航班上三个华人花滑人士，包括其家人

[AQ14]

真是一声叹息，虽然算是命吧。

有必要都坐这班飞机来DC吗，上面不少都是去波士顿的。分开了座航班，不会团灭于一次事故。
民航机都在最后下滑道上了，这次不是AA责任。DC mall附近的直升机起降极其繁忙，就几公里又不是总统，有必要吗，坐个专车。DCA附近禁区又超多，禁止不必要直升机和其它民用航空飞行，DCA的沿河起降本来就超压力大

以后坐飞机要避开这个机场

一家人都没了。也好，一家人RIP
Skating sisters Everly and Alydia Livingston and their parents were among those killed in the plane crash Wednesday over DC.

这也太惨了。。。

It made me very depressed. Wouldn't it be better if the occupants are those career politicians?

美国要是早把高铁建设好，就高铁出行了，哪里有那么多的事情
不打算在美国坐飞机了，太TMD的危险了

想啥呢？美国火车不会出轨？费城通勤火车都翻过

听说妹妹11岁，是飞机上最小的孩子，为了等姐姐才多留一天。

全世界范围统计，以乘员单位人公里死亡率为标准，最近30年坐火车比坐飞机危险

但是各国单独统计，火车比飞机危险的国家不多，美国是一个。日本英国最近30年应该也是，但是可能纯属涨落，多出一次事故或者把统计延长到40年就可能改变比较结果。

其他国家基本上都是火车更安全。但是印度印尼这样的国家的火车乘客比例大，飞机火车死亡率都比发达国家和中国高很多，把全球铁路死亡率拉高了很多

福大命大，这个小孩必有后福！

为这些逝去的小孩和大人祈福。太让人悲伤了。

很多年前，一起聚会的查经组，有一对韩国夫妇，早上坐飞机出发前，不到一岁的小孩大哭大闹不出门，只好取消了机票。接着，新闻上就是这架班机空难。。。。

真的是亲身经历，弟兄姊妹 见证的 神灵的奇妙。。。。

美軍的直升機又不是只飛這個機場。

[pegasus]

1 DCA机场是参众议员和助理随行们的指定机场，这次撞下来的不是政客，只能说政客们公款旅行，只坐PRIME Time
2 直升机和所有飞机一样，只能从白宫和五角大楼之间的沿河空域飞行，危险很大。事故之后，立即停了直升机的路线。说明大家都心知肚明！平时虽然都觉得危险，但是用的借口就是还没摔过，虽然险情出现过很多次！

所以近期用DCA安全有保障，以后就不好说了，人的记忆力短暂

所以空管近十年来一直严重不足，主要是因为没钱雇人，和dei政策好像没啥关系啊？如果是用dei政策雇了不合格的空管，那空管只是不合格，而不该短缺。dei是从2020年开始的，也没有十年的历史，不该为空管常年短缺背锅。拜登至少拉到了足够招聘2000空管的钱；实际招募的1800个空管是不是按dei的标准招聘的，是不是业务能力不合格，这个需要有证据才能指责，不能光用一个鼓励招聘有缺陷人士的公告来指责。而且那个公告没头没尾，不知道上下文到底是什么。

另外极其厌恶下面这段说的川普和musk以忠于总统作为招人的标准，这样搞个人崇拜和中共有什么区别。
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, the technology mogul Trump tapped to lead the effort, has said “bureaucracy is killing America” and repeatedly called for massive, across-the-board reductions in the federal workforce. Trump and his supporters have made personal loyalty to the president a top priority in hiring new workers or keeping existing ones.

During the campaign, Musk demanded the resignation of FAA administrator Michael Whitaker, who clashed with Musk over regulating SpaceX and stepped down the day before Trump took office. That left the FAA leaderless until Trump, at a Thursday press conference after the crash, named an acting head of the agency.

Trump blamed diversity hiring after the crash — despite no evidence about the qualifications of anyone involved in the collision — and alleged that former Presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama lowered standards to meet racial or other quotas. He decried an FAA diversity policy that existed during his first administration.

Though the Trump administration talks about the need to shed federal workers, the government has been desperate to hire air traffic controllers for nearly a decade. The FAA has struggled to keep up with the rapidly increasing number of commercial flights, even as there had been no fatal air accidents since 2009. Last year, Biden pushed for funding to hire 2,000 more controllers and announced the hiring of 1,800 controllers in September.

An FAA report obtained by the AP said that air traffic control staffing at the airport Wednesday “was not normal,” with one person doing the work normally assigned to two people at the time of the collision. A person familiar with the matter noted that the positions are regularly combined when controllers need to step away from the console for breaks, during shift changes or when air traffic is slow. That person spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal procedures.

Don Kettl, an emeritus professor of public policy at the University of Maryland, warned that it is likely to become even harder to recruit those sorely needed air traffic controllers now.

“The fact that there’s so much uncertainty in such a short time period and the fact that the president personally seems to have blamed them,” Kettl said, “is bound to make it more difficult to hire more controllers.”

Kettl warned that there are many critical, demanding and high-skilled government jobs that are already tough to fill — from food safety inspectors to surgeons at Veterans Administration hospitals — and that may get even tougher now.

“The fiber of government is woven throughout our lives,” Kettl said. “If you downgrade the capacity, you downgrade what you get.”
