Dan Elwell was named senior vice president, safety, security and operations for Airlines for America (A4A) in February 2013, and is responsible for leading the advancement of the airline industry’s well-deserved reputation for safety excellence while focusing on streamlining system operations to improve efficiency. Elwell also serves as a liaison on safety, security and operations issues with governmental agencies, including the Departments of Transportation and Homeland Security, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Transportation Security Administration.
Elwell joins A4A from the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA), where he was vice president of civil aviation, responsible for monitoring domestic and international civil aviation policy, and legislative and regulatory activity for the U.S. aerospace manufacturing industry. Prior to that, Elwell served as the FAA assistant administrator for aviation policy, planning and environment. Elwell also spent more than 16 years at American Airlines in varying roles from captain to managing director of international and government affairs.
Elwell is a retired U.S. Air Force pilot, serving on both active and reserve duty. He flew combat missions in Operation Desert Storm among other assignments.

Yes, I was just informed by my contractor that these would be the best people to inform on this impending situation. They are strong lobbyists and I'm sure would like to know what the FAA is trying to pull. I am also attaching a dispute letter that was written to the FAA (and possibly other individuals) by one or more contractors after the biased, self-serving 2009 OES Report. Please use as you will. It's an interesting read, though very logical (which government agencies sometimes are not). skobie Attachments:
