The Basics: What You Need to Know About FAA Enforcement Actions
An FAA enforcement action is an administrative action taken against a certificate for alleged violations of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs). The FAA has tremendous power, as they not only write the FAR’s, they also interpret and enforce them. The typical steps involved in an enforcement action case include:
- FAA Investigation- USUALLY BEFORE YOU ARE AWARE OF AN ISSUE
- Notification
- FAA action
- FAA order of suspension, revocation, or civil penalty assessment
- Appeal
- Hearing before a National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) judge
- Appeal to the full NTSB
The FAA has tremendous power when it comes to violations of FARs, flying is considered a privilege and NOT A RIGHT, which is why it is so imperative that you obtain assistance from an experienced aviation lawyer at the earliest stage.
