Government and Industry Affairs
MARPA keeps its members informed about changes in the regulations that affect them, and also informs them about proposed changes in order to permit them to file the comments with the government. MARPA works with government agencies, like the FAA and EASA, to help promote aircraft parts safety. MARPA also works with the government agencies to help promote reasonable standards of commercial fairness in the industry. MARPA is a frequent contributor to the rule making process in the United States. For example, from 2009 through 2011, MARPA's President (Jason Dickstein) served on the FAA Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) for Safety Management Systems (SMS), and MARPA played a significant role in helping to craft a version of the rule that would most effectively promote safety.
