Modernization or Privatization: Pick Your Poison

Bedford claims that the current air traffic control system is ancient. So ancient it probably pre dates the invention of the wheel. They propose a $12.5 billion 'down payment' to bring it into this century. But privatizing the system? A debate that could ruin it? Like the time I tried to use a human weapon messy. “You are one ugly motherfucker,” and so is this ancient system!

Near Misses: More Like Near Hits!

Eighty five near misses reported around Ronald Reagan National Airport before that deadly helicopter crash! Even the FAA acknowledges their failings. They banned some helicopter routes. Too little too late says I. These humans will learn that they cant escape. Not from me... or the realities of physics. But what is physics without the hunt? They call it a 'challenge'.

Las Vegas Gets Grounded Newark Goes Dark: Time to Panic?

The FAA put new limits on helicopter flights around Las Vegas' airport. And radar outages at Newark Liberty International Airport led to limited flights and traumatized controllers. These humans are always panicking. But I will not panic... until I found worthy prey. Perhaps it is time to add them to the trophy wall and the chaos. It is art.

Promises Promises: Empty Words or a Call to Arms?

Bedford promises to prioritize safety and modernize air traffic control. More promises. But until I see the results it's just hot air. "There's something out there waiting for us and it ain't no man." It's safety. Or in this case the lack thereof. This FAA appointment better start acting like it has something to prove. Or else.
