NATA Members Continue To Support Re-Opening Of DCA To Charter Ops

NATA Boss James K. Coyne is praising four more Members of the US House of Representatives for signing a letter to President Bush encouraging the re-opening of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport to on-demand air charter operations. This latest letter adds to the growing list of more than 60 Members of Congress that have come to support NATA's initiative to re-open America's capital airport to on-demand air charter operations.

The House Members that joined the letter include:

  • Rep. Ernest Istook (R-OK), Chairman, House Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Treasury and Independent Agencies
  • Rep. Sherwood Boehlert (R-NY), Chairman, House Committee on Science and Member, House Committee on Transportation & Infrastructure
  • Rep. Michael Honda (D-CA), Member, House Subcommittee on Aviation
  • Rep. Marion Berry (D-AR), Member, House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security

"We thank all four Members for their support in joining this letter to the President," Coyne stated. "We continue to see resounding support from all Members of the House and Senate on this critical issue and will continue to call upon them for their support until America's capital airport is re-opened to on-demand air charter operations.

"As we embark upon the historic centennial of flight, we hope that our intelligence and security officials within the federal government will heed the advice that these letters offer, demonstrating that this fight will continue until Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport is open to all on-demand air charter operations," Coyne concluded.
