Not too good for the FAA

The FAA Management idiots looked like a deer in the headlights

Congress's stance toward the industry has shifted from
benevolence after the terrorist attacks in 2001 to a more
combative approach after a string of passenger disruptions
and recent revelations about lax oversight.

Oberstar said on Wednesday that his criticism was "an effort
to get them back on course, to being the gold standard in
the world for aviation safety oversight and maintenance
oversight, and to re-establish a safety mind-set and culture
with the agency, instead of this coddling of the industry."

There has not been a crash of a big jet in the United States
since an American Airlines plane broke up in flight over New
York in November 2001 — a point repeatedly made by federal
administrators and airline executives as proof that the air
system is safe.

That attitude could be dangerous, however, Oberstar said.
"Time passes, and 'Oh, we haven't had an accident, and now
we can be cozy and play patty-cake with the airlines,' " he
said, describing what he fears could be the attitude of the
FAA "As soon as you do that, you lose the enforcement
mind-set, and you lose the sense of the margin of safety."
