We clearly have very different definitions of corruption. Actual aeronautics engineers with hands-on expertise offering advice on how to modernize air safety systems does not fall within my definition of corruption.

> with hands-on expertise

in Air Traffic Control? At SpaceX? Do tell . . .

These aren't the same domains.

That technical nitpick aside, this is a classic business move whereby a preferred and privileged private operator gets exclusive ground floor access to get in on a leech like remora attachment to a spigot of public funds for decades.

That's the corruption part, not the touchy feely first phase "just some experts having a look".
