Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Our air transportation system is complex and we need to ensure that our airspace continues to be the safest aviation system in the world... To maintain this global gold standard in safety, the FAA must have the stability and direction provided for by a multi-year reauthorization bill. If the FAA is not promptly reauthorized, the national airspace system will not have the proper staffing and infrastructure to keep aviation moving."
