The AOPA article made it to the ATC forum under the chatter section.

It's good that the AOPA wrote about us but the question is what do they plan on doing?

Did anyone look at the per-site savings numbers on that document? The figures cannot be correct. The site at which I am currently working has a pay rate quite a bit higher than my former site; yet, my former site is listed as having annual savings of $10,000 higher than my current site! Something is fishy with those numbers...

Something is fishy with those numbers... Those savings are probably the contractor monthly price for the site multipled by 5, since they are eliminating may-september on this fiscal year. I doubt the FAA is assuming any increase in costs due to equipment moves and it doesn't sound like the controllers are getting a pay increase to take on extra duties.

Yea, those numbers are totally bloated. I am in group 4 and there is no way they will save almost $60,000 in one month!
