The only thing I find disgusting is that the FAA has become so
politicized that no one feels strong enough to simply order
consolidation based on common sense. Instead, they feel they must
take the "safe" way out by using a "commission" to "suggest" what
facilities should be closed. As if any competent administrator
couldn't figure it out in a matter of weeks.

The current Administrator's only "qualification" is longstanding friendship
with the President, something she has in common with most high-level
government appointees over the past seven years or so.
