Babbitt Asked For Leave After Informing Administration
Monday
This was not a good weekend for FAA Administrator Randy Babbitt.
Late Saturday night, the FAA Boss was observed driving in the wrong
lane in Fairfax City, VA, a mistake that appears to be a
costly one as the FAA leader has now been placed on leave after
being charged with driving DWI. No accident took place and Babbitt
was alone at the time of his arrest. Babbitt, one of the most
positively received FAA Admins in recent memory, was released on
his personal recognizance after being taken to the local jail and
ANN has learned (via the AP) that he has been placed on leave from
the FAA.
