The nation's top aviation official talked about the safety risks of complacency in a Senate hearing Wednesday, and said the Federal Aviation Administration is juggling three competing systems of controlling US airspace.Billy Nolen, the acting FAA administrator, appeared before the Senate Commerce Committee to address the software outage that halted flight departures nationwide last month, a near miss between an American Airlines plane and a Delta Air Lines plane on a JFK airport runway last month, another close call between a FedEx cargo plane and a Southwest plane in Austin, Texas, earlier this month, and other recent safety problems plaguing the aviation industry.
