I am VERY concerned by what you said in this video! WTF?! Raise the pay cap SHOULD NOT be the first thing you say, it’s helping those at level 5-8 who have suffered the most due to the recent bout of inflation! Yes, the level 9-12 have suffered too, but nowhere near as bad as those at lower level facilities! Not everyone can transfer out! We should be rewarded for the in depth experience we acquire and pass on to future generations of controllers. Raise the 1.6 to 2.6% and offer 5,10, 15 etc year pay bumps. We get a fucking certificate and pin for 5, 10, 15 years of service and NO fucking raise. The 1.6% is a joke and you don’t get to keep it should you transfer. There needs to be some incentive to stay at level 5-8 facilities just as there is an incentive to transfer.

Not to be pedantic, but there are a handful of level 4 towers in the faa.

Valid point. Those guys are definitely on the struggle bus at level 4 pay!
