NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: If an air carrier, operating, or repair station certificate is surrendered prior to completion of an enforcement investigation that is based on charges that could be grounds for revocation, the FAA should nonetheless complete the investigation to the extent necessary to document all available facts relating to the fitness of the involved individuals; these facts should be made available to all FAA personnel responsible for granting a future air carrier, operating, or repair station certificate when considering the fitness of the applicant.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The Federal Aviation Administration is asked to complete enforcement investigations even after an air carrier, operating, or repair station certificate is surrendered, if the investigation is based on grounds for revocation. The FAA should document all available facts about the involved individuals' fitness and share those facts with personnel responsible for evaluating future certificate applications.
