Though the crew involved in the New Mexico crash was warned that GPS interference may be present, there evidently weren’t enough safeguards or air traffic control personnel in place to prevent a tragedy.
Why on earth did they bury this as the last paragraph instead of addressing it as the subject? The systemic failure is the story here - GPS jamming exercises are common in the US and have been since the system was established, but only under the current admin have we suddenly seen the collapse of US air traffic control and the removal any sort of inter-agency coordination.
Musk told him ai could do it so he’s demanding that. Ai is nowhere near ready to take over air traffic control. So doge fired most of our already spread thin air traffic control and now there’s shit like this. There have been others and there will be more. It’s buried at the end because the media is complicit and trying to hide Trump’s failures.
dont let anyone you love fly in the US.
Well, that’s awkward…
dont let anyone you love fly in the US.
Or even transit through US controlled airspace.
So if I use encryption on a ham band everyone loses their mind but the military pumping out kilowatts of noise on the GPS bands more or less whenever is totally fine?
You’ll also be surprised to learn they can explode people with bombs and you can’t do that without many repercussions either.
I dunno…it worked for the unibomber for a while.
Until suddenly it didn’t.
Until you can do something about it, yeah, that’s the norm.
You gotta understand the inmates are running the asylum. Whatever the worst choice is, bet they’ll make it.
That has me wondering who was in the medevac flight, tbh.
Accidently? I doubt it
With Pete Kegsbreath in charge he was probably drunk and thought it was a cool party trick.
Also killing medical personal, something that was unspeakable before, is apparently standard procedure now for these dweebs.
