Lessons learned from the #COVID19 pandemic show the need for a clear plan to prep for future health emergencies.
Today, @RepDonBeyer & I introduced a bill to bring agencies, aviation workers & stakeholders together to coordinate response & keep workforce & passengers safe.

An important article about how to keep us safe when we fly. I know one of the authors well. Capt. Larry Rooney is a colleague who spent 18 months working on the NTSB investigation of #Flight1549. bit.ly/3cK8Yvw @dallasnews @capapilots @WeAreALPA @AlliedPilots @ipapilots

Grateful to have the support of @CAPApilots, a trade association that represents roughly 30,000 pilots and many pilots unions. Their expertise, led by their President Captain Larry Rooney, was invaluable.

I look forward to getting the Aviation Subcommittee back to its forward-looking agenda of ensuring aviation safety, fostering innovation in US airspace, improving US competitiveness in the global marketplace, & enhancing the air travel experience for passengers @TransportDems

“By 2026, 42% of the pilots at the largest airlines will retire. American, Delta, United and Southwest will need 44,000 pilots in the next 12 years to replace retirements and accommodate a 1% growth rate, far less than the anticipated of 3% which would require 65,000 pilots.”

The immediate effects of fatigue have the potential to compromise flight safety, but what effect does chronic fatigue have on the mental and physical well-being of pilots in the long term? blog.balpa.org/Blog/April-20…

Having only one pilot in any commercial aircraft flies in the face of evidence and logic. Every safety protocol we have is predicated on having two pilots work seamlessly together as an expert team cross-checking and backing each other up. bit.ly/2HY4kvt via @AVweb

....when you have only 3 min between the House & Senate meetings on H.R. 2150 "Flags of Convenience" & Cargo Carve-Out, you still need to stop and enjoy the beautiful moment.

Per @Morning_Transpo, @SenJohnThune said it’s “more than likely” he’ll have to drop his pilot training language from #S1405, the FAA reauthorization bill.

Pilot training requirements are an area in which @realdonaldtrump should continue to be "very strict on commercial aviation." thehill.com/policy/transport…
