How do airplane accident statistics compare between the Trump and Biden administrations?
According to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, there were 57 airplane accidents during President Trump's administration compared to 35 under President Biden. Despite recent high-profile incidents at DCA (Reagan National Airport) and in locations like Alaska, Philadelphia, and Canada, the data indicates fewer total accidents during the Biden administration. Duffy points out that while air crashes naturally occur in aviation, the statistics challenge common narratives about air safety trends between the two administrations. This comparison provides important context when evaluating transportation safety records across different presidential terms.
