Reply #1: What a disgrace. [View All]

Just a note: your "new rules" link downloads a pdf. The story is at the "potentially dangerous" link, and it's worth reading:

"Under the imposed rules, controllers who do not feel they have gotten enough rest before a shift would be forced to work anyway. Controllers also can no longer take a break after two hours on the job, a longstanding practice that controllers say was a major way to fight fatigue."

What a disgrace that the FAA cut off contract talks. Hopefully the new House will pass a bill making them go back to the table.
