Your editorial (Dec. 30), “Forgotten Promise,” documents the need for modernization of the Federal Aviation Administration’s air traffic control system (ATC).
The airlines believe that the modernization needs you cite can best be achieved if a decision is made to revise the funding and management of the ATC by establishing a new federal corporation, National Aviation Authority, which would be funded by aviation users and which would use all the money collected for safety and capacity enhancement.
The 100th session of Congress will have the opportunity to implement this historic change, which will assure that aviation needs for the 1990s and beyond are met safely and efficiently.
