'Loud and clear,' says Huerta
Third class medical reform has FAA's attention
THE FAA HAS SENT A PROPOSAL to reform the third class medical certification process to the Department of Transportation (USDOT) for review,
according to FAA Administrator Michael Huerta. Huerta said the FAA
has heard the general aviation community "loud and clear" on the need
for reform. The proposed rulemaking must be vetted by both the USDOT
and the White House Office of Management and Budget before details
can be revealed and opened for public comment.
Meanwhile, AOPA continue its work with Congress on moving the
General Aviation Pilot Protection Act (GAPPA) forward. It had 129 House
and 17 Senate co-sponsors when Congress began its summer home work
period. AOPA advocacy staff continues to leverage every available opportunity to keep pressure on the FAA and will not let up until rulemaking is
completed or the legislation is signed into law. "While we acknowledge
that rulemaking is moving through the normal FAA process, the path
toward reform has been far too slow," AOPA President Mark Baker said.
"We have 10 years of data proving that pilots can fly safely without going
through the costly and time-consuming process of getting a third class
medical certificate. AOPA will continue working closely with Congress
to keep up the pressure and get this done. This issue is too important
to our members and the entire aviation community to let it get bogged
down in bureaucracy."

BEING AN AOPA AIRPORT Support
Network volunteer means easy
access to AOPA's leaders, through
meetings at regional aviation
events and dedicated staff support for volunteers. Events feature
the ASN team and regional managers, as well as visits from AOPA
President Mark Baker.
Recently, Baker met with
Colorado ASN volunteers Steve
Ducoff (COS), Bill Totten (FTG),
Babette Andre (BJC), Steve Wolf
(FNL), Dave Cole (EEO), and
Charlie Aden (18V) at the annual
Colorado Pilots Association
Aviation Expo and Fly-in. AOPA
Northwest Mountain Regional
Manager David Ulane hosted an
ASN volunteer breakfast meeting,
where these volunteers shared
their experiences with Baker, and
heard about key AOPA initiatives
directly from the top.
These active volunteers have
played key roles on critical issues
in their communities, and made
use of the ASN program as a
resource to help promote and protect their airports.
