FAA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump has suggested changes to a national air-traffic control system he described as ‘totally out of whack,’ taking on an issue that has foiled numerous previous efforts at modernization.
‘We want the traveling public to have the greatest customer service and with an absolute minimum of delays,’ Mr. Trump said at the meeting with aviation executives at the White House on Thursday. ‘And we have an obsolete plane system, we have obsolete airports.’ “
