Yet another slap from your big brother, the FAA; it's really funny what our controllers have to work with; ever been to a center lately????? looks like the streets of cuba.... latest model cadillac is from 1959; but as long as we the taxpayers bail out our investmentbankers for amounts you could buy the rest of the planet with, and they happily keep sending their lobbyists to D.C. instead of voting like us average union people, the only thing they think they can afford is sending their dobermans and keep disciplining us. Instead, give our controllers a decent contract and the technical means to run the most complex traffic system in this galaxy, please. I was in a 727 flying over chicago as both of their radars went out; they moved 900 airplanes with four controllers; they are by far the best anywhere....pay them what they deserve and keep them. I feel nowhere as safe in my box then over U.S. airspace, despite all the traffic!!!!!
