Few Delays

Commercial airline flights mostly moved without delays Sunday, the first day of furloughs for federal air traffic controllers. However, the tracking website FlightAware reported 70-minute delays at New York area airports because of staff reductions. The FAA said flights headed into Los Angeles were delayed an average of three hours. This morning will be more telling as weekday air traffic picks up.

The hilarious part? The FAA budget after the sequester is 5% higher than it was 4 years ago, and air traffic is actually down 8% from 4 years ago.


But the Big O wants everyone to "feel the pain" of the gigantic 2% cut in federal spending.

More proof how incompetent the obama admin is. They've been talking about this 'sequester' for forever and preparations should have been made and in place. As 12:59 said it nothing more than obama wanting everyone to feel the pain. You know deep down inside he is hoping for some disater to occur so he can play the blame game. He is an evil degenerate.
