Federal Aviation Administration's

Airport Certification Program:

Has It Resulted

In Safe Airports?




Department of Transportation


Although the certification program has im-
proved airport safety, the standards have been
developed without benefit of detailed re-
search and analysis of their effect (1) in
improving safety or (2) on the costs to imple-
ment.
This lack of objective bases for the standards
made it impossible for GAO to determine
whether the airport certification program has
resulted in an adequate level of safety.
Airports serving only   commuter airlines
should be included in the program. The
Department of Transportation said it does not
have legal authority to include them, but
GAO believes it does have the authority.
