They are meant to be a check and balance on the legislative and executive branch, but those branches are also meant to be a check and balance against the judicial. It's not a one way street. This statement is not intended to address th

Approach/Departure is SCT (SoCal Tracon), ZLA is Los Angeles Center (en route/ARTCC). While there'll be more traffic, it's still spread out across a bunch of sectors that are each typically their own feed.

The vast majority (or at least a very significant portion) of GA aircraft are from the 60s-70s. Plenty of 135 and even some 121 aircraft are old also (90s, 2000s, etc). The Lear that crashed in Philly was from 1982. Upgrading to the latest

Obviously you're aware of this, but even swapping areas within a center isn't a plug and play process. Most people have no idea the level of effort required to control, between flight following, separation, LOAs, diversions, weath

You can look at contract towers to see how private entities handle ATC duties. They under-staff to the point that single controllers are handling the entire airspace without so much as coverage for the bathroom sometimes for the full length

Contract towers in general are a terrible idea. The level of service is consistently lower than FAA towers.

It's refreshing to see someone say it. As a (non-commercial) pilot it's honestly infuriating watching people who have never tried to fly a plane, never tried to locate and identify another aircraft from the air, and never controll

Realistically, because standing up a new academy isn't fast, and everyone wants fast solutions and won't invest long term. That isn't a party line thing, both parties have that issue.

The difference being is that it's not a resource controlled by the attacker, it's an attachment hosted by Signal. But yes, removing previews for everything would mitigate the issue.

I don't know your background, so I won't say I don't think you understand - but in my experience, government is multiple times worse than any private organization. Yes, the same problems exist - but without any of the pressur

Yes, but you can perform the essential functions with buttons on the GTN650 or 750 (or xi). Frequency changes, direct to, etc are all still accessible on physical buttons, which makes a big difference in turbulence.

You mention that the EC obfuscates the popular will, but you ignore that it's a balance that gives a voice to many who would otherwise have none. Would you find a popular vote system that entirely ignores the votes of dozens of states

You have two options. If you listen to the American left and most media outlets, it's because Trump voters hate women, gays, foreigners, blacks, trans people, and progress - and to be fair, some do. If you listen to the people actually

Touchscreen avionics are somewhat difficult to use during turbulence alone, so I doubt loss of control plus smoke makes for a good time.
