Damn, can you imagine that being your first day? I assume he had already been through some kind of training or had some assistance in making the decision to ground air traffic

Terrible first day, but he had a senior position at New York TRACON (which controls nearly all air traffic in New York) for years before getting the federal position. He was definitely experienced.

Still a rough first day. I wonder if his relative inexperience in the position had any effect on the outcome of that day

Although it was his first day in charge, Sliney had an over-25-year background in air traffic and management in the FAA.
