Psalm 91:4
King James Version
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers,
and under his wings shalt thou trust:
his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
How safe is it to fly?
What makes for a good pilot?
Why are there many air crashes?
What are preventive measures to take?
The HOLY SPIRIT led me to a really cool interview.
Tucker Carlson interviews a commercial pilot for 35 years -- Captain Sherry Walker.
Greater attention has been given to air safety, after the mid-air collision of a commercial plane, and a military helicopter, at Reagan Washington National Airport.
Curiously, Donald J. Trump had just been sworn in nine days earlier as 47th president of the United States, on 20 January 2025.
Nine days after, on 29 January 2025, Sean Duffy was sworn in as transportation secretary.
"And then, the "tests" began.
Within hours, the D.C. commercial plane and military helicopter collision.
In less than 24 hours from that, the northeastern Philadelphia Learjet crash.
Can any ordinary man handle such grief, and tribulation?"
-- "TRUMP and DUFFY"
Seems Trump is often right.
He didn't want DEI in the cockpit.
Captain Walker confirmed the same.
She also spoke of ESG getting in the way.
As well as atrocious attitudes of some young pilots.
Which gets in the way of authority, safety, and precision.
Many lives, on the air, and on the ground, are at stake.
Pilots MUST not be distracted by anything.
There is such a thing as "pilot mindset".
A cool explanation can be found on Southern Wing's article:
"Pilot Mindset And How It Can Affect The Safety Of Your Flight"
That's also why Captain Walker teaches "Human Factors".
Aviation Maintenance Technicians (AMTs), describe "Human Factors" in terms of stress, fatigue, and complacency.
A wonderful 30-page pdf on AMT Human Factors can be found here.
Captain Walker has remarked on ESG's effect on the aviation industry.
She says it is a "distraction".
But what is ESG?
"Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) is shorthand for an investing principle that prioritizes environmental issues, social issues, and corporate governance.[1] Investing with ESG considerations is sometimes referred to as responsible investing or, in more proactive cases, impact investing."
-- Wikipedia
Of course, it's a UN initiative, as always.
President Trump has no patience for woke left, DEI, and ESG.
He has wiped all that from his administration.
To the great furor of its followers.
Doesn't matter, president Trump will fight it out.
He cares about lives; not personal dramas, or gender confusion.
Much less administrative incompetence.
Or bickering critics.
Is it safe to fly?
Sure, if you follow GOD's flight PLAN.
Which was paved by His Son, JESUS, the "Prince of Peace".
Who commanded we be born again -- of "water and of the Spirit".
And that we support His appointed "captain".
Captain Donald Trump, and team, are on board.
Whether on land, sea, or air.
All "territories" of secretary Duffy's department.
We serve the LORD, and His president:
"Love him, or hate him, GOD chose him"
