INSTRUCTIONS:

First, select an event that has impacted the US transportation industry.

Then explain how the event/agency/person impacted the air transportation industry.

And finally, what it means for the future of aviation.

Here is a suggestion on how you could structure this assignment,

1. One sentence on what event you are talking about (max. two sentences).
2. What was / is the problem? (You can simply start this sentence by saying: “The problem was / is…”).
3. Explain how the event/agency/person impacted the air transportation industry – and what measures were introduced to i.e. minimize or maximize this impact.
4. Pick a position and claim what the impact that you have talked about means for the future of aviation – or which (other) ways forward should be chosen.
