AOPA President Boyer testifies before Congress
— AOPA President Phil Boyer testified before the
House aviation subcommittee today about the impact current flight
restrictions are having on general aviation pilots and businesses. He talked
about the need to provide relief for the 41,000 aircraft trapped inside the
enhanced Class B airspace and the Washington, D.C. and New York TFR
exclusionary zones. He also talked about the impact on small aviation
businesses such as aerial photographers, banner-towers, traffic reporters and
news aircraft, and told Congress about the need for a financial relief
package to help those businesses harmed by the shut-down of general aviation
operations.
