Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.

Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

"The FAA’s hiring efforts were severely hampered in 2013, when the agency stopped training new hires at its training academy in Oklahoma City due to sequestration. In 2014, the FAA abruptly changed its controller hiring process, and made even further poorly executed changes in 2015.  Consequently, the FAA has missed its controller hiring targets for six consecutive years."

Source: House aviation subcommittee chair Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ), in prepared remarks for a hearing on the FAA's ATC hiring practices.
