NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
TO THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: Encourage industry safety efforts, such as the Commercial Aviation Safety Team and the General Aviation Joint Steering Committee, to identify, develop, and implement incentives for 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 121, 135, and 91K operators and the general aviation community to freely share pilot weather reports (PIREPs), including braking action or runway condition reports filed as PIREPs, to the National Airspace System to enhance flight safety.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The Federal Aviation Administration is asked to promote industry safety initiatives like the Commercial Aviation Safety Team and the General Aviation Joint Steering Committee. These groups should find, create, and put into practice rewards that encourage Part 121, 135, and 91K operators and the general aviation community to share pilot weather reports (PIREPs), including braking action or runway condition reports, into the National Airspace System. This would improve flight safety.
This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
