Thanks for the information.

One would think the problem would have been discovered long before
seven years had past.

You're assuming nothing has changed in that seven years. More likely
the controllers got some new piece of equipment and that and ADS-B
aren't playing well together. Or possibly the airspace was recently
carved up differently. So the geeks are hard at work coming up with a fix.

The way I read it was some folks from DC watched over the shoulders of the Alaskan controllers and said you can't
maintain correct separation using the procedures they had developed over 7 years of ever safer operations, so basically
they are back to the "report passing a fix and then the next guy is cleared to the fix" procedure from the 60's...

I can believe that. The people in the top management positions today
couldn't identify a radar scope if they were seated in front of one.
None of these people came from the ranks of controllers. They are
management types from other areas of aviation and sometimes non
aviation. They are clueless. One only has to look at the position and
hold debacle of this winter and early spring as an example.

The real problem at the FAA is politically correct social
engineering disasters promoted to their level of
incompetency while they abuse and isolate vocal white male
employees with extensive aviation knowledge.

The core knowledge base at the FAA and many high skilled
Government agencies have either.....

1. Retired
2. Resigned
3. Given up
4. Turned into sycophants aka Managers kissing the black and
female ass

Blakey is making excuses already for the "weather" AND
trumpeting the "It's safer than ever" feel good rhetoric.

When the mid-air happens that takes out 600 in the air
and hundreds on the ground and those images are broadcast
in this digital age all over the Internet in seconds
all those "It's safer than ever" speeches will be quickly
forgotten.

The same thing was said about NASA right before the
Challenger disaster. Now look at NASA. I believe it was a
FEMALE BLACK Manager who said "We don't need any pictures of
the Columbia in orbit" She quietly retired.

The FAA is on the same path. It's "Challenger" disaster is
looming. It will cripple the airline industry when it
happens. And it will happen. Just a matter of time.

The only solution for the FAA is privatization and a
numbered job bid/promotion system so the out of control
social engineering will stop. Did you know the Managers in
the FAA must justify promoting white male employees and
track Black and Female numbers? Did you know the FAA dumbed
down their FAA academy because minorities and women were
failing?

The aviation system in America should have the best and
brightest employees our nation can produce. The FAA travels
to urban "Job fairs" to hire their staff now so the
"Minority" numbers look good. They call it "Diversity"

It's not much different now than HUD or the IRS. A bloated
alphabet soup of Government empires and social gatherings
with very little focus on real aviation and safety.

A fat man on thin ice. And the ice is cracking.
