NATA Pleased by HR 3482 and HR 6270 Passage in House

Another Stakeholder Applauds Aeronautical Legislation

The National Air Transportation Association has also lended its voice to the chorus of aviation stakeholders happy with the passage of 2 pieces of legislation. 

The recently passed bills, if approved by the Senate, will aim to improve the rollout of the soon-to-be-ubiquitous Advanced Air Mobility ecosystem and bolster education in the vein of aviation workforce replenishment. 

The AAM bill will help to organize the spectrum of industry preparation, hopefully curtailing developmental waste and adding the framework needed to collaborate, innovate, and communicate between a variety of manufacturers and policy makers. Ideally, the bill would lay the groundwork needed to standardize certain aspects of infrastructure, preventing another format war between competing AAM manufacturers and standards.

Additionally, the bill offers $25 million in 2-year pilot program for the vertiport and infrastructure development. The grants will hopefully go to helping states prepare their economies for the growing sector of aviation and easing the transition into smaller, sustainable aircraft as they make their way to market. Similarly, the bills also set up a chartered, private entity for the promotion of civil aviation and aeronautical employment. If passed, a series of scholarships, programs, and curriculum updates would be created with a goal of bringing up the next generation of aviation workers. 

“By passing the National Center for the Advancement of Aviation Act and the Advanced Aviation Infrastructure Modernization (AAIM) Act, the Committee signaled its support of Advanced Air Mobility innovation and implementation, as well as its commitment to fostering and expanding our nation’s skilled aviation workforce. NATA applauds today’s progress on these two key pieces of legislation, which address some of our industry’s most pressing concerns. We thank the bipartisan sponsors in both chambers of Congress for their leadership in charting a comprehensive path forward for future aviation professionals and supporting our industry’s growth and progress,” stated NATA's Managing Director of Legislative Affairs and Industry Relations Karen Huggard.
