FAA To Ban Plane Crashes

Aggiunto
 
WASHINGTON—In what officials are calling "a much-needed policy shift," the Federal Aviation Administration announced this weekend that it would ban all plane crashes. . . . According to industry sources, most commercial airlines are planning to fit in as many crashes as possible between now and Jan. 1, when the ban officially goes into effect.

What a great idea. All pilots should be required to sign a pledge no to crash.

The TV version of the Onion is very funny, but linking to their fake stories is not.

Balloons crash land at the end of every flight. I guess they are just going to have to stay up now.

I hope people start understanding that this is the onion.

For those who don't get it...it's called sarcasm. It's the onion!

It's about time they did something about those plane crashes!

Isn't landing just throwing yourself at the ground and missing? I would say that's a controlled crash every time.

Plane crashes aren't things to joke about...

Considering some of the drivle I've seen recently that had the same basic origin, this would not surprise me.
Good for a chuckle though :-))

I always looked at flight aware as a serious site. There is not a Dam thing funny about that, or the fact you posted on your site. If you want to get into comedy go to Saturday Night Live you moron.

I think this would solve a lot of problems. Of course you'll always get the cowboys who refuse to play by the rules.

I thought this was real. Then, I realized all I had to do was look at the source. However, thsi wouldn't surprise me if they pushed this crud through in legislative form.

Then how did you know what and how to respond with your statement? Seems to me like some reading was actually done.

With the current administration I wouldn't put it past some of them to push for some similar legislation. The next thing would be to prosecute aircrews posthumously...

Looks like someone forgot to inform the pilots of that LOT 767 about this..
racerman
it looks like if you crash, you should hope you kill yourself so you won't have to face the music for violating the no-crash rule. I suppose there will be a lot of people quit flying if they find out it's against the law to crash.

I wonder if they could make the same rule for driving a car.

i wonder what the faa would do if there were a bird strike or hydrolic failurs i hope the faa realizes thei no crash ban is a bunch of crap

It's about dern time they ban plane crashes. Over a century of flight and countless crashes and finally they try to put a stop to this. I can only wish that NATO looks at what the FAA is doing and puts a ban on wars.


Can't believe there are people out there that think this article is real and/or not funny.

A whole lot of people take life too seriously, they need to lighten up, they should try a bit of LOL, who knows, they might even enjoy life a bit more instead of being so serious & giving themselves ulcers!

Wow. That whushing sound you hear is this article flying over everyone's head. While it may not be "news it was a great read. Thanks for sharing.

that is just about the mentality of the FAA. They are more concerned about policy making than safety issues, for example the pappy's at KPBX why haven't they flown them so they can be brought back on line> Landing there at night is like flying into a black hole,, The papy's have been redone for about 3 weeks.
