Thursday (8/30/07) the Diane Rehm show had an interesting discussion on
airline delays and the NAS. Several perspectives were offered from ATCs,
pilots, airline managers and others. Interestingly, most were saying that
GA was not a cause of airline delays, which was somewhat refreshing to
hear.

NPR usually has the highest quality aviation reprting in the electronic
media.

That can't be said of American Public Media, an independent producer that
also broadcasts on public radio. On APR's "Marketplace" this morning, there
was a story about airspace modernization. The announcer introducing the
segment said "If you're flying this holiday weekend, brace yourselves. The
number of passengers is expected to be up 3 percent from last year. Experts
agree the best way to solve the problem is to rebuild the nation's air
traffic control infrastructure."
