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?

Piloted using a wireless Logitech controller

[-] yngmnwntr@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Remember Elon Musk in Iron Man 2? Phony Stark pitching an electric plane to Tony who says basically, "it's your idea but we'll make it work."

Don't forget rusting as soon as it hits a cloud.

“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.”

Make it so.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 54 points 1 month ago

Nobody tell him!

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 15 points 1 month ago

Let them cook!

[-] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 46 points 1 month ago

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 1 month ago

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

[-] sploosh@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month 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.

[-] RidderSport@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

I would personally buy their stock to counter their value from falling, good deeds must be rewarded

[-] shittydwarf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 46 points 1 month ago

Please proceed lol

[-] Rozauhtuno 41 points 1 month ago

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

[-] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month 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.

oh. this is going to end well.

Very, very well.

cue Kaylee saying "Don't fly anything made by Boeing, they fall right out of the sky."

[-] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 34 points 1 month ago

Can we all talk of the true tragedy which is the onion going out of business due to real articles being unbelievable satire.

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 28 points 1 month ago

“Wings fall off” switch.

[-] hOrni@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Will it be next to the goat sound button?

[-] Joeffect@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Wings? What wings? Elon will come out with a wingless plane design like a fucking tuna can and then be praised for his stupidity.

[-] Zip2@feddit.uk 27 points 1 month ago

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 1 month ago

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 1 month ago

Wouldn’t that just be a documentary though?

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

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 1 month ago

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 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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 1 month ago

I think you forgot “and female”.

[-] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Good catch, I absolutely did. Fixt

[-] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 month ago

Lol they're just gonna blame "ANTIFA" and vance declares martial law

[-] labbbb2@thelemmy.club 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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

[-] mrslt@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

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

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

It would not be shame, it would be a natural consequence.

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

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

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

[-] RidderSport@feddit.org 10 points 1 month ago

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

[-] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Boeing: Oh, you want a plane now? No problem. We thought you wanted one that actually flew

[-] Redex68@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

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 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month 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.

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

[-] JusticeForPorygon 11 points 1 month ago

I support this.

[-] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

Brb, running to the store to buy popcorn.

[-] sp3tr4l@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Make the new Air Force One the fabled and promised point to point Starship+Booster that's gonna make all passenger aviation obsolete any minute now.

Please.

Please Ms Shotwell, you promised you'd be able to fully and safely refurb an ICBM in 2 hrs, please!

[-] codexarcanum@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago

The all new Tesla Cyb-airforce X! Looks like if the F-117A and a dumpster had a baby, and then put that baby into another dumpster that wasn't it's mother. Is the opposite of stealth. So heavy it requires a support plane to help it fly.

[-] sudo42@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Be sure to ask for the ejection seat tech that Boeing's been testing on its 737s.
