As the aviation industry awaits the outcome of tariffs, NBAA is encouraging members to provide comments on a U.S. Department of Commerce investigation on the impacts of imports of commercial aircraft, engines, and parts on national security. The Commerce Department is taking comments through June 3 on the investigation being conducted under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, specifically 15 CFR 705.4.

“A strong industrial workforce, healthy national economy, and a safe national airspace system are vital to our national security,” said NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen. “The U.S. leads the world in aerospace manufacturing and has maintained the largest positive trade balance of any sector for several decades, thanks to 45 years of reciprocal tariff-free trade under the 1979 Agreement on Trade in Civil Aircraft.”
