The FAA today joined with the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA), and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) together with Brazil’s Ministry of External Relations to announce the launch of the U.S. – Brazil Aviation Partnership. The Aviation Partnership is a unique public-private partnership that is enhancing bilateral cooperation in areas such as airport expansion, airspace management, safety and security. These programs will support Brazil’s aviation infrastructure development priorities, while connecting U.S. companies to the growing business opportunities in the sector.
