Air Traffic Control is undermaned. They have some of the crazies requirements to getting a job and forced retirement. All this was due to Reagen in 1981. That ws 44 years ago and we still haven't fixed this damage. Add the increased influence by private companies and I will be driving or walking everywhere.
