President Donald Trump supports moves to separate management of air traffic from the industry regulator FAA, possibly putting it under the control of a private company. Airlines which pay for air traffic control hope a new system will cut flight times, but aviation experts are divided on the new plan and many claim it will fail. Michael J Boyd, the President of Boyd Aviation, in Evergreen Colorado, tells the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Russell Padmore the air traffic control system is outdated, but politicians do not understand how the business works and do not know how to fix it.
