In his remarks at AirVenture on July 26, 2012, acting FAA Administrator, Michael P. Huerta, focused on NextGen benefits for both commercial and GA users, citing the agency’s mission to accelerate their arrival.  Huerta noted that aircraft equipped with NextGen technology are involved in 47 percent fewer accidents than those without, according to the FAA’s analysis.

We are closely following the legal and regulatory developments regarding the FAA’s ongoing implementation of NextGen.
