Hi again Everyone,
Here is the third instalment Tucker Carlson Tonight has made on the FAA biographical data selection criteria. He interviews a Congressman Frank Lobiondo who chairs the House Sub-Committee on Aviation.
The main points I took from it were,
a. The Congressman thanks Fox News for having raised the matter both in the past and now, and encourages Fox News to keep doing so
b. The Congressman appears to agree with eveything previously reported by Carlson.
c. The Congessman does note that useless people selected via the new process do get subsequently weeded out (though the issue of the people excluded from selection, in favour of those useless people, was not directly addressed).
d. And that prior to Congress stepping on on the matter, the FAA was excluding Military Air Traffic Contollers from the process of becoming Civilian Air Traffic Controllers via use of the biographical data.
Question for the "Fox News is Sh#t/right wing garbage" brigade - Are you of the opinion that the Congressional House Sub-Committee on Aviation is also "Sh#t/right wing garbage"?
Question for the "Starbucks employee may be a better ATC than an ex-pilot" brigade - Are you of the opinion that the Starbucks employee may be a better ATC than a former Military ATC?
Regards,
Renato
