The Senate passed the Mental Health in Aviation Act and Aviation Medication Transparency Act. The first funds aeromedical and mental health training; the second would establish a clear medication list for aviators. Both are endorsed by ALPA, NATCA, NBAA, SWAPA, APA, and others. aerocrewnews.com/h55u

As one not associated with the NATCA, let me opine that this guy is a fucking lunatic.

Wait until @afacwa.org @alliedpilots.bsky.social #NATCA and #ALPA hear about this - they will be surprised!
What an embarrassment he is.
Tommy Tuberville: Many airline pilots, flight attendants, and air traffic controllers are part of the furry community. It's terrifying.

Even in the heyday of the early 2000's it was hit or miss. I always wore NATCA shirts on flights and sometimes it meant something to the cabin crew. Sometimes not.

It seems we need to work on our brand recognition. A Delta agent didn’t seem to recognize us. 🤠

But, fortunately, the gate agent was top shelf. Super service after the day JFK has had. (And I’m not sure she ever saw me standing in the background.)

I'm just in awe this is happening.

People will die from this and it feels like there are not enough people pushing back.

Also fuck Reagan for fucking up NATCA as they should strike for this.
You’re right—that plane shouldn’t have gone there. That’s my fault, and I should have made sure there wasn’t a terminal in the landing path.

Would you like me to call emergency services, or assist with lining up takeoffs?

The fact that NATCA, the union representing controllers, “has not been part of the design or testing of the system” is quite concerning.

It raises all kinds of questions about why the FAA would embark on such a significant upgrade without NATCA’s input.

20 years ago, NATCA published this webpage which also includes a video of the airspace clearing:

If you read no other account of that day on that page, read the first one by John Carr, who was our President. It was originally published by NY Mag on the 10 yr anniversary.

I can see an AI corporate air traffic controller future of not humans, not concerned with human safety, robotic air traffic controllers deciding to kill off inefficient humans. A massive extermination of humans robotic takeover of earth.

In that I don't know the players...I am leery.

I met and talked with John Layden while NATCA was organizing. A smart man.

I never met Robert Poli.
