PATCO/NATCA are what?

• A. Controller unions
• B. Government agencies
• C. Airlines
• D. Trade associations

Answer: (A)

PATCO and NATCA are labor organizations that represent air traffic controllers and bargain with the FAA over pay, work hours, and working conditions. PATCO was the historic Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization that led a famous strike in 1981 and is no longer the bargaining representative. NATCA, the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, is the current union representing controllers. They are not government agencies, airlines, or trade associations, but the professional unions that advocate for the interests and rights of controllers.
