Airline experts will testify before a Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee panel Tuesday morning on air safety as close calls and other recent aviation accidents have highlighted issues with the system.

Antiquated technology and air traffic control staffing shortages have contributed to the concerns.

Witnesses include former New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (D), who serves as president and CEO of Airlines for America, Air Line Pilots Association President Jason Ambrosi and others.

The hearing is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EDT.
