Hear Ye, Hear Ye

On more occasions that I want my wife to know about, I’ve had people ask me to write a book. I’ve even had people in the publishing business ask me to write one. Well, I still haven’t written one but a friend and fellow controller has.

Think you're safe back there in Seat 33E?  Think again.

The Tombstone Agency, a nonfiction book exploring the intentional degradation of aviation safety and national security at the Federal Aviation Administration over the course of the George W. Bush Administration, will be sent out to various publishers starting tomorrow.  The book is replete with real stories of actual aviation disasters and near-disasters directly attributable to the abysmal management of FAA Administrators Marion C. Blakey and Bobby Sturgell.  Names are named and no one is spared in this ground-breaking indictment of the culture of incompetence,  mismanagement, and outright corruption that totally destroyed this country's quarter-century long attempt to rebuild the nation's air traffic control system in the wake of the PATCO strike of 1981, thus endangering on a daily basis lives, property, the economy, and even national security.

How long do you think it will take for this to reach Randy Babbitt’s desk ? Marion Blakey’s ? Whatever. I bet it reaches Bobby Sturgell’s last, just because that’s the way it is.
