The planned March 31 departure of FAA Administrator Steve Dickson comes as much of the agency’s leadership team has turned over in the past year. His departure from the FAA is just one of a handful. Since last year, the agency has received a new deputy administrator (Bradley Mims), associate administrator for airports (Shannetta Griffin), associate administrator for aviation safety (Billy Nolen), and chief counsel (Marc Nichols). In addition, FAA COO Teri Bristol is retiring at the end of the month. But for business and general aviation, Dickson is leaving an “enduring legacy” in steering the agency through a difficult time.
