Federal Aviation Administration

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is a governmental body of the United States with powers to regulate all aspects of civil aviation in that nation as well as over its surrounding international waters. Its powers include the construction and operation of airports, air traffic management, the certification of personnel and aircraft, and the protection of U.S. assets during the launch or re-entry of commercial space vehicles. Powers over neighboring international waters were delegated to the FAA by authority of the International Civil Aviation Organization.

Description
Created in August 1958, the FAA replaced the former Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) and later became an agency within the US Department of Transportation.

Members

 * FAA Investigator #1: An unnamed FAA investigator was on the scene where a skydiver named Holly White impaled herself on a tree branch after a poorly timed dive. The investigator was a bit sardonic in his job and noted how the victim is a shoo-in for a Darwin Award.


 * Fenton: Fenton was an agent of the FAA who had submitted a letter to the Avengers stipulating that they could no longer maintain their Quinjets within the boundaries of New York City. Captain America went to Fenton's office to appeal the notice, but Fenton was resolute, citing that vehicles that operated off the powerful jet fuel that Quinjets utilized posed to great of a risk to public safety.
