Texas congressmen urge the Federal Aviation Administration to fix radar tech staffing shortages
A tech staffing shortage in the Federal Aviation Administration’s San Antonio air traffic operations could be putting airline passengers at risk, three Texas congressmen said Wednesday in a letter to the agency. U.S. Reps. Greg Casar , D- Austin , Joaquin Castro , D- San Antonio , and Henry Cuellar , D- Laredo , are calling on the FAA to reinforce the office that’s responsible for maintaining radar systems scattered across several hundred miles around the city.
Local agencies partner with feds to make aviation more sustainable It said that a “well-trained and sufficiently staffed technical workforce could, in many cases, conduct more efficient, flexible, and less expensive system support.” The group also recommended changes in how the agency is funded, such as more broadly shielding it from government shutdowns.
