National Academy of Sciences report

Reuters reporting on release (as of Wednesday 22 June) of National Academy of Sciences report on the FAA Transport Airplane Risk Assessment Methodology - TARAM - which report was ordered by the Congress as part of its legislative response to the two 737 MAX accidents.

With a nomination for FAA Administrator pending before the Senate, and news reports to some extent favoring the nominee precisely because he is not from within the FAA domain other than a brief stint in airport administration, progress or not-progress for confirmation could get very interesting. Or, does lacking extensive or meaningful experience and familiarity with FAA's administrative functions really constitute a "plus" for solving the agency's recently revealed issues and problems?
