Happy Flying This Weekend - Who Needs All Those Meteorologists?
https://www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/29/happy-flying-this-weekend-who-needs-all-those-meteorologists/#comment-1109460I keep wondering when the insurance industry's gonna says " no flights till enough Meteorologists " are on the job. Feeling safe while landing is scary enough without the extra stress of the pilots support team is understaffed....guess I will just stay home. GOP is still getting away with unraveling the safety regulations and staffing mandates,,,,FOR WHAT, cause the government is the problem ?
