Hang on to your hats boys, we are in for a rough ride.

Naw. There's no need to train new ATC personnel for the future.
The resulting shortage of ATC staffing will be used as justification
to enable Boeing to take over ATC operations (can you say 'user fees').
Then US ATC will be based entirely on satellite communications.
Shortly after the next inevitable solar storm, all the airline flights
in the US will fall out of the sky... :-(


ATC could also be done by low-wage H1-B employees. If it is okay for the
high-tech industry then why not for other jobs.
