United Flight Saves Fuel With Green Tech from the SF Chronicle. The technology being better weather information received (translation, improve the FAA communications, control, and weather systems) that enabled a more efficient flight and landing. Part of the problem is the FAA has two missions, one is making sure flights are safe, and the other for the ground control.
There also may be the issue that the FAA has been collecting money to upgrade the system and has not spent it, which helps the treasury department. I remember something about that, but I can't find any references.
