all told me they were frightened to death in the years afterwards............Which ever pilot wasn't flying the plane, was not watching the instruments as they normally did, but non stop watching the sky for fear of another aircraft flying into them............
When they were delayed, it was due to newly hired poor quality controllers, and the separation was needed to be increased between planes causing delays. The pilot would tell the passengers, they were delayed due to "ATC". They were ordered to NEVER say "Air Traffic Control" delay because they didn't want the flying public to know WHO was responsible and most passengers didn't have any idea what an "ATC Delay" meant.
One pilot told me that there were countless "near misses" and "aborted landings" that were never reported.......
Within one week after firing all the PATCO union employees, an even bigger nightmare descended across the nation. Most corporations then knew that the NLRB would not be observing any rules and regulations being enforced by Reagan's NLRB regulators........
The Denver Electrical Union was crashed the next week. None of the Electrical Corporations observed union contracts. And all unions across the nation were also destroyed..... A friend who was a journeyman electrician in Denver said they were all "fired" and needed to be "re-hired" if they wanted to accept the new pay schedule.
He was earning 22 and hour and 26% fringe benefits the week before Reagan's PATCO firings, and the next week, if they wanted to go back to work, they were offered 12 an hour and ZERO fringe benefits. It took 15 YEARS for the Journeymen Electricians to get back to the 22 per hour, with less fringe benefits...The profound effect was the massive destruction of the Middle Class..........
Of course Reagan's brain was already going when he was corruptly "installed" as president, and HWBush and his Cronies ran everything for eight years.
The Reagan years, (not really the Reagan administration,) was one corrupt act after another, with countless acts of treason.......
That was when I became politically involved, screaming from the roof tops at what I saw happening, including how HW and cronies had committed TREASON to corruptly install Reagan. Then screaming at every new corrupt and treasonous actsby HW and the Republicans. The so-called "Reagan Democrat" voters told me to get off my soap box and fanaticism.................
