Not sure what (if anything) to read into this, good or bad...

In "gov speak" that's what they call kicking the can down the road.

Oh, I'm well aware...

This move comes in response to a formal request from several aviation organizations, including the AEA, Aeronautical Repair Station Association, Aviation Suppliers Association, Aviation Technician Education Council, Helicopter Association International, International Air Response Inc., Modification and Replacement Parts Association, and the National Air Transportation Association. These organizations jointly submitted the request on August 29, expressing the need for additional time to thoroughly review and assess the extensive amendments proposed by MOSAIC.

I'm mostly curious about this excerpt from the article, particularly the bolded statement.

In my opinion, if MOSAIC was truly a priority to these groups, the standard 90 day comment period is more-than-enough time to provide feedback. If those groups were unable-or-unwilling to provide feedback in a timely manner, then why should anyone sympathize with them?

Despite the 90 day extension, I managed to get my comments filed before the original deadline. For those interested in reading my filing, it can be found here:

Paul well thought out responses. I concur with your thoughts.
