NTSB Chair News Conference on National Defense Authorization Act and Helicopter Safety
National Transportation Safety Board Chair Jennifer Homendy held a news conference on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and helicopter safety recommendations.
Homendy said the department opposes Section 373 of the NDAA, explaining that the bill would reverse changes implemented by Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy following the January 29 mid-air collision at Reagan National Airport. She also noted that the bill would allow military training missions to continue in Washington, D.C., airspace without key safety reforms.
