Once that's done then they'll move on to min. hours for airlines.
Then again, I can't figure out the difference between S.915, 3371, and 1451. They all have pretty much the same content.
Based on your comments, I went ack and reread the section on requirements. From my reading, the bill DOES require an ATP, but no later than three years after the enactment of the bill. That's how I read the House bill as well, but if I'm wrong, I know someone will correct me.
