Pilot’s Bill of Rights introduced in House

By Janice Wood · January 30, 2012 ·

Reps. Sam Graves (R-Mo.) and Daniel Lipinski (D-Ill.) have introduced a “Pilot’s Bill of Rights” measure to give general aviation pilots more protection and access to information during FAA enforcement actions, according to a report at AOPA.org. A similar bill introduced in 2011 by Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) is pending in the Senate. The story quotes Graves, co-chair of the House GA Caucus, and Lipinski, also a member of the caucus, as saying passage of the bill would improve relations between general aviation pilots, the FAA, and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).
