Today, the U.S. House of Representatives, passed a long-term Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reauthorization. Congressman Sam Graves, (MO06), released the following statement:
"As a professional pilot and user of the system, I can say with certainty that today's passage will give the aviation community long-term stability -- a much needed development after years of short-term extensions. Moreover, we are ensuring that all who rely on our airspace can continue flying safely, securely and freely. America has always been a leader and pioneer in aviation since the days of the Wright Brothers and passage of this bill ensures that continues."
