Aero-News Quote of the Day

“On behalf of U.S. airports, I applaud ASCE for conducting such a comprehensive assessment of the nation’s infrastructure. The report clearly shows that we can no longer rely on the status quo funding system and the time is now to increase or eliminate the cap on the Passenger Facilities Charge (PFC). ACI-NA has long advocated for policies that provide flexible, adequate funding sources for infrastructure improvements needed to ensure the safety and security of air travelers as well as to modernize infrastructure in order to build a competitive future for a competitive nation." Source: ACI-NA president and CEO Greg Principato, on the release of the ASCE report on U.S. infrastructure.
