US House to Debate Major Aviation Safety Overhaul
U.S. House committees are considering a comprehensive new aviation safety bill aimed at overhauling federal oversight. The proposed legislation follows recommendations from an expert panel created after two fatal Boeing 737 MAX crashes. Prompted by recent incidents like the Alaska Airlines mid-air blowout, the bill seeks to modernize FAA systems and address human factors in aircraft certification. Key provisions also include mandates for 25-hour cockpit voice recorders and new cabin air quality standards to enhance passenger and crew safety.
