Boeing Gets Grounded and the FAA Is Broke AF | The Daily Show 

R.I.P. to the lives lost in the Ethiopian Airlines Crash 🙏🏾💔

1:55 Remember kiddies, regulations are designed to protect. When you cut regulations, people die. This is why you should view anyone calling for deregulation with distrust at best, suspicion of murderous intent at worst.

It explains why the US was so reluctant.

Wait until everyone figures out the FDA has the same self-regulation process for mass food production

To sum up a lot of people lost their life and other lost their relatives just because of MONEY 😑...

Companies priority list: 1) Maximize profits 2) Upper management golden parachutes 3) Stockholders 4) Deny any company wrongdoing. If can't deny, then lie. 5) If deny and lie doesn't work, blame someone else. 6) Customers 7) Workers

FAA hasn't enough funding, How much did that fridge for Air Force 1 cost?

I have watched a couple of tutorial videos on RU-vid. I am ready to fly.

Hey hey hey but we have money for space force, we don't give a damn about human life....

My father must be turning in his grave. He was a mechanic for United from 1953 to 1972, and the only airplane he knew was unsafe early on was the DC10. The state of our airlines and aircraft manufacturers is sad.

An hour on an ipad Looks like teh FAA took flight simulator games to be the real deal

What? Companies are free from regulation and decided to put profit above safety and human decency? *Surprised Pikachu Face*

My condolences to families involved with the crashes of these planes and may someone fix this issue

I've worked in Boeing aircraft factories as a parts contractor; the workers rarely take their work seriously. You really want to trust Boeing planes when Boeing doesn't even care enough to discipline the people that build 55-60 of their commercial planes a month??!! I'd rather build my own plane! At least I know it'd be quality work, y'know, because I CARE, and I wouldn't cut corners to meet a deadline.

Another instance that shows how money rules over everything.

It's U.S.A, where the money go first, and human life maybe second. What are you expecting anyway ?

"On behalf of Boeing, Let's hope we make it". I was already afraid of flying. When will these corporations start putting lives ahead of profit.

Windows 98 doesn't scare me, it's Win10 you have to worry about. Just in mid flight the pilot sees "Your Plane is installing updates and needs to be restarted! Shutting Down..."

Cut cost to maximize profits...hundreds of people die 🤔

“Runs on Windows 98” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The truth is scarier than fiction....

The price of capitalism and lobbying by big corporations to the government, in other countries, that would be called bribing

So I can be a pilot just by playing Flight Simulator?

The FAA- owened and operated by boiieng, what could go wrong?

This report shows how Dump's America works in a nutshell... We are lucky as hell that not another plane fell from the sky like the last two did.

I love how it's "the plane manufacturers". It's literally only one. Boeing.

I worked for Boeing for 10 years and its true there are designated FAA engineers representatives. But it takes years of training to become one, you have to be personally sponsored and trained by an existing one and you only work on certifying a specific commodity such as seats or galleys or an Avionics system. Its really a shame this happened and things definetely have to improve but its not for lack of effort. Every screw that goes on that plane goes through dozens of review boards and functional tests.

The one plane where it’s okay to clap when it lands.

Talk about them trying to "Max" out their profits

Cash money has become more valuable than human life... Sad!

Well ain't that a damn shame. Do the pilots or the FAA not have loved ones that fly on planes? How would they feel if someone compromised their safety to cut costs?

Thanks Trevor!!! I love you and all but now I'm afraid to fly again!!🤦🏽‍♀️🛬🙅🏽‍♀️

That ad at last tho😂😂

Dear Trevor, thank you for bring this .. it was happened in my country Indonesia with Lion Air , 2018. Many of those victims were from Ministry of Finance . My officemate cousin and his wife were one of them. ..yes, it was a tragedy, but still.. it can be solved before the flight...

Love you trever! You help me cope with our presidential situation. Lol, the ipad

Didn't someone cut the funding to the FAA last year?

Trevor Noah is becoming John Oliver with these short films

Another shining example of corporations regulating the government instead of the other way around. Yay capitalism!!!

Can't believe the amount of people that honestly think pilots trained for an hour to fly a 737 Max 8 . They received their Type rating to fly 737 which is quite extensive, AND THEN an hour extra for them to familiarize with the differences of this specific model. How can so many people be so stupid?

About to get on a 737 watching this before a flight was a mistake 😂

Planes seats are floatation devices...... Why can’t the back part be a parachute 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

So what you're saying is I could tell my teacher I got an A in this class, and no longer need to come, then submit data that I compiled, to affirm I should no longer have to come to class and still have an A.

