(John Vormbaum) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 06:57:47 AM PST US From: "Kerry Johnson" Subject: Commander-List: Jeremy Johnson & FAA Action --> Commander-List message posted by: "Kerry Johnson" Hi all, I thought you might like a follow up as to what has been happening with Jeremy and his case with the FAA. Jeremy got a call from the Desert News last Friday asking him to comment on the letter Orrin Hatch had written to the FAA. Jeremy didn't know that Senator Hatch had written anything, so they emailed him a copy of the letter. Here's a copy of the letter the deseret news got ahold of from Senator Orrin Hatch to the administrator of the FAA: January 28, 2005 Administrator Marion Blakey Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Ave. S.W. Washington, D.C. 20591 Dear Administrator Blakey: I was extremely disappointed to learn that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating the conduct of Jeremy Johnson, a St. George, Utah, pilot who risked his life to help people stranded by severe flooding this month in Utah. Washington County experienced the worst flood in more than 100 years, and literally dozens of lives were saved because Jeremy responded to their call for help. He rescued a stranded family from harm, air-lifted food to many others to sustain them until more help could arrive, and, at the request of rescue workers, carried explosives to remove blockages on the river that contributed to the flooding. You can understand why I am upset to hear rumors that he may face fines and even lose his license because he failed to follow proper FAA protocol during this crisis. I would expect that you or anyone else in Jeremy's case would have done whatever was in your power to help people whose homes were washing away and whose lives were hanging in the balance. While I understand the well-intentioned reasons behind FAA rules, I would expect those like Jeremy would be rewarded with appreciation and recognition, not with fines and threats to remove their licenses. As they say, "desperate times call for desperate measures" and when local townspeople and authorities came to Jeremy with requests for help, he responded in kind. For this, he should be applauded. Given the extenuating circumstances surrounding the investigation of Jeremy, I am requesting that you take a personal interest in this investigation. I would be extremely disappointed to see Jeremy unjustly punished by the FAA for his heroic actions. I look forward to hearing from you on this important matter and learning what the FAA can do to help Jeremy and the citizens of southern Utah deal with the difficult task of recovering from such a devastating flood. Sincerely, Orrin G. Hatch United States Senator Haven't heard if the FAA has responded to Senator Hatch yet, but my guess is that they will. __________________________________ http://mobile.yahoo.com/maildemo ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:50:33 AM PST US From: "nico css" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Jeremy Johnson & FAA Action --> Commander-List message posted by: "nico css" I am sure the FAA will respond. This letter left no room for discretion by anyone. Good for sen. Hatch. There is some sense in D.C. after all. Please keep us posted.
