The Next Gen Institute held their annual meeting recently. The importance of instituting Next Gen was hailed by members of Congress as well as current and former FAA Administrators. The discussion about the challenges ahead, current success stories and potential for Next Gen to be a game changer for U.S. aviation is a discussion ALPA will remain focused upon. As Congressman Jerry Costello notes- “ Everyone who believes in NextGen … will have to go to Capitol Hill and tell members of Congress that we need the funding to go forward in a permanent way.”
