you would think that our government would actually HELP the people that keep others in the skies ALIVE, but NO! The FAA went into a familiar code red alert after this and hired controllers LEFT AND RIGHT. Since they were a government body, all of the strikers were IMMEDIATELY fired. The reason why the FAA is in a code red situation right now is because in the 80's the controllers union thought they could get away with going on strike. ![]() Before, applicants needed to have a degree in Air Traffic Management at an approved FAA CTI (Collegiate Training Initiative) school. The FAA will be in a "code red" state starting in September. Yes, the stress level is somewhat high but NOT as high as some other jobs. The people that are great with controlling are VISUAL learners that can take a 2D image and transform it into there minds and make it a 3D image.

I am an intern/Student Air Traffic Controller at IAD (Dulles) FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) Tower. Tower, TRACON (Terminal Radar Approach Control), ARTCC (Air Route Traffic Control). Air Traffic Control is what FAA employees are. But don't misinform the public about facts.
