I don’t know why you’re getting down voted. Overregulation is crazy, I was watching this interview by the CEO of this company that explores the ocean named Stockton Rush, and he has the same argument that the government needed to stop regulating so much. I should look him up, I’m not sure what happened to him…

Last I heard he’s been taking whole school field trips down the the Mariana Trench in his carbon-fiber super-submarine, isnt that cool!?
Could you also clean up this blood that has somehow written out a number of goofy rules I apparently have to follow?

I think they are aiming for quality vs quantity. Flying is the safest way to travel long distances because of those regulations.

All regulation is written in blood. If there was no regulation, everyone would be cutting corners and we’d get daily titan submersible-like situations.
Do you want a piece of suspension up your ass because a cab driver hit a road bump too hard?
Do you want your legs amputated? Because we can make bumpers go lower and more pointy to improve fuel efficiency.
If manufacturers could, they’d drop the catalytic converter and we’d be back to seeing/breathing cars spewing thick black smoke.

It’s all about the money.

Yeah no I’m gonna go ahead and continue to be ok with building aircrafts and working with dangerous things being regulated 💀

It’s not hard, but it is expensive. So why not fake it and pocket the difference? It’s not like that would literally kill people

OK then spell out your name 10 nm across and send me a pic of the electron microscope

It’s not necessarily about difficulty. It’s mostly about risk and consequences. If a company fucks up the screws I buy to hang up pictures, I might get a dent in my floor or a bigger hole in my wall. If a company fucks up the screws keeping a plane together, it might fall out of the sky.

Then why is it literally my job to work on machines that sole purpose is to find parts, yes aircraft fasteners even, that are not up to specification and reject them? If your metal is porous, it is weak. If your threads don’t make proper contact, they sheer, if the nut head is off perpendicular, it cracks. I could go on.
These parts are rejected because their particular variances make them unaccountable; they will not behave as modeled. If you think it is not hard, I would love to know your method for producing oh something like 300 fasteners a minute with that degree of precision. If our machines let even one bad part through, we’re rediscussing our contract. A 5% false reject rate is considered acceptable over having any bad part go good…
It is difficult, wouldn’t you say? Its a goddamn modern miracle, screws damnit
