A bipartisan House committee proposed a bill that would strike down the Obama-era rule that requires airlines to advertise the full price of flights including taxes and other fees.
The FAA is looking at additional actions the aviation community needs to take to maintain its safety record.that would get rid of the Obama-era requirement mandating that airlines show the full price of flights in their advertisements, in addition to changing training requirements for airline pilots.would reauthorize FAA programs over the next five years.
"These protections were hard fought and took years to enact," American Economic Liberties Project expert William McGee told the Associated Press. The bipartisan bill would also allow pilots-in-training to spend 250 hours of training time in simulators rather than actual planes, up from the current allowance of 100 hours. The requirement of having 1,500 hours of training in total would remain in place.
"That rule, like so many federal aviation regulations, is written in blood, literally," Thompson explained. "That regulation came about because of the Colgan Air crash and other crashes that involved experience issues."