This is giving me John Oliver vibes and I love it

Ok, but to those wondering about pilot training: there is more to it than that hour on an iPad. That pilot has to have extensive training, including real time flying planes, to get a license and to fly commercially. THEN they get the hour of training for the controls of that specific plane. Most of the main controls are easily recognizable, so it's just a matter of lesser used controls. I would say that if pilots don't feel 1 hour is enough time for training, then they need to increase it until they feel comfortable, but that isn't the reason the planes crashed..

I hope the relatives from the diseased of both crashes sue the shit out of Boeing so it costs them x100 vs what they saved by cutting costs on training... as a warning for future absurd cost saving techniques like this...

Trevor, if you are worried about iPads being used for training what do you think of the fact that iPads are in uses for primary navigation, ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast) and backup AHARS (Attitude Heading And Reference System) in tens of thousands of GA aircraft?

When they are building planes, they aren't using the best parts. It comes down to cost.

Trevor, it wasn't always this way. Having spent several decades in Airline Engineering, I can tell you that we had some pretty savvy FAA safety inspectors that frequented my desk with questions regarding safety procedures and maintenance practices. No original equipment manufacturer (OEM) wants to injure their customers. It is not good business, nor is it ethical. What does happen inside the Boeings, Airbus's, et al is that they sometime fall into paradigms in regards to human factors engineering. If there is one area where ALL manufacturers need to dedicate more resources, it is here. It is up to the operators AND the FAA to ask tougher questions and refuse to put any aircraft into revenue service until all of the issues are addressed to everyone's satisfaction.

Trevor Noah for president 2020????

the reason the training for the pilots was done on a tablet instead of in a sim is that they aren't getting a new type rating, they are just converting to a newer plane of the same type. this minimal training is allowed, however the lack of training on the MCAS is likely a contributing factor.

Welp. I’m taking Amtrak

It's sad, Boeing gave Bombardier such a hard time about the new CS300 (now the new Airbus A220) a tested plane Bombardier was practically giving away and Boeing had the government block the sale of that plane in the US. And now they're having problems with a plane they rushed into service.....

Just guessing: Build a nose heavy plane. Fix/adapt neither sensors nor software for the nose-heavy build. Don't instruct pilots en-detail on differences to the normal 737. Equals dead people. No let's see what the faa "finds out".

As a person who has roommates who work at Boeing, you’ve been lightly misinformed Trevor. Boeing offered the pilots full training in Vegas. The airlines outside of the United States declined these trainings and instead settling for the 90 minute iPad version, because either the pilots were too lazy or the airlines wanted to cut costs.

Pff, about 20 years ago, it was already known that flying is about money. There was a known defect with a plane. They could fix it. But that would costs billions - to recall all planes and fix the problem. That sensory problem was quite rare though. So the lawyers, statistical analysts + insurance companies decided to let the problem remain, meaning they knew that one in every 450.000 flights would be prone to crashing. But.... It was cheaper to pay off the relatives of the people that died in the crash, than it was to repair the planes. I think you can guess what happened...

Flying with Boeing is like angry birds. You go up you go down and then everybody is angry. I can't no more.

Trevor has the best news show on tv

We're getting an upgrade on some of the programs we use at work in a couple months, they've allocated a week of training for that and I doubt it's as complex as the instrumentation on an airplane.

But some folks said government regulations is bad, that companies and Capitalism market force know best. Surprise2 capitalism cutting corner for more profits.

I used to work in the flight simulation industry. Flight simulators really are better training tools than i-pads.

Next thing you know is all pilots will be using their iPads to fly planes from the comfort of their living rooms.

that ad couldn’t be more funny but it’s also real

0:41 When the white within us all tries to come out

You guys wanna know a cool fact. ITS NOT BOEING, NOT BOEING AT ALL. The stall detector, which is commonly found as faulty, is what caused the plane to do this. The stall detector gave a wrong reading to the onboard computer and to the pilots. The plane was doing exactly as it was supposed to do, push the nose down if the plane is stalling is the way to escape the stall. The problem was the stall detector and the pilots/airline companies for both crashes. First of all, experienced pilots know how to fix this, a 777 pilot said that he would be prepared to deal with the issue because of his experience. 737 pilots are still in the middle pack, yes they are good and confident however they are not pros and do not know how to react to specific situations. Both crashes involved airlines not well know for keeping a modern/large and expensive fleet. They do not teach their pilots if they dont have to so the pilots are not ready. All the pilots had to do is turn off the stall detector completely(which is an option on every plane and is what pilots do if the detector gives them a false reading) and then fly the plane back normally. If the stall meter is off then the onboard computer does not have to overcorrect for a stall because it has no information of a stall. Also the pilots may not have been thinking clearly as in both cases the pilots attempted to pull up. If the stall detector is going off and it believes the plane is going into a stall, then the plane should point its nose down. Because the plane was receiving an extra input of nose up, it tried to overcompensate by pushing the nose further down. Boeing is not at fault here especially if the stall meter is not created by boeing. The FAA might have also contributed to the problem by ignoring the necessary pilot training.

