A provision in the House FAA reauthorization bill that greenlights residential through-the-fence (RTTF) access agreements at general aviation airports has drawn opposition from the National Air Transportation Association (NATA).

NATA is concerned that the provision in the “FAA Reauthorization and Reform Act of 2011” (H.R. 658) threatens the federal investment in the nation’s public-use airports and jeopardizes the businesses at those airports.
