His leadership has been invaluable during this critical time, and our aviation system is safer because of his service. Our nation owes him a debt of gratitude. His oversight of Boeing’s ongoing safety issues has been so important, and whoever replaces him at FAA must continue these important efforts in order to keep the flying public as safe as possible.” -30- | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:07:19Z |
