The same FAA that forces you to put liquid in your checked baggage unless you label it saline - yet insists that you only put Li-Ion batteries with the energy capacity of a grenade in the cabin.
That has for years resisted smoke hoods being required while deciding that aircraft that only fly upto 300mi offshore aren't really over water and don't need life rafts.
That increases spending on staff moral while cutting local ATC and is so far behind in it's plans for radar at small airports that it's not funny.
