Military Air Traffic Control Transition Act

This bill changes the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 to add new duties for an existing joint aviation employment training working group. The group would have to develop recommendations, in consultation with the unions that represent FAA air traffic controllers, on moving civilian air traffic control specialists from the Department of Defense into air traffic control jobs at the Department of Transportation. These jobs include controllers, air traffic managers, and supervisors. The group would also have to identify barriers in training, phraseology, systems, technology, and credentials that affect the FAA's ability to hire military and Defense Department air traffic controllers, and include its recommendations in its report.
