After two years of debate in Congress, proposals to privatize the ATC system in the U.S. were left out of Congress’s 2016 funding measures for the FAA, but NBAA President and CEO Ed Bolen warned the issue will return, in remarks he made at today’s No Plane No Gain Media Kick-Off Breakfast at NBAA-BACE. Bolen was joined by NBAA Chairman Paul Anderson and their General Aviation Manufacturers Association counterparts in a discussion of regulatory challenges, economic trends, emissions policies and more.
