Re: Future of the ATC Profession
Posted: 01-22-2010, 11:07 PM our military is even being outsourced.... ergo the outsourcing of ATC is an inevitability, and more imminent in some facilities than others. the slower towers are now gone to the corporate world of Midwest ATC, et al.... and others will surely follow. if senile old MCcain would have won, the process would have been expedited. there are no customers when youre a government oversight agency.... and NATCA has fought hard and succeeded in having that talking point deleted. Dont forget about all the variables at play here though. The Colgan Air crash in Buffalo outed the bastardization of the pilot biz, and outed the entire regional airline industry. If the big sky theory does NOT hold up someday and the perfect circumstasncial greedy corporate storm is a major contributing factor in the mid air and all the bodies strewn across the land.... it will come back around. Babbitt is said to be on the bring of implementing major new standards for regional airline pilots as it is.
