Description

Provides an in-depth examination of our gov’t. & its processes & makes clear how our informed participation is crucial to gov’ts. serving both the individual & the Amer. people as a whole. On May 20, 1926, aviation in the U.S. became federally regulated with the creation of the Aeronautics branch of the Commerce Dept. From the beginning, its duties included implementing safety regulations & providing for the development of airways & airports. As the aviation industry continued to grow, the U.S. gov’t. established the Fed. Aviation Admin. (FAA) as it operates today. The primarily responsibility of the FAA is to ensure the safety of the skies. Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the FAA faces the challenge of maintaining the nation’s faith in air travel. Photos.
