"This proposal represents a significant regulatory
change in the conduct of private aircraft operations. We believe
that the 60-day comment period is insufficient in order to provide
TSA with answers to the substantial number of questions posed in
the proposal and to provide sufficient time for community education
and feedback... We believe TSA will benefit substantially by a
60-day extension to the comment period and the use of public
meetings."

Security Administration, sent jointly by the National Business
Aviation Association and Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association,
asking for a 60-day extension period for comments on the TSA's
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking calling for new security restrictions
