Password wrote: A mutiny is brewing amongst FAA employees and in the Air Traffic system. Buckle your seat belts pilots it's going to get rough My previous post of yesterday disappeared. I have it on rumor that the FAA has a well-developed plan to turn control of air traffic in this country to the US Air Force. I spent part of my life working for the FAA and part of my life in the Air Force. Knowing what I know the Air Force would do a much better job keeping the sky's safe and efficient. The FAA is out of control and has lost it's mission focus. Here is the FAA's new priority with your tax money. Keep in mind we have RECORD airline delays and FAA employee morale is the lowest it has ever been https://employees.faa.gov/employee_s...ions_programs/ "There are a lot of women in technical positions and management of technical positions within the FAA, and that’s a source of pleasure.Ann Azevedo, chief scientific and technical advisor for aircraft safety analysis, New England Region Kinda gives you a warm funny huh? Think about this when you are IFR in pea soup. |

It would take the ability to put into place procedures that the air line lobby and their bought off flaks in congress and the executive branch would never allow. |

Yeah, we would have to bring back the CAA.... Airline slots by regulation... Stu's would have to have RN degrees... You would be expected to wear a suit and tie and hat, or full length dress and a hat, to board... Children would be in fresh clothes with their hair combed... The Pilots would stand by the door and greet passengers as they board... It would a hell of a lot more pleasant than the cattle stampede they call airline travel today... denny |

It would a hell of a lot more pleasant than the cattle stampede they call airline travel today... denny My son flew into Atlanta on a discount airline(Air Tran) with one of those short notice tickets that are available for Saturday travel recently. I live several hours from Atlanta so the drive to pick him up was long but he saved a ton of money on his ticket so it was worth. I whipped into the North terminal at Atlanta Hatsfield-Jacksooon around 730PM (His flight was late) and looked for him for he was traveling light with no checked baggage. I swear to God I thought I hit a Greyhound bus station in Detroit. There was nothing but a sea of ghetto thug blacks milling around. My son was a grain of salt in a sea of pepper and not hard to spot. He jumped in and we bolted out fast. It is so sad and unbelievable that a once great Southern City like Atlanta has digressed into Nigeria and looks like some 3rd world **** hole in Africa. I will never fly through that ghetto airport again. I would rather spend the extra money and use another location from now on. I did not feel safe nor did I feel safe for my son. I remember the Pan-AM 707 and the classy food and service and the adventure of flying. Now the airlines(Under Black and Female)FAA management have become the bus routes of the air. Discount flying tubes of **** crammed with thugs and drug runners. Specially in and out of Atlanta. ALL in the name of greed, incompetency and political correctness. Our FAA has failed miserably with the airlines and air traffic control. So sad. Maybe somebody will develop a new airline that requires you wear a coat and tie and treats you like a human? |

He enjoys roaming through the ATL terminal hoping he might someday find his real daddy. Your wife just can't tell him who his daddy is because she had (and still has) so, so many black lovers behind your white trash back. |

One has to wonder how a high priced airline would fare in today's market of Expedia and Orbitz and people shopping to knock off a few dollars off their ticket price. |

No need to wonder, just watch the smaller airlines which cut amenities to the absolute bone totally eat the majors alive. For people who like the amenities, just fly first class. You still get stellar treatment (or so I'm told) and it's probably still cheaper than flying was in this bygone era people seem to be so nostalgic for. -- Michael Ash Rogue Amoeba Software |

The last time I flew First Class on United Airlines the service was significantly less than stellar. I've concluded that any class service is a crap shoot nowadays. -- |

G Personally I'd rather have today's craptastic air travel than go back to top-class service which I can't ever afford to have. Travel across the field to the charter terminal, or visit your local "executive" airport. Also, research "NetJet" charters and "shared" charters. That's where lots of airline profits went post-9/11. No security hassles, no waiting in long lines while the cattle deal with their own security hassles (Why can't I carry my spear gun or taser in the cabin?), easy parking, and a perceived lower likelyhood of somebody messing with the airplane to start with. On a shared charter, you might even pick the departure time. Many of the folks you see these days in First Class didn't buy the ticket, they exchanged FF miles, or got them through some corporate travel come-on. The executives, athletes, celebrities, all far below the leisure rich, are over at the private side of the airport. Remember 20 years ago, when we'd see famous folks in the airport while we waited to board? Once upon a time, the full-fare coach and first class passengers paid lots of costs, and the super-saver fare was profit in empty seats. Not to mention an enormous amount of mail, banking documents, and express freight. Most of which now either moves by FedEx or UPS, or not at all, as it's gone electronic. |
