A 40% decrease in payroll costs is a significant savings.


Sure, but most of the savings does not come from contracting out the tower,
it came from reducing the staffing. If four contract controllers can
adequately staff the tower then four FAA controllers could have done so as
well.



Do you have
any idea what motivates FAA to overstaffed towers?


None.



Are you saying that ATC employees automatically receive a salary
increase as a direct result of being relocated to another facility?


No, they receive a salary increase as a direct result of being relocated to
a higher level facility.
