NBAA Welcomes Strategically Focused Changes to FAA Structure

National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) President and CEO Ed Bolen welcomes organizational changes that ensure the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is strategically positioned to meet today’s aviation challenges, advance U.S. aviation leadership in the future and bolster the work to enhance safety, the industry’s highest priority.

The comprehensive reorganization was unveiled today by Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford, who noted that the agency-wide overhaul is the largest in its history.

“The FAA’s new structure makes the changes required to increase operational efficiency, foster innovation and empower the bold action needed to build an aviation system that in many ways will redefine air transportation,” Bolen said.

“More than just a ‘re-org,’ this plan re-envisions what America’s aviation system is, and how it can best serve all stakeholders, now and in the decades to come,” Bolen added. “NBAA joins with the rest of the aviation community in commending Secretary Duffy and Administrator Bedford for setting forth a bold plan for a new era in aerospace.”
