Elon Musk falsely accuses Verizon of putting US air safety at 'serious risk'

WASHINGTON - Billionaire presidential adviser Elon Musk on Thursday falsely accused Verizon, a rival contractor of his SpaceX Starlink system, of putting U.S. air safety at risk through a communications system that is actually operated by L3Harris.

Musk admitted that he made a mistake when he said Verizon operated the Federal Aviation Administration's communications system.

"Correction: the ancient system that is rapidly declining in capability was made (by) L3Harris. The new system that is not yet operational is from Verizon," Musk posted on social media.

Verizon, which operates the largest U.S. wireless network, rejected Musk's initial accusation with a statement that it has only begun work on the system.

The L3 Harris managers for the FTI contract have very good technical skills. The problem is they have poor management skills. A tester should be able to test without interruption from inbound calls. Most of the customer service phone support personnel quit and the testers do that job. Indicative of inept management, needs to change. Read about the Harris FTI outages and you’ll agree. Also the L3Harris field technicians are lucky if they know a smart jack from a 66 block. The truth hurts.

Wonder if Kubasik regrets that a-s-kissing letter to DOGE now.

Writing a letter to a man who would take every contract the company has if it was up to him just put you in his sights.

Trusted Disrupter? More like trusted to bust the budget and not deliver anything on time or budget.

"Correction: the ancient system that is rapidly declining in capability was made (by) L3Harris. "
That quote says it all. It is indicative of the L3 Harris product portfolio. It is also an indication of the future of this failing company. You have two choices; you can wait to get laid off and hope someone will take pity on you, or you can get off your a-s, dust off your resume and be a man about it. Get a real job.

And that's why L3HARRIS loses contracts to competitors . Because they arrogantly think they have no competition. SNC and Verizon know differently. And so do the growing ranks of former L3HARRIS employees.
