Twice a week a pilot aborts a takeoff because other jets are entering an active runway. The FAA’s solution is a 10 hour break between shifts rather than 9 hours.

It won’t work because they’re obviously dealing with a labor shortage. There’s not enough man power to control the traffic. I don’t think a couple minutes here or there will solve the problem either. Perhaps putting a cap on how many flights an airport can manage based on the number of working controllers?
That wouldn’t please the airlines but yeah; flights should halt if there’s no ATC who is legally available.
Please the airlines? The only people who should be concerned about pleasing the airline’s are the employees. You paid for a service and when you paid you were led to believe you would land safely at your destination. The only feelings you should take into consideration are those of the customers. Corporations don’t exist to feel, they exist to extract resources which is what they are doing at the cost of everyone’s safety.
