AOPA President & CEO Darren Pleasance testified before the U.S. House Aviation Subcommittee, highlighting progress on the 2024 FAA Reauthorization and pressing priorities for general aviation. He cited gains such as expanded BasicMed, a new national DPE office, improved registry privacy and processing, and assurances that 100LL remains available during the transition to unleaded fuels. Lawmakers also probed topics ranging from ADS-B data being used to levy fees, to SAF and unleaded fuel challenges, experimental aircraft safety, and key “watchouts” as ATC modernization moves ahead.
