Comment: DOA. The Senate was smart enough to remove it from their agenda. It is often said, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." There is nothing wrong with the FAA or its ATC system. Best on the globe. 
Funny that Representative Shuster did not recuse himself. It has been reported that his girlfriend is the senior lobbyist for the Airlines For America (A4A), an anti-consumer airline trade group that colludes to maximize industry profits. They have long wanted to control the ATC system to their benefit and Shuster proposes they control a new ATC board of directors. Very bad for general aviation, which would assume a large burden of the system taxes they would certainly shift away from themselves. The airlines cannot be trusted- what is good for them, is not good for American or global travelers. Leave the crown jewel of the FAA intact.
