§ 1106 Public Hearing Required

This law says the board can’t give a pilot a fine, take away their license, or do anything like that unless they first hold a full, open public hearing.

Key Takeaways

  • •No fines or license actions can happen without a public hearing first.
  • •The hearing must be open and give everyone a chance to hear the case.
  • •The only exception is if the board follows the special rules in Section 1180.

Example

A pilot is accused of breaking a safety rule and the board wants to suspend their license.

Before the board can suspend the pilot’s license, they must hold a public meeting where everyone can hear the evidence and the pilot can speak.
