United States DC Circuit

Plaintiffs, former members of the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization, unsuccessfully challenge defendant's decision to hire them, pursuant to its 1993 Recruitment Notice, only at the GS-9 level and corresponding salary range. Because the Recruitment Notice constituted "final agency action," plaintiffs' Administrative Procedure Act claim is time-barred.
