The Trump presidency is suddenly addressing a problem that has plagued the country’s air traffic control system for centuries. Sean Duffy, the director of transportation, made the announcement on Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning that a “brand-new state-of-the-art system” will be in place to exchange a largely intact infrastructure on Fox & Friends.

Hardy explained what will happen and why in the coming days in an official news.
We use copper wires and floppy disks, Duffy claimed,” The program we use is horrible, the way it is.” He acknowledged that” we’re seeing the holes of age” while reassured the general public that the present system was secure.
The reform will introduce “brand new sensor, brand new stations for air traffic controllers,” transitioning from” metal lines to fibre lines,” and update outdated technology.
The changes won’t prevent it.  ,
According to Duffy,” We gonna have receptors on the airports so they don’t have to have in the castle and watch with binoculars.” The controllers ‘ windows are frequently obstructed, according to the author. They will be able to view the tarmac where jets are.
Duffy emphasized the need for quickness in putting these modifications into effect. He cited the administrative and financial obstacles that have long slowed progress as evidence that” we don’t realize that we’ve had a problem with air traffic control, but it takes too long.” ” Technology changes, cash shifts, and administration changes. So we must complete this task very quickly. Therefore, we must receive the entire payment honest from the Congress.
The government is even taking lessons from the government. According to Duffy,” We’re getting assistance from Southwest,” the airline recently completed a” full revamp” of its structure in less than two and a half years. The Department of Transportation is bringing in” some of the best and brightest minds who have done it in the past” to maintain a successful reform. Duffy boldly stated that” we have some Tesla professionals that are helping us, and others that are helping us build, again, this great system.”

Our air traffic control system is showing signs of age. To make things easier for them, we’re going to switch from copper wires to fibre, and we’ll put new controller stations and place sensors on runways. @USDOT is putting everything in its power to complete this redesign in record time. twitter.com/Hu9tk7DdQU— Secretary Sean Duffy ( @SecDuffy ) March 19, 2025
This energy focuses on maintaining America’s atmosphere travel system, which is safe, effective, and economical, not just about updating outdated technology. Many professionals in the sector have long warned that the state is at a risk if its current system is outdated in comparison to countries with more advanced systems already in place. The Trump presidency is modernizing weather go in the United States by taking quick action right away.
Despite recent accidents, air traffic control has been in the news this season, but issues have been known for years. Near loses occurred more than once a year in 2023, as PJ Media originally reported.
Current and former air traffic control whistleblowers claim that the FAA’s obsession with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion ( DEI ) initiatives has resulted in the hiring of qualified personnel, who are most likely to have been involved in the tragic midair collision at Reagan National Airport in January. These plans based on DEI were first introduced under the Obama administration. Biden reinstated them after President Trump reversed them during his first term, placing diversification above ability once more at the top of his list.

The organization’s “less ready workforce” is a result of the drive for diversity quotas, according to the controllers, which in turn lowered hiring standards. This demonstrates a risky pattern, where requirements are sacrificed in order to achieve statistical goals, putting the safety of the people at risk.
By reducing difficulties, reducing gas waste, and improving overall travel efficiency, the Trump administration’s effort to modernize air traffic control has important advantages for both people and airlines. This forward-thinking approach places the government’s long-term needs first, utilizing private sector ability to advance the country. It’s an expense that goes beyond just infrastructure to include regional stability, economic development, and the safety of the millions of people who rely on air travel every day. The government’s swift motion seeks to resolve a long-standing problem that was meant to be addressed years ago.
