NATCA Vice-President Ruth Marlin
Today, as language to resolve the dispute between the FAA and
its air traffic controllers finds its way into reauthorization
legislation, we take you back to Pete Combs's June 2006 interview
with Ruth Marlin, Executive Vice President of NATCA.
At the time, Ruth remained hopeful that congressional
intervention in the labor dispute was just days away. It took many
more days than NATCA had hoped... but it appears Congress is ready
to work to resolve increasing tensions between the controllers
union, and the agency that employs them.
This feature is in addition to our daily news briefing --
available in either a quick "Touch And Go" format, or an expanded
Aero-Briefing -- where you'll hear these stories:
The tower's still empty at New Orleans Lakefront
Airport...
Canada certifies Garmin-equipped Columbis 350s and
400s...
And ground radar in Lousiville and Seattle is plagued with
bugs
...And more

background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
