In October, Flight Safety Foundation relaunched the aviation Newsmaker Breakfast, a concept introduced by the Aviation Safety Alliance in 2002. These were popular monthly events that featured a notable aviation VIP, a number of aviation reporters and on-the-record questions and answers in an informal setting. In 2006, the Foundation absorbed the Aviation Safety Alliance but wasn't able to continue the Newsmaker Breakfast series - until now. We welcomed U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Administrator Michael Huerta as the speaker for the relaunch, and he took this opportunity to discuss the FAA's new compliance philosophy and how this policy complements safety management systems. The Foundation endorsed the compliance philosophy in a statement to the news media, and our statement can be viewed on the FSF website.
