On this week's episode, we break into the Air Traffic Control sleep study that was hidden by the government for over 4 years. We deliver some facts from the study, and some opinions that are just mine, and not endorsed. After we look a potential fix, although not related, in remotely operated control towers. Its an awesome concept!
