Genav Groups Urge DOT To Address Airspace Congestion
In a letter to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, six general aviation groups ask for a meeting to discuss solutions to air traffic disruptions.

A coalition of six general aviation organizations on Wednesday sent a letter to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg urging the Department of Transportation to work with them on addressing what they called pressing congestion issues in the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS). The letter—signed by AOPA president Mark Baker, EAA chairman Jack Pelton, GAMA president Pete Bunce, HAI president James Viola, NATA president Timothy Obitts, and NBAA president Ed Bolen—asked for a meeting to discuss how the general aviation community can help ensure the aviation system “best serves all Americans, in cities and towns across the U.S.”
