  • Safety Regulation of the Concorde Supersonic Transport: Realistic Confinement of the National Environmental Policy Act*
    Safety Regulation Of The Concorde Supersonic Transport: Realistic Confinement Of The National Environmental Policy Act* ROBERT B. DONIN** INTRODUCTION Rarely if ever in the past has government provided the forum for so dramatic a confrontation between man's technological ingenuity and his concern for environmental quality as in the contmversy over the Concorde Supersonic Transport. Depending upon the observer's point of view; Concorde has been depicted as both an "elegant"1 delta-wing airplane and a "bird of prey;"2 as "one of the most positive steps forward made in aviation . since the industrial revolution"3 and "the Edsel of the airways;"4 as a symbol of progress and a symbol of environmental degradation. On February 4, 1976, supporters of Concorde scored a partial victory when Secretary of Transportation William T. Coleman, Jr. issued a 61- page decision authorizing British Airways and Air France to conduct a 16-month demonstration of Concorde service with four flights per day to * The views contained herein are those of the author and not the Department of Transportation. ** Special Assistant to the General Counsel, Office of the Secretary ofTransportation B.A., Colgate University, 1971: J.D., University of Pennsylvania Law Sr.hool, 1974. 1.

  • Weaknesses in FAA's Certification and Delegation Processes Hindered Its Oversight of the 737 MAX 8
    Weaknesses in FAA’s Certification and Delegation Processes Hindered Its Oversight of the 737 MAX 8 Report No. AV2021020 February 23, 2021 Weaknesses in FAA’s Certification and Delegation Processes Hindered Its Oversight of the 737 MAX 8 Requested by the Secretary of Transportation; the Chairmen of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure and its Subcommittee on Aviation; the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies; and Senator Richard Blumenthal Federal Aviation Administration | AV2021020 | February 23, 2021 What We Looked At The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has historically maintained an excellent safety record. However, two fatal accidents in 2018 and 2019 involving the Boeing 737 MAX 8 raised concerns about FAA’s oversight and certification of civilian aircraft manufactured and operated in the United States. At the request of Secretary of Transportation Elaine L. Chao and several members of Congress, our office has undertaken a series of reviews related to FAA’s certification of the MAX and its safety oversight, including the Agency’s oversight of Boeing’s Organization Designation Authorization (ODA). Our overall audit objective was to determine and evaluate FAA’s process for certifying the Boeing 737 MAX series of aircraft. In this report, we focused on assessing (1) the effectiveness of FAA’s guidance and processes for managing the certification of the 737 MAX 8 and (2) FAA’s oversight of the Boeing ODA. What We Found While FAA and Boeing followed the established certification process for the 737 MAX 8, we identified limitations in FAA’s guidance and processes that impacted certification and led to a significant misunderstanding of the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), the flight control software identified as contributing to the two accidents.
