Inexcusable Tragedy
(00:01.422)
It’s a lot floating around out there right now. lot of stories in regards to what happened, how it happened. You wanna call them conspiracy theories. I can’t even call them conspiracy theories anymore because too many conspiracy theories end up coming true. What we have, in my opinion, is an inexcusable tragedy. Inexcusable tragedy that we just…
Witness for Witnessing. You can see the videos on social media, obviously everywhere at Reagan Airport in Washington, D.C. Now, why is it inexcusable? Just on regular basis, we get stories of these close calls that are taking place at airports. Most recently, there was a story in regards to the Gonzaga basketball team.
and you saw how the close call over two planes almost hit. It seemingly happens all the time. And again, just a little perspective here, which I’m not really seeing. Not really seeing. We have a company that launches rockets into the air and then catches them on the way back down. And we…
We can’t avoid this. Have you taken a look? You can look at social media, the various different screens and radar. The actual shot of what the air traffic controllers are looking at, it looks like Asteroids, one of those original Asteroids video games back from the early 1980s.
I don’t know if you’re aware of this. Again, we did a podcast on this years ago. Years ago, talking about technology and air traffic controllers. The technology being used is 50 years old.

50 years old. I don’t even use GPS.
I mean, you’re still using floppy disks. This is, I pulled this up. This is Airlines. Trade Association Airlines for America has, and this is from last year, last year, last January, called on the US government to urgently modernize the country’s outdated ATC technology and address the shortage of air traffic controllers.
Again, they look at the ATC systems and how most ATC facilities in the USA are still using paper strips to track flights.
paper strips blows people’s minds that controllers are still using floppy disks to upload data to IDS for information display system computers and more than 200 ATC facilities. And he says, how are they supposed to attract young talent to compete for jobs when the technology that they’re using is 30, 40, 50.
years old. There’s no, there’s none. I don’t even know what they’re gonna, what the official story is going to be when all is said and done and quite frankly we live in a day and age when I don’t think most people believe anything when it comes to official story. Question is how in the world does this happen?

Okay, how in the world is this possible? We’re launching rockets into the air, we’re catching them. The type of technology that we have today. You could have your phone on a Greek island with narrow, windy roads and steps everywhere, and Google Maps will tell you where to go to your favorite restaurant. And things like this happen?
I mean, we’ve again, close call after close call after close call, and we kind of brush it off. This, my friends, is an inexcusable tragedy. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
