A4A backs nomination of Huerta as FAA head

Airlines for America (A4A), the industry trade organization for the leading U.S. airlines, has commended the Obama administration on the nomination of Michael P. Huerta as Federal Aviation Administration Administrator.
"Michael Huerta's proven leadership and clear grasp of the imperatives of NextGen make him an outstanding choice at this important time to further drive safety and improved efficiency of our nation's airspace," said A4A President and CEO Nicholas E. Calio. "The aviation industry is one of the highest contributors to our nation's economy and workforce, and we urge the Senate to move swiftly on a nomination so important to the traveling public."
