FOX Business' "Trouble in the Skies," a six month investigation of the FAA’s new hiring practices, uncovered changes that may put the nation’s flying public at risk as well as allegations that the newest air traffic control recruits had access to answers on a key test that helped them gain jobs with the FAA.

Lawmakers are taking notice, in a statement to FOX Business Correspondent Adam Shapiro U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren (IL) said. “The latest report elevates the need to dig deeper to find out what the FAA is hiding. What is clear is that the FAA’s lack of transparency and disturbing agenda puts the safety of our skies at risk. I repeat: it’s time to compel the FAA to come before Congress to answer for their actions.”

Also uncovered was an FAA effort to promote diversity that discarded 3000 qualified college graduates with degrees in air traffic control despite their following FAA procedure and obtaining FAA accredited degrees.

If this happened under the Bush watch.............they'd be calling for his head. Nothing surprises me anymore. Nothing.

Obama has made the country numb to atrocious things.....and a lot of people dumb to things.
Seems like there is something new every week.

The same situation that is in the White House and running the country, person of color devoid of any real qualifications, will now be landing planes. Doesn't surprise me at all. Ones a train wreck, the others a plane crash.
