The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is responsible for promoting safety in civil air transportation. This report focuses on two questions: what has the FAA's overall record been in responding to, agreeing with, and implementing significant recommendations concerning aviation safety from 1990 through 1994? To what extent have specific recommendations in the areas of aircraft certification, airline inspections, oversight of foreign carriers, and safety on runways been fully implemented? Charts and tables.
