Limits use of automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast data to improve air traffic safety and efficiency.
The PAPA Act of 2025 restricts the use of data from automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast systems to assist air traffic controllers in tracking aircraft and improving air traffic safety and efficiency. It prohibits the use of this data for revenue generation without consent from aircraft owners or operators. The Act also mandates that public-use airport owners or operators disclose cost reduction efforts, revenue sources, and airside safety project details before imposing fees on general aviation aircraft. Revenues from these fees can only be used for airside safety projects.
