, announcing an emergency order from the Federal Aviation Administration grounding Boeing 737 Max jets. He also tweeted that “airplanes are becoming too complex to fly” and implied that technological advancements are not as safe as experienced pilots.
Beryl Markham, an Englishwoman turned African bush pilot and transatlantic flyer back in the adventurous era of aviation, wrote about what she saw as flying’s eventual future: The machines we call airplanes today are a far cry from what aviators like Markham operated. To hand-fly a jet airliner across the country at 37,000 feet would be unthinkable.
THINK
THINK The A, B, Cs are too complexed for “dumb donald”
THINK The MCAS is really a band-aid to overcome the fact that the rest of a 737 is not designed to have such a big engine attached to it. The problem is the FAA allowing the limitless extension of a Type, allowing manufacturers to skip full certification testing and compliance.
THINK I would like more Sully’s flying . Too much dependence on technology, if we had an electromagnetic pulse attack , could they safely land the plane. Pilots needs more skills in flying without technology! It’s way too complicated if a system has an issue. Can they easily take over
THINK By all means let’s normalize trumps latest absurd statement with a “real pilot’s” opinion that fails to discuss that the problem with these now grounded aircraft seems to be the auto pilot system software and not the pilot at all. So basically, shut up Peter🙄
THINK Jeeez NBC Relax. He’s not the only one suggesting that too much of the ‘ flying ‘ has been handed over to computers.
THINK ... but Dumps are easily flushed.
THINK If Trump said it - must be wrong. If Barry had said it, you would have had a chill run down your leg and would be 'enchanted' by such intelligent and interesting thought leadership.
THINK That is why if you combined great pilots with great systems the likelihood of catastrophic failures are lower. Automated technology is a great 'assistant'.
THINK Come on NBC, you too much. Your reporting is filled with hate. We can see through it.
THINK Aviation expert ...believe me!!!
THINK All aboard the Trump train.

Trump Today: President says ‘airplanes far too complex to fly’ after Boeing’s 737 Max crashA pair of fatal crashes of Boeing 737 Max 8 jets in about four months has punished the airplane maker’s stock and drawn criticism from President Donald Trump on Tuesday. My experience is that ENGINEERS are WAY TOO OPTIMISTIC about their designs, and ACCOUNTANTs have TOO MUCH INPUT in designs. It’s called technology you old goat A man who does not know how to turn on and use a computer should probably keep his mouth shut over technological progress.

FAA head says Trump right about planes being 'complex,' but they're safer than everThe FAA grounded the Boeing 737 Max 8 airplanes Wednesday after data showed that the same model likely crashed under similar circumstances in October. A chicken McNugget is too complex for Trump to figure out. Anything bigger than a toaster is too complex for POTUS. Tell that to the people on the Ethiopian Air plane that crashed. Ooops, you can't because they are dead.

Trump says that airplanes are becoming 'far too complex' after crash of Boeing jet in Ethiopia'I see it all the time in many products,' Trump tweets. 'Always seeking to go one unnecessary step further, when often old and simpler is far better.' I don't want🍊🤡 to be my president Scary that he’s 100% correct I liked my airplanes when they were paper. My brother taught me how to make a nice paper airplane. Then they made the balsa airplane.
