I have been learning to fly and hanging out at KLNS (Lancaster PA) for years, and it has been a privatized airport tower ever since i've known about it. Nicest controllers, safe airport and friendly skies. They're not any more incompetant than a "guvenment" controller and most certainly they enjoy aviation and the lifestyle just as much as anyone else could! Heck they even volunteer to the ground schools and give tours when the FAA allows! Just thought i'd throw that in ![]() The big ATC privatization issue is not so much about the tower guys at your little class D airports. The big worry is more about enroute stuff, centers, approach, departure, clearance delivery and all of a sudden everyone getting repeatedly billed large sums of money just for flying thru some airspace handled by some private corporation that will staff these positions with personnel the quality of a typical computer tech support script-parrot. |
