The General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) represents over fifty U.S. manufacturers of fixed-wing aircraft, engines, avionics, and other aircraft components. Operators flying aircraft produced by GAMA-member companies currently provide commercial (scheduled and non-scheduled) and non-commercial air service at LaGuardia, including flights to/from large, medium, small, non-hub and general aviation airports. Accordingly, GAMA members are impacted by any rule, policy or procedure that restricts or limits an operator?s access to LaGuardia, or rations/allocates LaGuardia?s capacity.
1) DOT Must Carefully Consider Solutions to LGA?s Delay Problems.
2) LGA Is Unique -- But DOT Inadequately Recognizes The Characteristics That Make It So.
3) The Unique Characteristics At LGA Warrant Continued Short-Term Rationing Or Restraint Of Demand.
4) Maintaining At Least Six Slots Per Hour For Non-Scheduled Operations Is Essential.
5) Non-Scheduled Operators Should Be Allowed To Use Any Unused Slots.
GAMA appreciates the opportunity to comment on these important issues, and looks forward to submitting comments in ?Phase 2?.
