- Robotbeat 5y agoI honestly think there should be civil consequences for the FAA slow-rolling the sunsetting of leaded avgas. Red tape is causing very real harm to vast numbers of people.
- brendoelfrendo 5y agoAs with many problems with hard-to-see externalities, I think the FAA can't win here. If a plane falls out of the sky because of a fast-tracked approval, or people go out of business because of a fast-tracked ban, then the FAA is the bad guy. The number of people with the ability to assess the impact of atmospheric lead is much smaller.
