"Good people" cannot affect how the FAA does what it does from the lowest levels on up. You either toe the line or you go back to the boards, or get fired. There needs to be a 1981-style firing of everyone MSS-3 and above. Babbitt needs to replace the HQ pukes with controllers, and traffic dodging can no longer be a prerequisite for promotion. Management positions should be details only. Do five years then back to the boards.

The actual functionality of FLM's is so minimal, they could easily be replaced with a GS-7 admin type.
