Here to also wish a perfect Boeing flight to the orange asshole. May you literally become the orange stain......

While the retrieval efforts continue...for another 5 minutes... Well actually it looks like we're just gonna leave the wreckage here and dump a few weeks worth of compost over it to make a memorial park. What's this orange stain? Eww! ... The park is actually a wild life refuge for African Elephants. Here's on just now fixing the orange stain. You know that most mammals can pee like that for 20 seconds?

No no, this is actually perfect timing. Yes Boeing, please provide all the parts. Hell, rebuild the whole plane while you're at it as well please.

[–] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yup. It's definitely time for an all new presidential aircraft designed and built by Boeing and Elon Musk. We'll call it the Cyberforce-X and the wings will fall off if they get wet.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 19 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If he wanted Trump to fly savely and comfortably, he would ask Airbus to provide a new Airforce One.

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 10 points 3 days ago

Yeah, but then he wouldn't be able to put tariffs in place against the EU

Brb, running to the store to buy popcorn.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 46 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Lmao if a Boeing plane made from scrap parts ends up being the end of Trump it would be really really funny.

They're intentionally blocking the whistleblower suits against Boeing right now because they have been using scrap parts in their planes for decades in order to meet rushed delivery deadlines.

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I hope Trump is on that new plane by next year please lord

[–] sploosh@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

Next year? I bet Boeing can push that thing out in 3 months if they really want to AND get executive bonuses for being early.

when one door closes ........

[–] demonmittenhands@lemmy.world 106 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This is Boeing, the doors don't really close lol

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

When one door pops off mid-flight . . .

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@slrpnk.net 39 points 4 days ago (3 children)

It stays closed and locks you in while the battery ignites.

They need to join forces and make the Cyberplane!

The Boeing Tesla Cyberplane could be a revolution in aviation:

  • First aircraft to use afterburners to overcome lack of aerodynamics
  • Heavy and yet strangely flimsy construction
  • Cell phones and radar can ignite the battery in flight
  • Fuel efficiency can be throttled mid air by shedding parts

Relevant comic?

Soon to be known as “Air Farce One”.

Hopefully they’ll be banned from all the airspace over developed countries.

[–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The mental image of Phony Stark and Orange Patriot flying around on Air Farce One makes me think somebody should make a Spaceballs-esque show about this administration.

[–] Zip2@feddit.uk 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wouldn’t that just be a documentary though?

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the show would be funny instead of sad, uncomfortable, and the root of a lot of people's existential dread...

[–] Zip2@feddit.uk 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

If it’s any consolation, some of us watching from abroad are laughing. It’s all we can do to stave off the despair.

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I mean, I'm Canadian and live in Scotland, if I didn't have trans family and friends who are poor, LGBTQ, and absolutely not white, I'd be having a bit of a laugh too. The suffering is still a bit close to home for my likes.

Edit: as below, forgot to add the bit about anyone who's not a man. Zip2 said female, I will leave it as not a man

[–] Zip2@feddit.uk 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think you forgot “and female”.

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

Good catch, I absolutely did. Fixt

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 32 points 4 days ago (2 children)

This is like Tom (from Jerry) working together with the Coyote (from road runner) to try and get air force one replacements available.

To be clear: musk has nearly no engineering knowledge, whatsoever. He was fired for incompetence and literally all his idea are laughably stupid. At best he's a scammer who got lucky.

Boeing is a company that allowed greed to fuck it into the ground, literally, multiple times, killing hundreds for which they still haven't been held responsible.

Having said all that, please, by all means, I'd love to see the result of this freakshow marriage

[–] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Flying this administration around on planes “rushed” by Boeing sounds like it might be our best chance at deposing these fucktards…

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

Best thing that could happen is if it goes down with Trump, Vance, Musk, and Kennedy all on board.

“A ‘tragedy’ struck today as the Boeing-Tesla Air Force One and Air Force Two simultaneously rerouted to crash into the headquarters of Boeing and Tesla. The planes were running on Tesla ‘full self flying’ and staffed entirely with Tesla robots piloted remotely by human operators on the ground, so when they exploded only the president, vice president, and their advisors and guests (including Tesla CEO Elon Musk) were killed.”

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Make it so.

[–] Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone 42 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I support this. And while we're at it, why not give them a cybersubmarine too?

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

How about we tell the cheeto that the first person to touch the wreck of the Titanic gets dibs over all the priceless bottles of champagne, and the secret gold. Plus, international bragging rights. But you have to physically touch it to count, per maritime law. That's why James Cameron and Oceangate were trying to get down there.

Tell him Elon can probably build him a sub he can stick his arm out of. And once it's claimed, it's possible to raise and restore it, and he can rename it the Trumptanic. The largest and most luxurious liner in the world. Imagine how it would look pulling into harbor in North Korea.

It'd be a shame if there was a critical malfunction in flight.

"Defence". They trust "defence"/planes to Elon Musk, to Russia's puppet. Oh shit... I think Boeing airplanes' security will decrease lol.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago

I wonder what will happen. Will the doors fly off, or will it catch fire by itself. Hopefully both. And soon.
