Question of the Week
Question of the Week Home »

This week, AVweb looks to the future and asks you to speculate on some of the possible perks of a privatized ATC system.

Privatized air traffic control — are pilots overlooking the upsides?

No. There really are no upsides.
$70 per year — let's just call it that — would be a small price to pay for the flood of technological advances we'd see after removing the bulk of government bureaucracy from the equation.
I've got no problem with the $70 per year if they remove the fuel tax.
Privatize away. Anything would be better than what we've got with the FAA and NATCA.
