FixFAA.org would like to extend a special token of gratitude to the Fox News Channel, anchor Tucker Carlson, and their guest, attorney Michael Pearson of Curry, Pearson, & Wooten, PLC for providing a poignant exposé on a significant portion of the Federal Aviation Administration air traffic controller hiring scandal.

There is not much more we can say here that hasn't already been said during the segment. As this site has detailed for over a year, the FAA is embroiled in one of the deepest hiring and training scandals in the history of the federal civil service. There are many parties at fault, nearly all of whom were very deservingly implicated in this segment:

(1) The FAA, for permitting this chaos in the first place, and promoting an agenda that has nothing to do with its mission;

(2) The National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA) for insisting on involvement in every FAA development except controller hiring and training at the FAA Academy, for unknown reasons;

(3) Congress, for its impotence on these matters generally, with the exception of a few named representatives;

(4) The National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees (NBCFAE) for hijacking the FAA hiring and training processes in the name of racial diversity despite no evidence that it was necessary nor, in retrospect, empirically effective; and

(5) The media, for its failure to recognize what was under its nose for 4 1/2 years.

FixFAA.org Is Working Very Hard Behind The Scenes


Our team is continuing to work day in and day out to expose FAA corruption. We put in several hours per week obtaining, analyzing, and compiling information received by sources from within the FAA. We monitor a Tip Line to solicit and investigate complaints. We take no money from ad revenue so that we can present our issues as clearly and unobtrusively as possible. But we cannot do it without your help.

Please consider contributing even a small amount of financial support to this cause. To contribute, go to http://fixfaa.org, and click the "Contribute" button on the right. These funds go directly to the operation of this website, whose traffic continues to increase monthly. Any excess funds we receive will go directly towards funding the direct costs of litigating civil lawsuits against the FAA. The more we speak up, and the more information we put out, the more quickly this will all be exposed.

More Attention from Media, Congress, and the DOT Inspector General Is Still Necessary


One segment on the Fox News Channel is not enough to keep these issues at the forefront of the news cycle. We need the media to continue paying attention to these issues and to use its leverage and extensive resources to conduct their own investigations of the FAA. If you are a member of the media and would like more information about the scandal, please email us at admin@fixfaa.org. We will be happy to point you in the right direction.

Finally, if you have not already, please consider writing a letter to or placing a phone call to your representatives in Congress highlighting the issues we write about on this site. In the future, we hope to have a form letter you may use to do so. This one simple step may lead to future legislation that stops and corrects the problems of the last 4 1/2 years. Included at the bottom of every one of our articles are the following two links, which will provide you with information on who your representatives are, and how to contact them.
