NBAA, GAMA Hope To Streamline Part 91 LOA Process
NBAA, GAMA and FAA working group has formally proposed ways to streamline FAA's letters of authorization process for Part 91 operators.

An FAA and industry working group including NBAA and the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) recently issued a final report to the agency and recommendations to streamline and expedite the process of issuing letters of authorization (LOA) to Part 91 operators for communications, navigation, and surveillance, NBAA announced in an update. “Many members have expressed frustration after taking ownership of a brand new, technologically advanced aircraft and the delay until they are able to fully utilize that aircraft due to the wait for required LOAs,” said NBAA director of flight operations and regulations Brian Koester.
