  • 2021-03842 — Amendment and Establishment of Area Navigation (RNAV) Routes; South-Central Florida Metroplex Project
    Type:Rule
    Citation:86 FR 10808
    Reading Time:about 12 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a final rule that changes two existing low altitude RNAV (area navigation) routes and introduces nine new ones to support the South-Central Florida Metroplex Project. These changes aim to reduce reliance on ground-based navigation systems and improve efficiency in the National Airspace System. The adjustments, effective April 22, 2021, are intended to enhance air traffic procedures without significant regulatory or environmental impacts.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA made some changes to the flight paths planes use in the sky above South-Central Florida so that planes can fly more smoothly using satellites instead of relying too much on ground signals. This helps planes get where they're going faster and more efficiently.

  • 2024-27782 — FAA Requests Public Comment on Possible Delegation of Certain Air Operator Certification Tasks
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:89 FR 96621
    Reading Time:about 6 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking public comments on expanding its delegation program to include new certification tasks for commuter and on-demand operators, except those with 10 or more passengers. This could involve individual designees or organizations authorized with specific functions under the Organization Designation Authorization (ODA). The FAA aims to streamline its certification process to handle increased demand and improve efficiency. Comments must be submitted by February 3, 2025, and should address potential certification tasks, barriers to success, and suggestions for implementation.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is asking people what they think about letting certain trusted helpers do more jobs, like checking small planes and taxis, to save time; they want people's ideas until next February.
