Former FAA administrator Michael Huerta has joined the board of Delta Air Lines.
Huerta left the federal agency in January after serving a five-year term and was previously deputy administrator at the FAA.
"Michael’s deep aviation and broader transportation industry experience will be a great asset to Delta," said Frank Blake, Delta’s non-executive chairman.
Huerta also held various senior positions within the US Department of Transportation and was executive director at the Port of San Francisco.
