A bipartisan bill known as the FLIGHT Act (S. 1320), or Forward Looking Investment in GA, Hangars and Tarmacs, was introduced in the U.S. Senate June 8. The legislation would give general aviation airports an expedited environmental review process and allow greater flexibility in spending allocated funds on infrastructure projects that will ensure a safer, more effective national network of GA airports.
