managerial negligence, not age.

The FAA budget should not only be cut, but much of the management should

brought up on charges for criminal dereliction of duty.

You could substitute "U. S. Military" for "FAA" in those statements with
perfect accuracy. I have plenty of experience as a contractor for both
and have found the military as bad a steward of public funds as the FAA -
and they have a lot more to spend. My favorite example is a big
pallet-load of new-in-the-box dot matrix printers still gathering dust in
a mechanical room at an Army base: it has overnight shipping labels on it.

In case you don't find that depressing enough, let me tell you that NASA
is worse than both of them.
