Positive Rate Episode 47: National Air Traffic Controllers Association
In the latest episode of our “Positive Rate” podcast, Communications Committee Deputy Chair FO Melissa Monahan talks with CLT NATCA President Anthony Schifano and CLT NATCA Vice President Justin Garay about the service air traffic controllers provide as a vital part of the national aviation system. The NATCA officials give an overview of their union and detail the tools controllers use — including radar, radio, and surface detection — and characterize controllers as “the glue that holds the whole thing together.” They encourage pilots to ask ATC for clarification whenever necessary: “If you have a question, ask.”
