Does this mean the previous "manager" has been sacked for not doing his/her job?
The FAA has an "acting" -
Administrator
Deputy Administrator
Chief of Staff
Associate Administrator Airports
Assistant Administrator Finance and Management
Assistant Administrator Next Gen
And on and on. The previous manager for Engines and Propeller Standards died a couple years ago. Ms Grant has been in that office all this century. They probably don't want to make her position official as she'd go up a notch in pay.
