The FAA administrator oversees the variety of matters the agency is responsible for in regulating U.S. airspace and reports to the secretary of transportation. The FAA currently regulates commercial airspace and aviation safety, operates air traffic control, and researches and develops aviation solutions
My source on the above is the Washington Examiner.
He would report to Mayor Pete, isn't that a laugh. Due to your lack of exposure Cliffy, you are obviously unaware the pit falls of someone running any entity where they have zero understanding of the basics
of what they are administrating. Such a person often has no clue if their subordinates are competent and performing at an acceptable level.
The latest shining example is the NTSB blaming the East Palestine train derailment on wheel bearing failure. Tanker and freight cars do not have wheel bearings, who the hell passed that on? The board of the NTSB should
at least have someone on it that played with a train set as a kid. Both parties need to stop appointing people that don't have basic knowledge of what they are overseeing.
