Default FAA Nominee Hits A Snag




FAA Administrator Nominee Dickson Defends Disclosures
- June 27, 2019

FAA Administrator nominee Steve Dickson defended
his decision against disclosing a whistleblower
complaint during the congressional vetting process,
saying he was not named as a party to the complaint.
Dickson further said that, given the information at
the time, he believes certain moves made by his
former employer, Delta Air Lines, were appropriate.

But that nomination hit a stumbling block when,
after the Senate Commerce Committee confirmation
hearing in May, information came to light that a
whistleblower had filed a complaint against Delta,
alleging that after raising safety questions to
airline leadership, she was subsequently ordered
to undergo a psychiatric evaluation that ultimately
led to the loss of pilot privileges. Two subsequent
evaluations disagreed with the initial evaluations
and the pilot returned to duty. The complaint was
filed against Delta, but it mentions Dickson’s
involvement in receiving the safety concerns.
