They're called "test flights". They're tests, shit will fail. Shit will explode, because..... they're test flights. Can we find better arguments than this silliness, please?
Okay.
I would not like someone that treats everything like a test flight program to run the FAA, or in fact run anything that's not a test flight program.
Yeah, that's a better way of putting it, but you could also argue that that person does have experience since their test flights are done on a higher level than regular flights (they test space flights), and your regular FAA flights are a breeze to them? This is not the point anyway. Oh well.
I think coordinating 45000 flights a day is more complicated than following regulations to launch 1 rocket.
