Citing a pilot friend’s insights, he describes a “third-world” situation with four-hour delays, a 90-second radar blackout at Philadelphia’s TRACON, and 20% of controllers walking off. Markowski criticizes outdated FAA technology (e.g., floppy disks), a single Oklahoma training facility, and a union-backed age-56 retirement rule. He urges President Trump to “make air travel great again” by firing inefficiencies, starting high school controller programs, and fixing the 3,000-controller shortage, warning of nationwide spread. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com
