Atlanta college aims to resolve issues in aviation program

ATLANTA (AP) — Officials at Atlanta Technical College say they're working to resolve issues found in an inspection by the Federal Aviation Administration, which recently ordered an emergency suspension of the school's aviation maintenance program.

Atlanta Technical said in a statement this week that the college is on track to become fully compliant with FAA requirements "and anticipates the restoration of its Air Agency Certificate."

In a Nov. 29 letter to the school, the FAA said it found that instructors at the college failed to maintain proper reports involving students, grades and attendance.

The school says it will again accept students into its aviation maintenance program once the FAA restores its aviation maintenance certificate.
