US Transportation Secretary Meets Aerospace CEOs to Reform Certification
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy met with aerospace executives to discuss streamlining aircraft certification processes to accelerate innovation and improve international competitiveness.
US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy met with chief executives from Boeing Co., RTX Corp., GE Aerospace, and other major aerospace firms on Wednesday to discuss reforming the aircraft certification process. The discussions focused on streamlining regulator approvals for new aircraft and parts to reduce the time required for testing and documentation.
Secretary Duffy and Federal Aviation Administration chief Bryan Bedford aim to accelerate a process that currently takes years to complete. By reducing these regulatory bottlenecks, the administration seeks to foster faster innovation and enhance the international competitiveness of the United States aerospace sector.
This initiative continues a regulatory trend established under the Biden administration to modernize oversight and remove hurdles for aerospace manufacturers.
