SpaceX employees brought in to look at FAA

david.emery writes: TheVerge reports "A team from Elon Musk’s SpaceX is visiting the Air Traffic Control Command Center in Virginia Monday to help overhaul the system in the wake of last month’s deadly air disaster in Washington, DC, US Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy announced. The news comes after CNN reported that the Federal Aviation Administration fired hundreds of probationary employees who maintain critical air traffic control infrastructure." https://www.theverge.com/news/... TheVerge also noted "And the agency itself lacked a permanent head at the time of the crash — mostly because Musk had a hand in ousting the last administrator after the FAA fined SpaceX for failing to submit safety data."

(Makes me wonder how SpaceX would approach the Air Traffic Control mission: " 'Rapid unscheduled collisions' until we figure it out?")
