NATCA and the FAA still don't see eye-to-eye on the state of the air
traffic control system here in the U.S. NATCA keeps telling us
that we're entering a period of crisis because of the shrinking
controller population, while the FAA maintains that there are plenty of
resources to accommodate air traffic in the present and into the near
future.
Last week, we asked which group has a better bead on the truth.
10% of those who answered said the truth lies somewhere in between
what the FAA and NATCA say, but a 55% majority of you thought NATCA
was right about the controller crisis and that the FAA is just
thinking about the bottom line and ignoring aviation safety.
A complete breakdown of the responses can be viewed
here. (You may be asked to register and answer, if you haven't already.)
