The FAA has quietly decide to loosen the stringent
fuel-tank safety regulations written after the fuel
tank explosion of TWA800.
quietly
I thought that the FAA coulld not relax any regulation without public comment from knowlegeable folks like yourself.
Have you checked the Federal Register to see if they are asking for comment before deciding what is in the best interests of the public?
Or is it possible that what you are refering is not a regulation?
could you post more specifics and sources about what you are refering?
