“San Carlos Airport is the only general aviation airport in the Bay Area with a contracted tower staff, said Alessandro Franco, owner of the San Carlos Flight Center flight school.

The FAA announced Thursday that their contract with Serco was ending on Friday and they had awarded a new contract to Robinson Aviation, a company that specializes in air traffic control. However, their controllers rejected their job offers after the company refused to adjust their pay to account for higher living costs in the Bay Area.

“To maintain the continuity of air traffic control services at San Carlos Airport, we are extending the prior service provider, Serco, for 60 days,” the FAA said in a statement to the Bay Area News Group.
