Industry opposes manifest rule changes
General aviation groups got in under the wire last month in commenting on proposed new rules for general aviation aircraft traversing U.S.

General aviation groups got in under the wire last month in commenting on proposed new rules for general aviation aircraft traversing U.S. border crossings. Most of their concerns are centered on how aircraft operators should submit manifest information.

Although NBAA helped develop the “Guide for Private Fliers” that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released in September, the association said, “We believe that the bureau’s proposal to substantially change how international private aircraft interact with federal authorities has raised some significant issues that if left unaddressed could cause substantial harm to users of private aircraft.”
