PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SUBJECT: UNION FILES PROTEST OF FAA CONTRACT AWARD TO LOCKHEED MARTIN

Wheaton, MD�Kate Breen, the President of the National Association of Air Traffic Specialists (NAATS), filed a Contest with the Federal Aviation Administration�s (FAA) Office of Dispute Resolution for Acquisition on behalf of all of the employees affected by the FAA�s recent decision to contract out air traffic control jobs to Lockheed Martin.

The contract was awarded to Lockheed Martin on February 1, 2005. Ms. Breen alleges that the FAA�s evaluation was flawed, does not represent the best value to the Government, and will have a serious detrimental impact on the employees� jobs and benefits. The Agency Tender Official of the FAA also separately filed a Contest against the award to Lockheed Martin on March 11, 2005. Flight Service Controllers are crucial to the safe and secure function of the nation�s airspace and national security. During every national crisis Flight Service has provided professional, safe and exemplary service. During the barrage of hurricanes across the southeast last year, the FAA closed air traffic facilities in the region with the exception of Flight Service. Many of these Controllers were directly affected by the damage of the hurricanes, yet they remained on duty and performed their jobs.

The government federalized employees who check passengers and baggage at airports. The threat of terrorism is still very real and these jobs should not be turned over to a private company whose focus is profit and not public safety.
