The 149 air traffic facilities slated to begin closing on April 7 are all staffed by contract employees who arenot FAA employees. There were 65 other facilities staffed by FAA employees on the preliminary list of towers that could be closed.
A final decision on their closure will require further review, the FAA said.

But Biden goes to France for 1 Million Dollars + his side Kick Obama goes to a Foreign Country at more expense to slam the USA...
SBY operated for many years with no tower. Don't think this will have any effect.
Oh, God. Life as we know it, is gone. Death must be the next step. I won't know how to land my airplane without a babysitter.
God help us all, nobody taught me how to land at an "uncontrolled" airport! I'm so afraid! We are are doomed!(not)
Salisbury has operated for many years without a control tower, and with the little traffic they have, there is really no need for what they have. My question is, can the TSA feel-up artists go away as well, PLEASE?
Just like welfare....how many thinigs were created for hand holding that we really don't need to get along. Really ...think about this...if these towers were really vital they couldn't shut them down. Just more government spending because they had the money at the time. I know the mentality. Oh...the fiscal year is ending and we have more money in the budget we MUST spend.
Notice how most of the cuts affect the middle class only?Visits to the White House,small airports,Easter egg hunts at the WH,working families but NO cuts to the billions in oil,ag,mining,airline,banking subsities.
9:37 - they should get rid of the entire TSA. Consider why they are referred to as Thousands Standing Around - and Totally Screwing Aviation!!
Obama just unfroze 500million dollars in aid to Palestine-aka Hamas. That amount would save all the cuts due to the sequester-which was Obamas plan by the way. All theatrics all the time. That is the Democrat party-just look at our Mayor.
