A significant outcome of this Act was the transfer of responsibilities to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) which was created to oversee and ensure safety in civil aviation. This shift centralized authority, allowing for consistent enforcement of safety regulations, certification of personnel and aircraft, and oversight of air traffic control, ultimately leading to improved safety standards across the aviation industry.
