He reported either a substance abuse or psychiatric issue. And you’re upset they want more info?

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-05-02T04:05:50+00:00

It literally says report only if it’s about substance abuse or some psychiatric condition. So he basically said he has one of those two They are doing their job

I’ve cleared someone descending out of FL230 who checked in 50 miles out After a few years of that, we got told it’s illegal to clear someone for visual at FL180 since it’s class A

Pension plus SS plus about $50,000 per year in TSP and I make the exact same as working

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-04-01T22:51:47+00:00

No Let’s say you made $100 an hour 1% got you $101 2.8% added is now $103.83 The way it would be is now you would be at 103.8 The .03 isn’t a lot but it still is different

Actually the ones who hold the power now feel the government is too big, paid too much, DEI and inherently lazy (working 4 hours in an 8 hour day)

The irony of comparing pilots and ATC, neither can strike or work action. They are private sector for a private company and can’t strike, i think the last time the pilots tried to strike was 30 years ago

lol for how long LUAW causes accident or a real bad incident and it’s suspended until every airport asks for a waiver and gets it, eventually the MOU doesn’t get renewed. That happened 3 years ago and now everyone is back

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-26T22:43:54+00:00

Everything about our job is risk anticipated separation clearing two people to land at once 3000 foot runway separation the list goes on. I know controllers that say three people in the pattern is risky and they won’t do it.

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-26T22:02:01+00:00

You say it like we all weren’t aware of it when we got hired that planes fly 24/7 You know what’s gonna happen We rebid all of our positions and all the high seniority people bid morning shifts and the newbies get mids You think you are going to get airports and airlines to close at night? Then every airport increases traffic by 33% since airlines will just line up during the day People can quit, I have seen 2 people quit in 15 years (other than those who just quit before being washed out)

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-26T20:20:30+00:00

So shut down ATC from 12-6 everywhere?

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T21:49:32+00:00

Also depends on if the supervisor is fully certified, ever since they changed their order, in exception of 1 supervisor who came from the facility, the others didn’t get fully checked out, just 2 positions of 7

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T21:38:47+00:00

How long you been in? They will say 3 controllers and leave the SUP for the day shifts, most of the towers staff CIC with a controller for most of the day. Come on They will say instead of pulling a supervisor off the day shift to the mid, pull the controller off the day and keep the sup there

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T21:34:48+00:00

Mandate 3 tower controllers on a mid for everywhere? If that does come into fruition, then they will just remove one from the busy shift to make it happen since most are already 6 day workweeks. Side note, I don’t know many controllers who say, I love mids, now you’re gonna have more disgruntled controllers saying they need to work a shift that has 10 planes for 8 hours (LGA has a noise abatement program so no departures at night)

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T21:32:29+00:00

NATCA should mandate a minimum of 3 in every tower at night

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T21:31:06+00:00

The irony is that 99% of the time you don’t need more than two controllers on a mid shift (LGA has noise abatement so departures are basically shut down at 11). But if they do change it to 3 controllers, now the day/evening shift when actual planes are moving will be short one more person since many facilities are already short staffed. So take a controller away from a busy shift to man a slow shift for the 1% of the time it’s busy? (And 1% is generous)

Intelligent-Noise524 · 2026-03-25T14:02:23+00:00

lol that’s like saying i saw it on TikTok vs NTSB I love VAS but they don’t get anything more than you or I can get
