San Carlos Airport faces potential loss of air traffic controllers due to a pay dispute over locality pay.

San Carlos Airport in California may lose its air traffic controllers due to a pay dispute. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) awarded a new contract to Robinson Aviation (RVA), which does not include locality pay for the high cost of living in the Bay Area. Current controllers have resigned due to lower pay offers. The airport is working with Congressman Kevin Mullin to secure FAA staffing or return to the previous contractor, Serco. Operations will continue, but concerns over safety exist.
