NACA Opposes Senator Boxer’s Cargo Pilot Amendment
The National Air Carrier Association (NACA) issued a letter to the leadership of the Senate as well as the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation requesting they oppose Senator Barbara Boxer’s (D-CA) amendment to the FAA Reauthorization bill requiring cargo airline pilots meet the same flight time and rest requirements as passenger airline pilots. Our letter details the substantive reasons these two categories of pilots needs to be handled differently.
