students will prepare a case study of an aviation issue or event relevant to one

students will prepare a case study of an aviation issue or event relevant to one of the week’s assigned FARs. For example, the recent Southwest airlines maintenance problems would be a good subject for a FAR Part 121 case study.
Elements of the case study will include a summary of the issue or event, the applicability of the subject FAR, the FAA/NTSB interpretation of the implementation/violation of the subject FAR, and changes, if any, to the FAR as a result of the issue or event. The final element of the case studies will be a discussion of the student’s thoughts on the situation and the results.
These case studies are scholarly works, must show the applicability of the subject FAR to the identified issue or event, and will be written in the current APA style.
