> The head of the FAA says it's time to reexamine the longtime practice of delegating some of the agency's oversight responsibilities to Boeing employees, raising the possibility of moving some of those duties to a third party. Third party? I’m no expert, but I reckon the FAA should shift the FAA’s responsibility of Federally Administering the Aviation industry to the FAA. It would probably be a real bummer to have all of that sudden accountability and such, and to be fair I’m sure he didn’t assume he’d have that responsibility when he took the helm at that particular critical government regulatory agency. However, ensuring the safety of airplanes and protecting one of the US’s most important industries from the incompetence of grubby-fingered, greedy, executives might be a worthwhile pursuit.
