This is John Carr at his best.


A few seconds at that link.
Clear that the spud you idolize is a foaming lunatic.


What's truly funny is the spud in question and those like him have
done more harm to the ATC profession than any morons like GW will
ever realize.


I'll give you an example. After the Comair crash 2 years ago, the
spud went on TV and said it was the FAA's fault because they were
forcing controllers to work with very little crew rest. The reality
is much different. At all FAA ATC facilities, NATCA proposes the
schedule for controllers. Most facilities opt for a shift structure
that starts out on an evening shift, transitions to a day shift
(with a short break in between) and then transitions to a graveyard
shift with another short break in between. It sounds crazy, but the
reason why they do that is to give themselves a longer weekend.
After the spud blamed the FAA for something that was NATCA's fault,
the FAA is now in the process of imposing a shift structure that
will effectively cut controller's weekends down by half. This is
just a small example of the nonsense they put out on practically a
daily basis.


NATCA has the potential to do a lot of good within the FAA, but
rarely do they pick level headed leaders. Compare them to the
airlines. AA's pilot's union has a very sour relationship with
management, but even at that you will see their union standing toe
to toe with AA on some issues. If you look at some of the other
industry unions, they have a very good relationship with
management. The FAA hasn't laid off a controller in about 30
years. No controllers have received pay cuts in the same time
period. Yet NATCA takes a confrontational stance on every single
issue and they denegrate the entire FAA at every opportunity even if
they have to lie to do so. The OP is an excellent example of the
stupidity that infests their organization.


The FAA hasn't laid off a controller in about 30 years.
LIE
See AFSS


Oh **** I forgot


The FAA FIRED them all in 1980


Not all of them. Just the ones who were stupid enough not to come back
to work after they were warned repeatedly they would be fired for
participating in an ILLEGAL strike.


Furthermore PATCO endorsed Reagan in the 1980 election. I bet that
really ****ed them off.


Kinda like NATCA endorsing Obama ****es you off, eh?


DOUBLE LIE


"FIRED" does not equal layed off. Try again.


It is very apparent not only do you idolize FAA management
you epitomize a weak FAA management sycophant and boot kisser

That doesn't follow comrade.
Simply because someone posts the truth doesn't make them wrong.

If you don't like it perhaps you'd prefer to live in a place that
doesn't allow dissent and 'intelligent' discourse?
