Trump has a lot to say about that crashed F-35 jet

By David McAfee
Published September 23, 2023 4:52PM ET

Ex-president Donald Trump found a way to attack Joe Biden and Boeing in an expansive rant about the recent Lockheed Martin F-35 crash on Saturday.

Trump, who was recently slammed by liberals and conservatives alike for a Truth Social post that mentioned the death penalty, took to his social media site once again to give his thoughts on the crash. The pilot in the plane parachuted to safety, and audio of his 911 call was published online.

Trump says he was right about the plane to begin with, and that everyone should have listened to him in the first place.

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-jet-crash/

This wanna be aerospace genius has to fucking clue about the F-35 why it crashed and he has no clue why there is a single engine, because it was designed that way to cut down on costs and to save fuel consumption, he has no clue about the B737 and that history and he sure has hell has no clue about the B757 and the B767 having the same cockpit design for a reason, since I have worked on both aircraft for over 25 plus years and every aircraft that was designed and built by McDonnel Douglas, Boeing and Lockheed Martian and Rockwell International.

I bet he has no clue what the FADEC does, the control column stick shaker, the CDU, MCP, ACARS, he wouldn't know what a lower pressure turbine to a high pressure turbine, TCAS, GPWS, or for that matter MCAS or what a stall warning vanes are linked to the pitot tubes, elevator, flaps. I bet this traitor has no clue why the inlet cowls have a strip on the outside cowls on each side about two feet from the inlets, or what WOW means and what that means and intails......

I bet this "genius" has no clue that the Navy and Air Force version are different from the Marine Corps because of the hover capabilities and the ejection seat is automatic if there is a problem compared to the other 2 type planes

And finally he has to clue what the four aerodynamic forces that interact with a plane every time he lands, flies and takeoff and I bet he has no clue that when he gets on that B757-200 they have to weight and balance check so that he can take-off and not crash....because of his fat ass.....

I bet this wing nut has no clue that NASA is looking at Boeing for the blended wing concept to cut down on CO2 emissions or has its called the Boeing X body.

You should be worried about you going to jail.............

Boeing stopped making 757s in 2004, and the crashes of the 737 Max had nothing to do with the airframe but a flaw in the MCAS flight control system software. And the F35's engine didn't fail because it flew for another 60 miles after the pilot ejected, before it crashed. But TFG is a moron so he wouldn't understand any of that. In fact, I'll bet he doesn't know how a golf cart works, either.

Well he does know more than all the Generals. Hell, Trump could've out designed Kelly Johnson and the Skunkworks. Kelly only helped design the U2 and SR71 Blackbird. I'm sure if Trump went back in time he'd have designed something like the disappearing Avengers heli-carrier in the 50s and 60s. Just think what America missed out on with all his aeronautical genius.

then crashed. So whatever the cause was, it doesn't seem to have been engine failure. So, as usual, TFG is talking out his ass - his own form of jet propulsion. I'm surprised he doesn't fly around the room like when you let the air out of a balloon.

self-propelled flight.

OTOH what happens when an irresistible force acts on an immovable object?

But yeah, doesn't look like engine failure but it also maybe wasn't some other type of emergency sufficient to prompt an immediate bail-out.

That and the navy littoral ships...

It's MIC welfare...

The advanced F16's would have been perfectly capable to carry us to the next stage which is unmanned combat aircraft.

Waste of money.

The future is drones and missiles. Just as the age of the Battleship passed, the age of the fighter plane will soon come to an end. Destroyers with Tomahawk missiles can do the same job for much less money.

Years go by. Years and years. And you never hear of such a thing. Many people come up to me. Big strong men with tears in their eyes. Many. Many many. And they say, I'd never fly in a plane unless Donald Trump told me it was safe. Can you imagine? But it's because I have all the good words for planes. Probably nobody knows more about planes than me. By the way, we're going to issue a new NFT with a Trump Airline design. You would be smart to buy a few for your grandkids."

He could have ended the CW in one day.

If only Franklin Roosevelt had listened to him , there would have been no attack on Pearl Harbor

If only Jesus Christ had listened to him, he would not have been crucified

He is a stable genius, dont you know? He has a way with horses, people everywhere are saying..
