    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced that it will delay enforcement of its rule on "Foreign Air Operator Certificates Issued by a Regional Safety Oversight Organization" until March 20, 2025. This rule allows the FAA to accept air operator certificates from foreign carriers if issued by a recognized oversight organization. The delay allows for a review to ensure consistency with law and policy under the new administration. This decision aligns with a Presidential directive to consider postponing pending rules for further review.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA is waiting until March 20, 2025, to start making sure foreign airline certificates are okay, so they have more time to double-check everything. They're following directions from the President to take a closer look at new rules.

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a new rule that enables it to accept air operator certificates from Regional Safety Oversight Organizations (RSOOs) for foreign air carriers, as long as the State of the Operator is a member of that organization. This change eases the process for foreign airlines to gain operational specifications for flying to and from the United States. While some industry groups expressed concerns about safety and legal issues, the FAA assures that it will review and validate these certificates to ensure they meet international safety standards. The rule will become effective on January 16, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FAA has made a new rule that lets them accept special flying certificates for foreign airlines from groups that help keep flying safe, as long as the airline's country is part of that group. This means it will be easier for these airlines to fly to the United States, but the FAA will still check to make sure everything is safe.
