Agency’s latest action to address a long-standing shortage would tap into a pool of privately managed air traffic controllers.

Group representing the nation’s air traffic controllers states it had no say in the agency’s reduction of staffing targets.

Funding will replace eight towers and terminal radar approach control (TRACON) facilities and upgrade 41 contract towers.

System aims to give airport personnel quicker, clearer operational insights.

Funding will accelerate the production of ground-based aviation surveillance systems, though more funding could be required.

Agency plans to install 462 new systems as part of its air traffic control modernization effort.

Organization believes the technology could improve airspace safety, efficiency, and accessibility.

Strategic Management of Airspace Routing Trajectories (SMART) system could shift air traffic control from reactive to predictive.

Program ‘has been wildly successful’ in recruiting air traffic control trainees, transportation secretary says.

Organization seeks aviation professionals to inspire the next generation in a variety of fields.
