After some plane crashes, leaders want to fix the old system for planes and get more people to help.

This can help keep people safe and stop problems like the ones at the Newark airport last week.

Sean Duffy, who works for transport, will show a big plan on Thursday. The plan is to make air travel better. Another group, the FAA, is fixing problems at a place called Newark. They are working fast so there are no problems in other places too.

The old system has problems with many flights every day.

We don't know if the plan will get money.

"We are working on it. We will make it better. We will build a new system for you and your families and the American people," Duffy said.

We don't have many details about the plan.

The system worked okay for a long time, so leaders didn't think about it much. But 'okay' is not good enough for planes because people can get hurt.

But maybe people will like the idea more after two plane accidents: one in Washington and one in Toronto.

There are problems with the system for planes in the country.

The system is old and needs more care.

Old wires caused problems for planes at airports. Sometimes, planes had to stop.

A radar system near Philadelphia stopped working for 30 seconds on April 28.

The FAA will change old wires to new ones. They will also add more lines for information. And they will train more people to work.

It is not clear how long it will take. The man hopes things are better by summer. This is when building work at the airport finishes. Some workers are still away after the problem. This made things worse in another city.

So, fewer planes can go to and from Newark airport to be safe. This means some flights are canceled.

The FAA is making flying safer. They started this in 2003. They have a system that helps planes see each other. This system is important because the helicopter in the crash was not using it.

Duffy wants more people to control planes. He made it faster to learn the job and helped students pass. The people who control planes can get extra money if they don't stop working early.

It is hard to make the system for planes better. The old system must work while they build the new one. Then they must change to the new one easily. This is why they made small changes before.

The problem is old and hard to fix. It needs money and good leaders.