Trump is cutting FAA budget in order to fund important projects, like the wall.

The amount of people on Twitter saying to ban Boeing from making planes is actually hilarious because they act like that’s a common sense thing to do not realizing that there is literally only 1 and a half competitors to Boeing. If Boeing stopped making planes it would just be airbus and embraer and maybe bombardier (I don’t know how big they are on airliners) and that wouldn’t exactly be great for the aerospace industry as a whole. Not to mention the fact that Boeing is also a military contractor

hey trevor i love you man...but that ethiopian flight crash kinda still have me disturbed i keep seeing the plane falling from the sky n blow up :( am sorry for not laughing much this time. keep up the good work though cheers

This is even funnier when watching on my iPad

Elon Musk being monitored by NASA because he will launch his dragon capsule with 4 crew members. And the Boeing that carries 200+ passengers not being monitored for control purpose, where is the logic?

that comercial at the end reminde me of the airplane scene in hotel transalvania with the cruise holiday.

End-stage capitalism and a lack of regulation. What a shock.

Trevor good job. When you neglect safety, there will always be sad consequences. They ignore the root cause which led the loss of valuable lives.

We should already have planes built to it's best structure possibility; much how we do for air force one and all the worlds leaders transport. Planes should never have mechanical problems.

_'LET'S HOPE WE MAKE IT!'_ Somehow, that lyric doesn't work as well as the *Barry Manilo* song...

Haha runs on Windows 98. Actually, Windows 98 was pretty okay, they should’ve said Windows 2000 or ME. 😂

A whole bunch of people worked really hard to re-engine the 737. Nobody saw this coming, nobody covered this up, nobody took any shortcuts. Everybody's really sad about this right now.

It appears we may be making too many assumptions and presumptions. Let's please rely on your relatively rational op-eds as they're both truthful and hilarious.

The FAA apparently was the standard to follow around the world. Now countries like Canada and European nations are planning to do their own research and, depending on what the investigations show, may disregard the FAA from then on. Can't rely on them much.

That's what the F.D.A. and U.S.D.A. are doing. Tis why we've been having so many FOOD and MEDICAL recalls.

Talking about those small seat spaces, the last time I flew, I stood up to go the lavatory, my foot got stuck between my under seat carry on and the seat frame in front of mine. While trying to untangle my self from this trap to get to the isle way, I pulled the sole off of my shoe. I am not a very big person, 5'3" and 250 pounds...needless to say, I have not flown in a while. Those were my favorite shoes...Thank goodness for superglue.

yes please president Trump cut more oversight and protections.

I don't understand how we can bring astronauts from space plummeting down to earth safely, but we cant save people from a falling plane in our own atmosphere.

1:00 that wouldn't be bad if the plane basically operates the same. Those pilots already have a license to fly. It's like buying a new made car. You won't need much lessons about it if the car operates the same as old cars. And of course it saves money too... You see the same luny decisions in healthcare... This is pretty much the ugly side of capitalism. Profit over everything... Don't get me wrong though, every system has disadvantages. As long as you're willing to realise that, it can work out fine. But that's exactly what's wrong: the people that get to make life and death decisions, don't give a crap about lives, but about money...

I'm getting on a plane today, Thanks Trevor!

That's for the Trump fans who want less regulation

I should buy my towels on Amazon...

Trevor, say something about the meeting between brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro with Donald Trump.....Bolsonaro deserves to be dissed by you hahahah

Indonesian here, my friend lost her family on the tragic lion air crash. No one survived on that accident. I hope they realize, those paycheck and profit reeks of blood.

But... but... but... regulations are bad! We should let the free market decide... (At least that's what conservatives tell us all the time.)

What most people don't understand is that there a standard procedure that pilots all trained for call runaway trim. If the pilot executed them correctly, there would not be a crash. It's not entirely the aircrafts fault

Is like a disaster happen everyday🙄

Its amazing how basically every agency in the country lacks funding, but the Defense budget get increased by 10's of Billions of dollars every year.

This is not funny @trevornoah. Ur hurting the sentiments of the family of the people who lost their lives on the disastrous flights. I recommend you remove this video. Comedy is funny for the living. Not when you make fun of the dead. Not cool Trevor.

This episode thought me a lot of things. Thanks Travor

one person lost their wife and children in this crash. I couldn't imagine losing my entire family all at once.

Mom: Ur grounded Boeing: but why?

OMG Trevor....bruh... you have no idea how far this thing spreads. How many industries work like this. I've worked in naval shipbuilding, oil and gas, and now water treatment. I can tell you some stories about training and regulations.

......very nice towels too.........thank you Mr. Trevor Noah.

Please let's call them Protections instead of regulations!

I'm glad your troupe attended to this issue, Trevor!
